        I mean, technically, you are given with a chance to kill yourself every single moment. The reason why you’re alive is because you choose to continue living.

        But yeah, I didn’t have the option not to be born. I would’ve probably selected not to if I knew the world is this shitty and fucked. Lol.

          It’s all obvious yeah. We (choose to) live mostly because we don’t have those powers to know how shitty and fucked the world is going to become in the future. Some even realize they build their own future.

          Me, I think you are free to do anything with your life. But you are most likely missing a lot if you think the best thing to do is to end yourself, at any point.

      They seem to distance themself from anything in sarco-pod territory, though.

      Not much help when you’re “not suffering enough” but can’t get what you need. And things are only going to get worse in the near future.

      Wait until you have parents or other elderly loved ones that are slowly rotting and wasting away in front of you, unable to do anything to end their own suffering due to being severely incapacitated and then come back with that incredibly short-sighted belief. We give more compassion to the end-of-life of our pets than our elderly.

          didnt humans become dominant by our ability to form cohesive groups through social bonds?

                Why are you mad that I’m agreeing with you? I’m in favor of the right to choose your own death. I was adding that our ability to form cohesive groups and socially bond was itself an evolutionarily selected for trait seeing as how it’s been a main factor in our species’ ability to survive and thrive.

      Apply your logic to the concept of eating. It should be your right, but if you don’t have the strength to do it yourself then you don’t deserve it. Right?
