How far-Right are you? If you’re even vestigially uncomfortable with the ongoing, tech-powered liquefaction of everything, in the name of commerce — if you show the slightest sign of questioning its self-evident moral goodness — then you’re already “aligned with the far-Right”.

    LOL Democrats are right-wing. That's hilarious. Let me guess, anyone to the right of Mao Zedong is a fascist to you, right? LOLOLOLOL

    The Republicans aren't much better, for the last four decades they have been RINOs, Republicans In Name Only and do not represent the people.

    1. According to Declaration of Geneva which was adopted by the General Assembly of the World Medical Association in 1948, Doctors have agreed: "As member of the medical profession I will not use my medical knowledge to violate human rights and civil liberties, even under threat".
    2. The right to suicide has been established through a case law in the European Court of Human Rights: "The Court considers that an individual's right to decide by what means and at what point his or her life will end, provided he or she is capable of freely reaching a decision on this question and acting in consequence, is one of the aspects of the right to respect for private life within the meaning of Article 8 of the Convention". (Haas vs Switzerland, paragraph 51) HAAS v. SWITZERLAND [2011] ECHR 2422 (20 January 2011) 3.Therefore, if you are able to prove that the decision to commit suicide is based on a rational decision, you qualify for this provision, and any doctor or organisation that deprives you of liberty, violates human rights, and you are able to report them to the medical council or health ministry. -The rational suicide criteria, according to Siegel (1986): [(1) the individual possesses a realistic assessment of his (or her) situation, (2) the mental processes leading to his (or her) decision to commit suicide are unimpaired by psychological illness or severe emotional distress, and (3) the motivational basis of his (or her) decision would be understandable to the majority of uninvolved observers from his (or her) community or social group] (p. 407).
