Your contempt is absolutely justified. I went through something similar myself. These people, who have absolutely no voice, are the victims of the virtue signaling, moral crusading army of idiots who are very happy to tell people like us that it’s wrong to want to die or to help someone to die. They sell today for tomorrow. They trade in the suffering of thousands so that they don’t have to confront reality or say something unbecoming. It’s truly infuriating because this results in real and profound suffering. When someone is in need of death, and is writing letters to god for a merciful death, what societal/cultural mechanisms are there to fall on? None! It’s a fucking disgrace and a stain on the human race that such conditions are allowed to go on. Truly on a stain on us.

It just boggles my mind that the moral crusaders scream endlessly about ending the suffering of these people or those people… and yet they do nothing to end the suffering of millions who are right in their back yard and who’s suffering can be ended relatively quickly and easily through very simple legislation, awareness and education. It’s the lowest hanging fruit and yet it goes unpicked.

And there is a large skilled nursing industry that is very happy to profit from it all…
