The trendiest 'take' on assisted dying at the moment: 'I support assisted dying in principle, just as long as we have a law that makes sure that nobody can ever avail themselves of it in practice'.
The only type of suicide prevention that our societies are genuinely interested in providing (apart from the type where they're just physically taking away the opportunity) is of the variety where they sit you in a room with someone who will try and gaslight and/or drug you into…

If they don't want to die; then they've no reason to be concerned, because it would always be voluntary. There's no reason why the 'suicidal' people who don't want to die should be able to deprive the option of an easy exit to those who sincerely do want to die. This smacks very…

You are not harmed by encountering a man in a dress. Clothes are not violence. Words are not violence. People holding ideas you don't like is not violence. Please try to be a competent adult who can cope with life & stop contributing to this infantilising culture of victimhood.

Hey everyone. As you may have noticed, a lot of Kay’s former cheerleaders are silent now Panorama has exposed the truth. Unfortunately for them, they can’t hide from justice [or me] — let’s hold them to account ⬇️ @JacquiDeevoy1 You’re up first ‼️
@unherd @Docstockk "Here, too, the fairly mindless invocation of freedom, autonomy, choice, control, rights, and other such happy-sounding phrases." Funny how those sneering at mindless invocations of autonomy are happy to uncritically hurl words like "safeguarding", "vulnerable", and "coercion"…
Here I respond to John Kleinig's article in which he argues in favor of limiting consent in the context of assisted death. My position is that if we own our bodies, we should be able to consent. Link below.
MPs are voting on the next stage of the assisted dying bill. This is their chance to create a legacy - @pollytoynbee theguardian.com/commentisfree/…
Help us spread the message: With just 48 hours until the next assisted dying debate, it's crucial to flood social media with support for law change. MPs must hear our call: When we cannot stay, let us choose how we go. One click can make a difference. Tag your MP in the…
The incentive given by the 'community tensions' model is to police those who are easily policed, rather than those infringing on the 'rights' of others. Groups seen as higher risk win state enforcement for their blasphemy laws, and greater latitude for their behaviour.

@AshleyAFrawley The religious right love using woke arguments to oppose the right to die, because people will no longer accept having their liberties restricted based on overtly religious doctrines. To their credit, they have been phenomenally successful at duping the woke left into opposing it,…
@historykev It never ceases to amaze me how often you (and others) make this claim while referencing a government report that explicitly concludes that the cost savings are negligible. And the report was commissioned in response to a concern that #maid would be too expensive.

With regards to the right to die, my argument is not that the government should be helping us to die (though I'm not against that), it is that they shouldn't be forcing people to live. All the arguments about distrusting how the government might abuse assisted dying to get rid of…

I'm blocked by @caitskirby, so can't respond in thread. But if you believe that there is a "why" at all, then that's a religious belief. The most likely explanation is that we're here for no purpose, because of unintelligent and random forces.
