Comment on Hundreds of Brits used website to look for ‘suicide partner’
Emperor@feddit.uk 3 months agoI suspect I’ve got a bad read on this, but I mean… if you’re going to do it, wouldn’t you want someone to do it with too? Companionship in those final moments?
I’d have thought that the least worst answer is to legalise assisted dying. It won’t be easy getting the balance right, and I know disability campaigners are especially concerned about it, but it has to be better than having a “suicide buddy” website that is wide open to abuse.

Yeah. Got to be better. Also rather than banning this website, wouldn’t it be better to look into what is driving people to suicide? I’m guessing a lot of it is social, health and economic conditions that could be addressed by government if they truly cared and weren’t just moralising.
