It is transparent to me that, following the common slippery slope fallacy (where the fallacy is that there isn't any sort of slippery slope going on), euthanasia is sold to the masses as compassionate, end-with-dignity solution to painful, messy and cruel situations of terminal illness and hopeless medical situations just for then the "right" to be extended just to matters of "personal choice" such as depression, financially hopeless situations or mental illness, which is yet another neoliberal ruse to sugar coat cost cuts on public health. And is one of the many strategies employed (trans issues and tax funded trans surgeries being another one) to tank public health and national healthcare systems.
God damned neo liberals cannot understand that state resources don't need to be cost-effective as long as it benefits the public who actually fucking pay taxes for a reason other than funding never ending wars in the Middle East and socialism for mega corporations.
Waving the "personal choices" flag for people who due to mental illness and financial downturn are in a desperate situation and want to end their lives when ending their lives is the only option the state has for them, and not only the state is not providing the means for them bettering their lives -as they have a right for as taxpayers- but actively colluding with financial cartels and megacorporations in worsening their lives is disingenous, cynical and makes me MATI.
I know the average american mind is unable to process this and will wave the freeloaders, the Chantals, the Chris chans and the Kevin Gibes as decisive arguments against the welfare system without taking into consideration how many of these cases are actually the end result of a lack of, or failure of, a proper welfare system, be it on the matter of education, public (mental) health or whatever.
So yeah, even if Keffals was born middle class and is, or was before he started a grifting career out of internet underage troons, in poverty mostly due to personal choices, he is absolutely right on this one and his personal choices were misinformed by a particularly perverse milieu in the best of cases.
Send moais this way, I don't fucking care.
