No, society should be restructured to make their lives less difficult.

You don’t say that people who are disadvantaged should be killed off. You should work to make their lives less disadvantaged.

That's a liberal fantasy. Trans people are the perfect example: liberals pretend it's nothing but a social problem when the sad truth is these people can't be helped. There are definitely areas in which society could be a lot more compassionate, but it's naive to think that society is the cause and solution to every problem.

It’s definitely not a solution but is almost a cause.
