    I’m waiting the “pro life” crowd to start talking about assisted end of life, but so far is not even a talking point

      They already are.

      It’s specifically targeted in project 2025, making it federally illegal. The wording is such that they say assisted suicide for the terminally ill lacks dignity. Marvel at that bizarre phrasing for a moment.

      Drowning in your own lungs is usually where the prolonged dying process goes. Pain. Anxiety. Panic. But assisted suicide, easing out safely, by choice, with less pain, is the part that lacks dignity according to the theocracy part of our incoming government.

      It’s so bizarre to think about, that 74million voted for this very thing, in states that turned red, like Montana.

        We obviously discussed this during Thanksgiving and sincerely the talking points where asburd. Told them that is not being a right winger but thinking this 78 Y. O. Senile MF is going to help them in any way is just a joke and they’re a bunch of broke clowns.

        I just find it funny they don’t want it to be. Wouldn’t they rather have the “liberals” kill themselves? Even my own right wing parents have told me over the years they’d rather me smother them with a pillow than slowly die in pain and suffering.

          It’s not that kind of suicide, you have to be plausibly within 6mos of death. They’re dying anyway. If anything, taking assisted suicide away is simply a method for torturing people and even causing their families pain.
