Nine out of ten people who attempt suicide and survive will not go on to die by suicide at a later date
There is a difference between attempting suicide and you letting someone stop you from jumping out of the window. That statistic is meant for people who actually attempted suicide.
Also, I thought you said that you would stop replying and that our convo ended? So you're a liar on top of being pro life?
So? Doesn't mean you can't make the best out of life
And be ignorant to the suffering that is happening around the world every day? No thanks.
It changed somethings. We have had great advancements in medicine over the past 100 years alleviating the suffering of many.
I'm sure that helped the millions of people that get killed every year.
But according to you, since we can't alleviate all suffering we should all just cease to exist.
I never said that. Stop putting words into my moutn.
Yes that's why you need a middle ground approach that covers both cases. That middle ground approach isn't "hey you want to die? Ok die. Byeeee"
Did you not listen to me? A middle ground approach is not possible here, because euthanasia isn't legalized everywhere and suicidal people are looked down upon. Society is full of pro life people, so why should I go with a middle ground approach here?
Wow great point. I'm gonna look at all the great thinkers, philosophers that ever lived and call them brainwashed because they didn't ctb the moment they were born
Wow great point, I'm gonna look at all the suffering that is happening around the world and call life beautiful because I'm a ignorant and selfish person.
Having a family, kids, romance, marriage
Okay, so forcing someone into existence and a life of suffering is beautiful in your eyes?
You know the normal life things that brainwashed people do that don't consider killing themselves the moment they were born?
Right, because I'm not brainwashed enough to consider forcing someone into existence. I know how unfair and cruel life is, I'm not selfish enough to think "I don't care, I want a child so I will force it into existence and a life of slavery".
But it's so pointless to you so why try at all right?
I'm not trying any of those things.
After all we are gonna die anyways right?
Thanks Sherlock.
Juvenile understanding of life
Said the pro-lifer who considers forcing someone into a life of suffering as beautiful.
Doesn't mean you can't make the best out of life even if you think it's pointless in the end
Where is the point in doing something that you know is pointless? What rational person would close an eye to the suffering around the world and say "Anyway, I'll make the best out of life, while you guys in the warzones/abusive households, etc, can go ahead and keep suffering".
Lol "life is pointless" take is literal im14andthisisdeep take
Lol "life is beautiful" take is literal im40andbrainwashedprolifer take
But you are smarter than all the great writers and philosophers who lived who "slaved away" their pointless lives. Okay.
Yes because their writing and philosophy helped the world so much, am I right? Millions of people get killed every day, millions of children get abused, millions of animals get killed, but because some dudes wrote things, you are like "abuse, rape, and murder may happen everywhere any day but anyways, those guys wrote great books so life isn't pointless"? Okay.
Then these people should get euthanesia. But you argued before that anyone who wishes to die should? That's not exactly the same thing.
So people who never suffered in their lives should get euthanasia, but people who suffered and decided after many years that they want to die, shouldn't get euthanasia? Where is the logic in that?
I'm pro choice given the fact that there is a rational suicide. A child coming to you and saying they want to die is not a rational suicide.
Again, why do you act like the suffering/feelings of a 13 year old are less valid than the suffering/feelings of a 23 or 33 year old? Suffering is still suffering, feelings are still feelings. Many people who end up committing suicide later in their life, already had suicidal tendencies at a young age.
But you would let them die anyways right, after all their word matters so much and there is literally no way to help them right?
I didn't say it like that so I don't know why you keep putting words into my mouth.
You are the opposite side of the same coin
Not really. I'm not brainwashed, nor pro-life.
For some people it is. For some it isn't. It's in the eye of the beholder
???? Death and suffering are facts. It's not "for some people" nor "in the eye of the beholder".
You don't see because you don't want to see
Just like you don't see the suffering that is happening every day around the world.
You are okay with letting kids commit suicide
You are manipulative as fuck. Stop putting words into my mouth. I'm not "okay" with it. I said that I myself want to die since I'm 13 and now that I'm in my mid 20s, things have only gotten worse over the years. Like I told you, life isn't for everyone, recovery isn't possible for everyone and even if recovery is possible, not everyone wants to recover, not everyone wants to go through the time, effort, and pain to recover.
I already understood your pro death beliefs before
I'm pro choice.
There is nothing about them that's rational.
Just like there is nothing rational about forcing someone into existence. Crazy huh?
Your brain doesn't even develop till you are 25
And yet 18 is the age of adulthood.
let alone your perspective on life changes drastically
Only for some people. Not for everyone.
But why giving them a chance to see if they can turn things around
Because not everyone can recover and not everyone wants to recover. That's why I'm pro choice. It's their decision.
Just like a parent lets their child die by forcing them into existence.
If they hate life and don't want to live and can't change things go ahead let them ctb
It's their decision.
You are the one that's advocating for not letting them change things
You are the one that's advocating for not respecting their wish.
What you are advocating for is the moment someone claims" I want to die" is letting them die which is pro death
No, that's pro choice: It means respecting someone's wish and decision. Being pro-death would be more like "everyone should die, nobody should live, etc", I don't think that.
