Please consider donating to the Open Medicine Foundation to help people suffering from extremely disabling and underfunded lifelong illnesses with no know treatment.
that explains it then, sorry for the misunderstanding!
Unfortunately, this applies to 99% of people in power I know of, if they think they’ll get away with it, they’ll do it.
You don’t usually get into places of power by being thoughtful and considerate.
I did a degree that was “social data science” and we were part both of the computer science and the social science department, so to me it isn’t shocking a study like this might be attributed to the computer science department.
You don’t have to? I’ve never given axios my email. In fact I’ve never seen an email popup on axios, though I do have a content blocker.
Analysing lots of data.
Kind of study we call social data science.
That article isn’t paywalled.
But an archive link is useful nonetheless.
That’s what it feels like to me.
It’s something like “Live as if you weren’t disabled because you making your disability visible bothers me. And if you’re unable to do that, well either stay in an institution where you belong or if you can’t afford that you should just die”
As a disabled person you’re spot on.
It’s the kind of people saying that disabled people should just “get on with their life” and stop “making everything about their disability”.
Like yeah sure Bradley, I would do that, if I could get on with my life because c*nts like you didn’t deny every attempt at making the world accessible. Maybe if people like you didn’t complain every time a cent was spent on an accessibility fund or on medical research I would actually be able to be getting on with my life.
But no, since we’re treated like shit I have to make “everything about my disability” just for my basic survival. Because if I don’t I’ll just be left in a ditch to starve.
We need to start holding companies accountable when their actions lead to someone’s suicide.
I’d slap him. I don’t fucking care, I’m dying from societal neglect and welfare failings and like literally 0.00001% of his wealth could fix all my problems, you have to be inherently selfish to hoard all that wealth (not to mention be inherently evil to get it in the first place).
(this is a joke, I wouldn’t put it past Musk for suing for verbal assault or something)
He’s sucking upto Musk lol

Britain and the US have army bases in Germany ever since WW2
For some reason a lot of leftists are extremely ableist and fail to listen to disabled people’s experiences. (It’s even worse on the right of course, but you’d have expected the left to be less discriminatory)
“Assisted dying” has historically been used to genocide disabled people against their will and there still are massive problems with how it is currently implemented.
So you think when an imperial country tried to invade another one against the people’s will they should just accept it?
There are many more americans in Ukraine’s foreign legion than the Russian.
These were personal stories shared to me by friends and family of loved ones whom this happened too.
But a quick duckduckgo search shows a bunch of results
such as this article
The reports have received international attention for what they highlight, including patients being euthanized despite untreated mental illness and addictions, unclear medical diagnoses and suffering fuelled by housing insecurity, poverty and social marginalization. https://theconversation.com/maid-and-marginalized-people-coroners-reports-shed-light-on-assisted-death-in-ontario-241661
Artificial Scarcity
I’ve hearf of multiple disabled people who were “forced” into this. Because they were not able to survive on their own on disability income (which was below poverty wage) and therefore “chose” euthanasia.
(I’m not Canadian and have never been to Canada, but these are experiences that were shared in the disability advocacy org I used to work for)
I’m guessing your subtly criticising people who support Ukraine’s defence from Russian imperialism?
Just a hunch, if not, I’m sorry, a lot of people who support Russian imperialism on lemmy.
His accent is literally the last thing that matters about him.
It matters more that he’s literally the richest guy in the world, a massive cunt, massively power hungry, and barely american.
