I am of the complete opposite opinion. Not letting people decide if they want to live or not is the ultimate restriction of personal freedom. I think there should be some kind of process for euthanasia for practical reasons cause most people will eventually feel they want to keep on living, but for those who don’t there should be a right to die.

that's such a pedantic point
There was this one study that found that people have significantly fewer close friends than 30 years ago, and for men, the change was larger. I would call that a loneliness epidemic.
What the hell
A proper all-encompassing conscription would be kinda insane. Drafting a percentage of people like they do in sweden might be reasonable. AFAIK they don't actually have to force anybody to go to the army in sweden though, they have enough volunteers, but the system is set up so that in theory they can.
I don't really care, both are pretty fucking bad
Yes but this clearly wasn't about that. If it had been he'd just screenshotted that part and focused on that. But he's a weirdo so he screenshotted 5 years of content, anything that could remotely offend anybody, to make the maximum amount people mad.
How do you know that?
kyse ei ole uskon asiasta, vaan siitä mitä oikeasti tapahtui. Kiina on estänyt asian selvittämisen, joten on mahdollista että tapahtumien kulku ei ainakaan vähään aikaan selviä millään varmuudella.
Eli tavallaan se juuri on uskon asia..
I think the masses, by and large, are still taking vaccines. The ones who don't are stuck in epistemic systems that amplify noise (social media, conspiracy theory groups, right wing cults etc.).
I seem to be doing a poor job at making my point here. Hope you appreciated the conversation regardless.
what are you really achieving?
Having knowledgeable researchers that can help produce vaccines, and having at least a part of the population be knowledgeable enough to make sane decisions about their healthcare..
It’s a prerequisite to solving ”the antivaxxer issue”, though not sufficient.
Maximizing personal freedom shouldn't be the only goal, yes. But not letting people choose whether they live or die is minimal personal freedom to me. Or it should be, like the bare minimum.