Why is it always forcing someone into existence and suffering with you guys? They can live a happy life with some bumps down the road. That's not a life of suffering.
Because bringing a child into this world means that you're putting them under the risks of abuse, rape, murder, and literally every possible way of suffering. It also means that your child has to die no matter what, that your child has to go to school, go to work, and basically slave away for 50+ years just to be able to afford the bare minimum, that they have to experience illnesses, pain, etc. What I'm saying is that being dead and unable to suffer, is far more attractive in my eyes, than the things life has put me through. Even if I was happy, life wouldn't be worth it. It's cruel to force someone into existence because if you don't lack brain cells then you should know how unfair life is, how much suffering is happening around the world every day, etc. Even if I wasn't suicidal because of what I went through, the injustices of this world are enough for me to still prefer death.
And if you enjoy what you are doing are you still slaving away?
I don't know anyone who genuinely enjoys their job so I wouldn't know. What I know is that most people only work for money, not because they enjoy their job.
Oh no, someone thinks someone who enjoys going to their 9-5 job and doesn't think about ctb as brainwashed.
You said "and even if they slave away, they may love it", as if any rational person would ever go to work if they got no money out of it.
Yes they love being a slave to companies, they go to work, come home see their family and decide to go to work again.
The fact that they see nothing wrong with doing the same bullshit every day for decades just to be able to afford the bare minimum, makes them brainwashed.
Who are you to tell them otherwise?
I'm not telling them anything, I won't even bother with it, they are beyond help.
"I enjoy what i do"
"But you are a slave to companies haven't you thought of that?"
"Nah I just enjoy doing this work and idc"
"Oh no you are brainwashed you are supposed to hate slavery"
"Haha no"
Brilliant logix
You sure love putting words into other people's mouths.
It's more like:
Person A.: "I enjoy what I do, slaving away, and ignoring the suffering that is happening around the world"
Person B: "But you are a slave to companies, haven't you thought of that?"
Person A: "Nah I just enjoy being a ignorant brainwashed slave, idc about the people who suffer, it's not my life"
Person B: "Wtf is wrong with you"
I knew pro death people are on the forum
Where?
Again, your perspective on things doesn't matter to people who don't share that perspective.
It doesn't matter if they don't share my perspective, death and suffering are both facts that can't be denied by anyone.
They have their own lives so they can decide what's good and what's bad ok?
I never said otherwise.
You thinking it's wrong to slave away your life for companies is your own personal idea
Ok.
, plenty of people don't think that way and enjoy earning money and spending it on things
I don't know anyone who would go to work if they didn't earn money from it, do you?
Well first, if you have a family then you are just spreading that suffering onto other people
You and your guilt tripping again. Well first, nobody asked to be born, so everyone should have the right to die, and the whole "don't do it, think about how it will affect others" argument is just disgusting and selfish. If someone decides to ctb then the family (the parents) have nobody to blame but themselves because they were the ones who forced that person into existence, and I know from many suicidal people, that their parents are the reason as to why they want to die in the first place, because their parents abused them.
Second, not everyone lives a life of suffering
Second, just because not everyone lives a life of suffering, doesn't mean that suffering isn't happening every day around the world.
There is no logic behind dying now because you will die later anyway. Why not see what you can do in life instead of killing yourself?
Because it's not worth the suffering and pain.
Some people enjoy life believe it or not. And they aren't brainwashed
I know.
Their existence can be beautiful and peaceful
"Can", not "will be". And even then, nobody should have the right to force someone into existence, just like nobody should have the right to murder another person.
No what's better is:
"I want to die"
"Ok bye"
Which one is more cruel? At least when you tell that to someone you can make them rethink their actions and point them toward recovery and they can recover
I see your point but like I said, I'm pro choice, so I'm someone who respects others wish/decision to die. If they want to die, good. If they want to recover, good. And if they don't want to recover, that's also good. Recovery isn't for everyone, not everyone can recover, not everyone wants to recover, many suicidal people don't want to reach old age.
I know there isn't but what you are arguing for isn't middle ground it's a pro death society
You're the one arguing for a pro-life society though. I'm pro-choice, someone who respects others wish/decision to die if they want to die, not someone who would tell another person "yeah, go kys". I would never act like that.
So you are using some bad facts about the world to basically justify people not helping people alleviate their suffering and instead basically death as a way out?
People are literally pumping out babies left and right everywhere in the world just because of pleasure, and you think that life is something so special that you shouldn't be allowed to die unless you try to recover?
no, some suffering is unpleasant but it goes away and you get better. Some suffering is permanent
Suffering is suffering.
What you are advocating for is that anyone who suffers who considers death be allowed to die instead of letting them get help first to see if they can change things around. Like I said. Pro death.
I'm pro choice. You are pro-life. The fact that euthanasia isn't legalized everywhere and people like you treat suicide as this evil thing, tells me, that we are living in a very pro-life planet. What I'm advocating for is that anyone who suffers and considers death, should be allowed to die, because it's their life and their decision, because they didn't ask to be born, so it's cruel and sadistic that people like you are forcing other people who don't want to live, to live. Again, not everyone can recover and not everyone wants recover. The fact that suicidal people are forced to pick painful methods is because euthanasia isn't legalized everywhere and that's because of people like you.
