Ah yeh its remember hearing about that, its hard to believe it's true on one hand, but on the other, it would be a very Trump thing to do

Good piece in the @bigissue.com, and not just because it includes me, about the ramifications of Farage's utterly abhorrent deportation plans, and the wider impacts which they would have. These are not serious policies for solving any genuine issues. www.bigissue.com/news/politic...

You make a good point. I think there are a number of truths here. Lack of neuroplasticity certainly does make older people more resistant to adapt to change. I think what's important above anything else is people communicate. Older learn from younger and vice versa

A lot of people are talking about taking up arms but I get the feeling it's exactly what Trump wants so he can also a label on them and have an excuse for harsh measures against any democrats
Jodes 🇬🇧 (@jodes81.bsky.social) reply parent
People are talking about rising up with violence, taking the 2nd amendment. But this seems to be a trap that trump wants. While he'll be sitting safe in a bunker somewhere, all the blues will have labels slapped on them justifying harsher measures

We should all have the right to choose how and when we die. People against this philosophy come up with all sorts of excuses as to why it shouldn't be, but they're rubbish, not acceptable. We think of ourselves as advanced, with all our laws, culture and technology but this issue holds us back

Jodes 🇬🇧 (@jodes81.bsky.social) reply parent
That's nothing to do with euthanasia. That's standard end of life practice, called the "double effect" which has existed long before euthanasia
Jodes 🇬🇧 (@jodes81.bsky.social) reply parent
If a system is already extreme and needs several modifications and progressive, careful revisions then I can see why you'd argue it's a slippery slope. It's not. Its carefully crafted revisions are done precisely to make sure there's no abuse
Jodes 🇬🇧 (@jodes81.bsky.social) reply parent
You're hell bent on depriving people from the right to die and are looking for any spurious things to back up your weak arguments

Research examining two decades of euthanasia in the Netherlands consistently finds no evidence of a slippery slope, particularly regarding abuse or expanded use without consent. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...
Jodes 🇬🇧 (@jodes81.bsky.social) reply parent
That's just one isolated case and has nothing to do with euthanasia laws. Murders happen in all walks if life. If someone decides to murder someone,it will happen with or without euthanasia laws

Because money is poured into these flawed studies to get the result they want, driven by a pro life agenda. When different studies conflict, you have to take a common sense approach
Jodes 🇬🇧 (@jodes81.bsky.social) reply parent
That's just propaganda
Jodes 🇬🇧 (@jodes81.bsky.social) reply parent
No one will have the right to murder others. That's not how the definition of murder works. States and countries that have enacted euthanasia have very clear boundaries that make murder very distinct from euthanasia and many robust safeguards are out into place to prevent a slippery slope
Jodes 🇬🇧 (@jodes81.bsky.social) reply parent
You're quite happy to drive a car, in spite of the number of deaths it causes, victims who wanted to live, and for what, convenience? I'm advocating for a certain significant vulnerable group of people not to be forced through unending amounts of unbearable suffering
Jodes 🇬🇧 (@jodes81.bsky.social) reply parent
You're trying to prevent a whole group of vulnerable people getting certain rights, which makes it the definition of oppressive

Dying by suicide as it stands requires extreme risk taking, extreme courage, and extreme tolerance to pain. Enough religios "sanctity of life" BS, time to embrace "good life, good death". Have you ever tried to kill yourself? Any idea how hard and risky it is?
Jodes 🇬🇧 (@jodes81.bsky.social) reply parent
Driving cars has risks, yet you're willing to put up with all those deaths for what, convenience? What I'm talking about is preventing unbearable suffering and giving people a choice. The risks of abuse are minimal. Reduction of suffering would be enormous. Optimise it to prevent abuse
Jodes 🇬🇧 (@jodes81.bsky.social) reply parent
I want the right to die where, when, and how I want. Noone should be forced through unbearable suffering. Nobody should have the right to die taken away from them
Jodes 🇬🇧 (@jodes81.bsky.social) reply parent
Fk off. I want the right to die. If you don't, then you clearly haven't remotely suffered as much as you should have. Just wait til you have unbearable suffering, you'll wish you hadn't used euthanasia as a pawn in whatever game you're playing

Jodes 🇬🇧 (@jodes81.bsky.social) reply parent
1. You clearly haven't suffered yet as much as many people are forced to. Come back to me once you've explored options for dying. 2. Euthanising countries have evidence to show abuse frequency is basically zero given safeguards. 3. You're scaremongering on zero evidence
