Yes and no.There is a perception of true randomness becasue “random” to Humans actually equates to “I dont see the pattern”.There is also NOT true randomness because everything occuring in the universe is effectively an ongoing reaction to an initial event and those reactions follow rules.It is because the overall reaction howver is so vast, so complex, and not comprehensible to us as a whole that it is considered random, just as a random number generator is not “truly” making a random number but simply utilizing patterns in complex additional patterns to produce an impression randomness.

If there was true randomness, it would have been whatever happened at the beginning of the universe.