Some people seek out suffering because they like to overcome things. Doesn't make them sadistic
Suffering is physical or mental pain that a person/animal feels. Someone who loves suffering is a masochist. No normal person "seeks out" suffering.
Yes because death is tragic and it brings grief and suffering to other people
AGAIN WITH THE GUILT TRIPPING LMAO. Why is death tragic to you? It's just as important as life. Anyway, nobody asked to be born, so everyone should have the right to die, and the fact that you bring up the whole "it will affect others" guilt trip bullshit is seriously annoying, because it shows that you are more concerned about their feelings than the feelings of the suicidal person.
I am all for legalisation do euthanesia everywhere but with some restrictions
Such as?
I know you would be for euthanesia for anyone though without any restrictions
I'm pro choice which means that I'm someone who respects others wish/decision to die, unlike you.
which would ultimately create disaster as little kids would die and people why could overcome things would choose death instead.
Little kids would never get their hands on euthanasia unless their parents are incompetent people who should have never been parents in the first place. Oh wait...
But that is what you want probably.
Nah. I'm not as manipulative as you are.
So just because some animal species died before we should wipe ourselves out because we are so bad and terrible?
You're the one who said "bUt hOw haSnT hUmAnItY dIeD oUt aFtEr sO mAnY yEaRs?" after I told you how much humanity has infected and destroyed this planet. That's why I brought up all the animal species that have died out BECAUSE of humans.
Not a pro lifer like I said. I am about pro choice but with some evaluation so that people impulsively don't kill themselves.
I highly doubt that. Since you come with the same guilt trip arguments which pro-lifers constantly come up with.
You on otherhand are pro death
I'm pro-choice.
because life is meaningless to you so anyone who suffers shouldn't get help but instead should die
I'm pro-choice which means that I'm someone who respects others wish/decision to die, not someone who thinks that everyone should die or whatever. And again, help isn't possible for everyone, nor does everyone want help, nor does eveeyone need help, because "help" isn't really help to begin with.
Very good you clarified that.
Thanks.
Their perspective on life is different.
The perspective on life stays the same or many people.
Brain doesn't develop until 25.
And yet the adulthood age is 18.
And yet many adults who lack brain cells pump out babies like there is no tomorrow just because of pleasure.
Why does suicide require a developed brain, but giving birth doesn't?
Like I said. You are pro life, I'm pro choice.
If a child said that to you you wouldn't actually help them recover you would just say ok this child doesn't want to live. It's better to let them die. It's what they want after all
How many times do I need to tell you that not everyone can recover and that not everyone wants to recover? How many times do I need to tell you that the suffering and feelings of a 13 year old are just as valid as the suffering/feelings of someone older than him? If a suicidal child came up to me, I wouldn't tell them to go ahead and do it, because that would mean I'm pro-death, which I'm not.
Unfortunately that's our world.
That's not an excuse. Also, "unfortunately that's our world" should also be applied to suicide then. Because again, forcing someone into existence is a lot more wrong.
Doesn't mean everyone is suffering.
Suffering is happening everywhere around the world every day. Just because not every of the over 8 billions people are suffering, doesn't mean that life on this planet isn't full of suffering.
Doesn't mean everyone can't enjoy it
They don't.
Some people don't consider it slaving away, they enjoy raising kids, seeing them grow, go to college, get jobs. You know non suicidal people things?
Right, some people lack the brain cells to consider working every day for decades, just to be able to afford the bare minimum, as slaving away. There is nothing admirable about the whole "raising their kids, seeing them grow" stuff. That's literally their job, as they forced those kids into existence. And going to college and get jobs? Really? "Oh I'm so happy that my child joined the work life where they have to slave away for the rest of their life just to be able to afford being alive". Yikes.
According to you, everyone who is non suicidal and doesn't want to leave the world is brainwashed
According to me? I never said anything like that, can you stop being such a manipulative leech? It's seriously annoying. I'm well aware of people who genuinely enjoy living. I never said anything about them. By the way you're talking to me, to your guilt trip arguments, to your pro-life views, to your manipulative ways of putting words into my mouth, I never want to discuss with you again after this is over.
Insane thinking absolutely.
Right, you.
Every great man or woman that ever lived and didn't kill themselves were just brainwashed according to you because they didn't see that life is suffering and there is no point
Holy shit. Stop putting words into other people's mouths. First of all, define "every great man or woman", second of all, I never said anywhere that anyone who genuinely enjoys life is brainwashed. The people who are brainwashed in my eyes are the ones who are pro-life, religious, racist, anti-suicide, anti lgbt, and pro slavery.
It is wrong according to you.
According to you, it is wrong according to me. Again, stop putting words into my mouth.
Your perspective isn't relevant for people who enjoy life, and they have every right to do so.
I couldn't care less whether they enjoy life or not, they are the ones who agree with restricting the right to die, so they are cruel and sadistic to me.
