You don’t seem to have any hope at all. The stuff you’re talking about is wildly dystopian, and hopefully would just be rejected in any meaningful democracy.
You want to know what prescribed dying looks like? Look at any autocracy, see their political prisoners dying in jail or by execution.
If the majority of a population want reasonable MAID rights, then it’s within their democratic right to get it. The rejection of this is autocracy by ignoring the popular will.
- wakawaka28 2y agoI'm saying that there isn't much space between assisted dying and prescribed dying. People will be diagnosed with mental issues and encouraged to kill themselves. If you're a political troublemaker then that will definitely happen. I might be a pessimist but I don't think I'm wrong. Everything tends to be abused, especially when it involves government. So be careful what you wish for and watch for tyranny at every turn.
