Maybe try listening to the people it actually impacts?
One of them is right here telling you you’re wrong, and I’ve provided more than enough information for you to start understanding why. All you’re doing by refusing to listen, is reinforcing my point - you’re less concerned with how this will impact the living, existing, very real and already hugely marginalised and abused people it is aimed to “help”, and instead are only concerned with what is convenient for you to see within your own limited understanding of the legislation, the hostile environment in which it is being enacted, as well as your situation now, and hypothetically in the future.
So for a third and final time:
Maybe try listening to the people it actually impacts?
It doesn’t impact you, your viewpoint it entirely irrelevant. Nobody who is disabled will suddenly be euthanised, and the links you provided are summed up as “we want more dignity, fuck everyone else until we get ours” which i don’t respect.
As someone with lived experience of a family member who would’ve benefitted from this bill as I watched them take 3 months to die, forgetting who their own family members where, constantly being given incredibly strong painkillers, spending hours in convulsions as the tumors ate away at their brain, I can confidently say you are the one who should listen to people who this actually impacts, while they’re still able to advocate for themselves.
You’re actually straight wrong here. This is about terminal illness not disabilities.
Having less than 6 months to live is a requirement.
Calm yourself down and take your own advice and read it.
And before you lash out about me not understanding I have Crohn’s disease and type 1 diabetes. I am disabled and it affects my quality of life greatly.
I’m not sure if you’ve had to endure the torture that is watching someone die a slow and painful death but there is no dignity in it, only suffering. Allowing people to avoid 6 months of that is not a bad thing if they want to avoid it.
Is it really?
I’ll say it again:
