Don't ever thank these people for the crumbs of attention they give MAID
Don't praise politicians for giving you scraps
Critique until you get results
and then keep critiquing
The people being starved to death aren't impressed by a 50 or 100 dollar raise here or there and if you "speak for them" you sell them out when you celebrate being handed scraps
Don't take their word for it
There is no winning
It's not appropriate to celebrate, ever
Apply pressure
I was taught by those who fought for women's votes
Ignore the interview questions; ignore the small victories
If they ever give you a platform say what you came there to say and don't blunt it
This is the grind; there will be no reward other than pride, pride you fought for

You can't both suggest that Minister Lametti understands #MAID and also that isn't a valid response to suicidal ideation (at least under "certain conditions")
He's the one who tabled the amendments we are discussing
One of the really depressing things about #MAID is that media only considers centering Disabled people in the process of applying
As long as Disabled perspectives only matter as part of a bludgeon against political opponents we will not know truth in media about this issue
As long as we ignore the mass disabling event and call obviously covid-related deaths/sickness "mysterious" flus and "strange" excess death
We are erasing Disability from public view
In the age of pandemic eugenics, everyone must hide disability or order to avoid upsetting the eugenicists who insist that we cater to abled, white, hetero people and structure our entire society around redirecting resources towards their success and future
"The most comprehensive survey of psychiatrists on the topic to date showed most psychiatrists who responded oppose euthanasia for sole mental illness"
"However, many(psychiatrists) are also reluctant to speak out since they fear potential backlash ... " mileniostadium.com/temas-de-capa/…
"Remember that the public has been told MAiD is supposed to be for “irremediable” medical conditions (i.e. when we can predict the condition will not improve). In terms of science and evidence, it is clear that there is no science or evidence that mental illness can be predicted"
If you wanted to wait for the election now you have the worst of both worlds; pissed everyone off both infection advocates and everyone who wasn't gaslighted into giving up
Are you saying that vaccinations aren't enough to control the spread of covid?
You mean to tell me we've just given it 2 years and millions of infections to evolve into something we are less able to control?

Proposed "Mental Health" Pipeline
1: You struggle with ideations
2: You attempt and are detained against your will
3: After 6 months of isolation from society in custody you are offered a "mercy death"
Does that sound like autonomy?

Proposed "Criminal Justice" Pipeline
1: Commit a crime that leads to more than 6 months imprisonment
2: Offered access to a "mercy death" if you consent
What differences does this proposed "solution" have from the death penalty? What similarities?
