  Wasn’t the blackface thing decades ago?

  Still problematic sure but extremely disingenuous to present it in the present tense as if it’s happening right now (unless there’s something I don’t know).

      Well it’s mostly that at least a certain group with disabilities has access to a way out when life is too harsh. It is to limit unneeded suffering. A respectful way to end one’s life should be available to everyone, but that is a hard pill to swallow for many neurotypical / religious people.

      You don’t decide whether you are born, at least let us have more control over our own death.

      Framing this in a bad way is exactly what some conservative politicians and media want.

        You really need to look into how MAID is being used and who it’s being pushed on. To call it a “Assisted Dying” program is blatantly ignoring the harsh ways Canada abuses it and pushes it onto the poor especially.
