Civilization creates the need for suicide and euthanasia

[DEATH IS FREEDOM]

No other creature than the domesticated man puts up with so much noise and fumes, which is not good for the health. No other species than man puts up with pollution, wars and overpopulation, which man himself has created. No other animal than the domesticated man has to put up with so much unnecessary and pointless suffering: years or decades of chronic pains, chronic diseases, chronic disabilites, injuries, age ailments, bullying, injusticies, poverty and involuntary loneliness - only to wait out a death of old age (voluntary or forced). Human life expectancy has doubled since the1800s. In the society of today, most people die a slow and painful death after being tormented for many years. Civilization consists of much suffering. However, domesticated pets and livestock get the best death - they are euthanized to avoid pointless suffering. In nature, animals and humans live and die more naturally than in the society. In nature, death is neither illegal nor taboo. In nature, animals and humans die of external causes before they become old and disabled. There is rarely any reason for suicide in nature. Civilization is the reason why suicide and euthanasia are needed. Why force humans to suffer and grow old regardless of how life turns out for them when we are all going to die anyway? Why treat people worse than pets?

Yeah... The irony right?

Humanity pushed us into suicides more than anything else did and they act like good samaritans. They are trying to "prevent" suicides and in turn, again, their "methods" actually put nails on our coffins.

It's really so horrible how assisted suicide isn't legalised for our species, I despise how so many see suffering as something to prolong no matter what. The option of a guaranteed peaceful exit from this existence would be such a relief, it would prevent so much unnecessary harm and torment.

To me humans truly are the worst species with how they so tragically force life here and wish to imprison them in this futile existence where they are expected to suffer senselessly until they die anyway. Existence truly is hell and we are being punished all because other people were selfish enough to procreate.

I often wonder if the members of the barely and the last uncontacted tribes in the amazon have their share of mental health issues. Whether they have them at all or whether they are still just expected to get on with it.

It is like being in an abusive relationship with somebody else, and they try to drag you back to them every time you attempt to leave. They do not realize that their behavior and mistreatment are the reasons why you want to leave them in the first place, or perhaps they are aware, but they do it anyway out of some need to exert power over you; either way the escapee is left feeling awful and guilty.

I think giving people the right to an easy death would actually improve society a lot. Might actually lead to more people being happy because they know they can have the easy option to quit at any time. Might push people to try harder at life since they feel more in control.
