- Comment on Should parents be allowed to euthanize their children if they have a diagnosis that just isn't worth dealing with? 3 days ago:
A very thoughtful and considered response. I’d agree that if consent is not a factor, that, in all but some extreme cases (someone in a vegatitive state experiencing extreme suffering, for example), you should not kill someone without consent. I would disagree that only >18 year olds can give informed consent, it is an arbitrary age that is different in many countries and cultures. Perhaps an individual perspective rather than a flat cut off age would be more appropriate.
I apologise for implying that I was not aware disabled people were also killed by the Nazis, and well as Roma and Sinti, political dissidents, etc
I think we agree that assisted suicide should be able for the people who consent, it’s just a matter of the details of who exactly can consent.

Ah yes, ‘because the Nazis did it it’s bad’. You should explain why it’s had for its own sake. The Nazis had bad criteria, such as killing people for being ethnically Jewish or LGBT+, and didn’t factor consent of the person into it. But if the person consents to dying because they recognise their life is so bad, and it’s actually bad in an unfixable way, eg debilitated disability, what is morally wrong with that?

Oh, no, the leopard ate your face.
Why are you using Google in the first place, if you don’t want things like this?

That’s true for sure. Lemm.ee is better than some other instances in that regard, it’s federated to all the major ones. Lemmy.world also announced moderation changes recently, which seem to be going in a positive direction.

- Comment on what unbiased media sources do you use? 2 weeks ago:
I like Verity (formerly Improve The News) which collates the facts of a news story from multiple sources, then gives you multiple spins on it.
- Comment on I have to fly back home. My brother was forcebullay taken to the hospital for thirty days do to a mental attack. My quest is I have not carry on's or anything beside the ticket. Will the TSA target me 2 weeks ago:

No OP, but the question is flawed. Both can’t exist in the same universe according to the standard definition, unless you made a custom definition which would decide whether it can or not.

- Comment on These dames wanting inclusivity 3 weeks ago:
Fair enough. For me, any gendered language makes me dysphoric when I am not that gender. But of course gender is a very individual and personal thing.
- Comment on These dames wanting inclusivity 3 weeks ago:
Why would they want to be called, ‘boy’, ‘male’, etc then?
- Comment on What MMORPG are you playing, and why? 4 weeks ago:
I don’t usually like MMORPGs because I haven’t yet found one that hasn’t been spoiled with microtransactions and a toxic playerbase, so I just play Outside. I’m much more a fan of singleplayer, or multiplayer with friends games like Terraria, Stardew Valley, or Minecraft.

- Comment on Mitochondria 1 month ago:
This idea is overused as heavily dependant on which school you go to. My school taught a finance course, and gave advice on job seeking and interviews.
Also, mitochondria is usually taught at GCSE in the UK at least, which is not the last year of school. ‘Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell’ is very much a meme, it might have been interesting to use any other piece of useless information taught in schools instead.
