People have blamed each other for many reasons throughout history. The idea that we should only blame them if they made a free will choice is a recent development that was a result of a lot of discussion until we finally settled on this current criteria. Saying we should only hold people morally responsible if they have made a free will choice is not the same thing as saying they really are morally responsible.

The whole world : by free will we mean X
The philosophers : by free will the whole world means Y
The whole world : no we don't
The philosophers : do too
The whole world : nuh uh
The philosophers : do too times a thousand
The whole world : do not times a kajillion billion
The philosophers : we have degrees in philosophy so we are right
The whole world : appeal to authority fallacy
The philosophers : hey, we invented the appeal to authority fallacy
The whole world : you also redefined free will just to prove compatibilism
The philosophers : did not
The whole world : did too
The philosophers : nuh uh

Determinism says that every single thing that happens down to the tiniest detail is determined (it's in the name) by antecedent (past) causes. Every eye blink, every burp, the number of grains of sand in the Andromeda galaxy, everything. Forget about the entailment definition, that's a redefinition.

Fatalism only says that various final results will happen but how it happens is not necessarily determined. It may be your fate to move to Seattle, but there are many possible ways that can happen.

Libertarian free will is what every human being including you experiences every waking moment of our lives.

It is not free will that you are not experiencing. It is freedom from fate. That is not the same thing as not experiencing free will.

Whether our choices really are undetermined is another question and is debatable. That you experience free will is not. Even if you believe that free will is an illusion, and it might be, all the same you still have to make up your mind.
