  • Hey Guest,

    Today, OFCOM launched an official investigation into Sanctioned Suicide under the UK’s Online Safety Act. This has already made headlines across the UK.

    This is a clear and unprecedented overreach by a foreign regulator against a U.S.-based platform. We reject this interference and will be defending the site’s existence and mission.

    In addition to our public response, we are currently seeking legal representation to ensure the best possible defense in this matter. If you are a lawyer or know of one who may be able to assist, please contact us at [email protected].

To me, nobody should ever have to justify their reasons for suicide, suicide does not even need a reason. There is no such thing as a 'trivial' or 'invalid' reason for suicide and to me it would be wrong to call someones reason for wanting to die that, it would be invalidating. After all, we all have different limits as to what we can cope with in life anyway. I find pro lifers to be irritating with their toxic positivity. No one can ever really understand what someone else is going through as they are not living their life. None of us asked to exist in the first place so we have no obligations to stay alive anyway. If someone simply does not want to exist then that is their choice.

It does frustrate me how in the countries where euthanasia is legalised, it is usually just for people with a certain amount of suffering, they have to meet some sort of criteria (I think), but to me it should be legalised everywhere for everyone. After all, all life is meaningless and we will all die eventually someday. No one should be forced to and expected to live against their wishes. Humans exist only for the sake of existing and all that life is, is just waiting around to die anyway. I do not understand the whole 'suicide needs a valid reason' thing. We exist for no reason, so why does dying need a reason. People die everyday without a reason. To me it is cruel how others want to deny us the option of a peaceful exit. Suicide could never be wrong to me and our right to die should always be respected. I look forward to the day in which all this will finally end.
There is tons of literature regarding the philosophy of suicide by the greatest thinkers of mankind. If you want to delve deep into the teleology of suicide you should read some Schopenhauer or Camus but also some Kant and Hobbes, Hume the stoics, Locke etc

Things are not black and white. They never are.

I recall each of us have our own reason, though not necessarily everyone has to make their reason visible, unless we want some help then I think it's fair trade that they want to know our reason in order for them giving us a hand.

I fully agree that pro-lifers shouldn't push their life and Sudden Adult Death agenda on everyone else.
We on the other spectrum just want to have our human's right back, to choose death each on our own term.
