      I'm against the state criminalizing suicide, but I'm even more against the state enabling suicide. capitalism rests on the fiction that we willingly chose the cruelty and indignity that the system enacts upon us. when this is extended to death, it just becomes another method for culling social chaff.

        Suicide and euthanasia are separated things.

        Counterpoint: "I've got opinions and stuff" is not a valid reason to force people who live in immense suffering to continue to suffer without recourse.
