Even if that's true, there's a bootstrap paradox with that though because the decision was still made in the decision making part of your brain. So what made that part of your brain make that decision?

What it implies is that decision making is entirely subconscious and the whole conscious experience of making a decision is just our brains way of providing a sense of agency where none seems to actually exist. You really wanna bake your noodle look into split brain experiments. There might be more than one person in our heads.
