You can still become a powerful world leader believing in fatalism and you can be a nobody believing in fatalism. There is no free will. Free will is all about the ego - I am weak so I must train to become stronger. See how that works out for you? I have no money so I must become Andrew Tate and scam people or start many businesses. It is all pride and ego, this free will. Fatalism is accepting life for what it is - fate. It frees you from your selfish desires, from your selfish goals, from ambition. Those are evil and from Satan. Fatalism is accepting that you are perfect the way you are and that nothing need be changed.
No need to be hyperbolic. Just because someone works out doesn’t mean they want to look like Arnold. Just because someone wants to work doesn’t mean they want to scam their way into becoming some Andrew Tate clone. The ratio of honorable workers out there in the world to dishonorable is probably about 100-1 or even higher

What you are doing is picking what you see as undesirable outcomes on some polarized edge of the spectrum of people as an excuse to not try. Comes across to me as lazy, not enlightened
