You're so off on this one.

My Trump voting evangelical mother who has quite conservative social opinions says that if she ever gets Alzheimer's as bad as her mother had, she wants us to shoot her in the head. And I don't think she's kidding in the spirit of wanting to die rather than waste away without knowing who she is for years while someone else changes her underwear.

Really, I have to wonder how you got it in your head that this is left-right.



Fair point. Sorry if I didn’t find more accurate wording. It’s not so much about politics per se, but about woke “i am the center of the world” mentality and set of values.

It is so happens that in Canada they often go hand in hand with extreme leftist and extreme radical atheistic ideologies.


Some people do actually shoot other people in the head, not just saying it.

But we put such enthusiasts in jail right?

There is no big ethical difference here.
