That is how hospice works. they won’t euthanasia they will just let you die and do theoretical pain management.

Depends on the doctor. If you get a good one, they will give you a lot of painkillers that will shorten your life significantly.

My mom died of dehydration in hospice because it was “unethical” to just give her a shot of barbituates when half her brain was no longer functioning after a stroke.

Unfortunately, end of life care is very poorly regulated (to protect people).

True.

But Hospice is generally required to get to assisted suicide tho.

Or at least, it was when my dad finally got to die.

The normal doctor wouldn’t do it, the hospital didnt allow it except for in hospice.

And then we had to fight for a week to get the hospice doctor to let him die.

Check your state law. In some states it is very illegal to ignore a properly filled out DNR, religion or no religion.

It is 100% legal to refuse medical care because of being Christian. This has been litigated to death.

Its illegal to punish somebody for refusing to provide medical care if they claim that doing so would be against their (christian) religion. This has also been litigated to death.

Also, hospice is not state assisted suicide.

No, but Hospice does include not preventing death if the patient doesnt want to go on a bunch of stuff

Hospice is comfort care, and it’s not about causing someone to die, it’s about helping someone who is terminal be more comfortable during the time they have left.

And usually letting them die when they want to.

Its how my dad finally died, He got hospice and the doctor gave him a massive overdose of Morphine (after multiple days of asking the doctor to let him die).

Uhh, he was senile. Everything in his debate and press conferences indicated as such.

Not if you watched with any kind of honesty.

He isnt a great debator, but he wasn’t senile

He really didnt.

Nobody who saw that debate that wasn’t already guzzling down propaganda thought trump did well

So you grandma is catholic.

No, her doctor is, my grandma is Atheist

Let’s be clear here.

Its pretty fucking clear

And yes, killing someone is very problematic. I admit I don’t have the answer.

I do, let people die when they want to.

Let’s not act like this is that simple.

It really is

My grandmas doctor just straight up said that killing yourself is a sin and its against his religion to help her commit a sin when she asked to go on hospice.

Not just allowed, actively pushed to do so.

The doctor she goes to did it, just decided that it was against his religion for her to decide to go on hospice care.

Even if he would allow it, in order for her to get on hospice, her doctor would have to go in front of an ethics committee and argue for her to be allowed to go on hospice. If anyone on the ethics committee objects, she isn’t allowed.

California has a right-to-die law (one of very few states that does). You are allowed to die if your doctor can prove that your disease will kill you in 6 months, that you are coherent (at the time of death, you cant sign anything beforehand for it), if you are capable of taking the suicide pills without assistance.

The doctor has to document that you made two separate distinct verbal requests, 48 hours apart. Has to document that your disease will kill you in 6 months, has to document that you are able to take the pills on your own with no assistance (too weak to die? too bad). The case is automatically reviewed (and they will try to take away the doctors license every time).

And anyone involved is allowed to stop you if they object on any grounds.

Killing yourself is a sin in most versions of Christianity, so its effectively illegal in most of the country, and any doctor that is willing to let you has to really really work to not get their license taken and them thrown in jail.

Unfortunately, a lot of people arent.

Due largely to religious bullshit (at least in america), its very very difficult to get death with dignity. My grandma has parkinsons, she wants to go on hospice before it takes her brain, but her doctor is Catholic and decided its against his religion to let her die as she wants to.

Shes trying to find a doctor who will let her, but its very very difficult. Its still considered murder in most of the country, and even most Hospice doctors wont do anything besides not resuscitate. We have to be careful to not call an ambulance for her, because if she goes to a hospital, the doctor is allowed to just ignore her DNR if thats against their religion.

Could you tell me what I did wrong?

1. The whole “Biden was senile” or “Biden was a puppet” thing was pure Nazi propaganda, Biden was old, and physically frail, but the idea that he was mentally lost during his presidency was just pushed by fox news and other Nazi “news” sources, there is no credible evidence to suggest otherwise.

He stepped down because he was not a particularly popular president, and because people are dumb enough to believe the Nazis when they say something.

2. Attempting to pretend like Biden and Trump are even remotely similar is just Nazi propaganda, but this time with an “enlightened centrist” slant.

Our last two presidents have been barely functional, dementia-riddled puppets AT BEST.

Trying to sneak in the Nazi propaganda right there at the end huh?

Perhaps,

You could probably make a backpack nuke, although I don’t know that Iran specifically could.

and I guess if you have a backpack nuke, you can just make it be a really bulky vest

Honestly, the problem with a dirty bomb isn’t the cancer rates or w.e, its the sheer amount of propaganda that has gone into scaring people over nuclear energy. Yes, the propaganda is mostly to stop nuclear reactors to force reliance on oil, but its still there.

I used to use a nuclear soil density gauge. The gauge was not at all scary, I could use it as a seat for a whole year, and it would have a minimal effect on my lifetime cancer rates.

But no matter how many times I explained it, as soon as I said “Nuclear Gauge” people got scared.

“Nuclear” has become a scare word, so a nuclear dirty bomb is terrifying to people.

Sure, technically if it has two armholes and covers most of the upper body it can count as a vest.

Could they develop one somebody could reasonably carry around? No
