I think this is about as simple as overall left vs right debate which it is a part of. There is no "right" or "wrong" here, just "right" and "left". It's a matter of who wins, and both sides have their reasons to play hard to win.

I hope assisted suicide never becomes legal here. It’s just another way for society to fail.

Is there evidence that society fails?

db48x · 9h ago

What, aside from history?

quantified · 3h ago

Please elaborate. Which society or societies, when?

yawpitch · 9h ago

You’re assuming that a society without the right to die isn’t already in a failure state.
