@AliArthPainter@JustTonyZer0 By definition it’s impossible for a disability to be painless or without suffering. A disability, disables you from something. Clue in the name. When you’re being disabled from something there is going to be pain b
@Dropchicken7@AliArthPainter@JustTonyZer0 No you’re right but there will always be some kind of pain and suffering, whether it’s what I think of it as or not. Because that’s the whole point of disability.
@ElectNikkiHaley I’d still say the disability is the worse thing. An external factor is something tangible, something you might one day be able to do something about. Something inside your head or part of your body isn’t and that makes it that much worse.
@mitchelld199@CariadGomez Blackmail might be the only crime where victim blaming is appropriate. You can only ever be blackmailed if you’ve done something wrong in the first place. If you’d done right there’d be nothing to blackmail you with.
@Dropchicken7@AliArthPainter@JustTonyZer0 No I didn’t. The pain and suffering that you get from being disabled is totally different to what humans generally will encounter.
@AliArthPainter@JustTonyZer0 Even the most supported disabled child in the world is going to experience pain and suffering. Because that’s what disability means. So no support isn’t the main point there.
@SomeRandoFellow@NerdiestNic I didn’t say as long as it’s not me though? What do you mean? All I said was adults get to decide for themselves but parents decide for their children.
@SomeRandoFellow@NerdiestNic Why not? Being an adult is the difference between getting input or not. That’s the whole point. Consent and all that is something you can give as an adult but not before.
@SomeRandoFellow@NerdiestNic To add plenty of people do decide for themselves to be put down after being seriously hospitalised. That’s what Dignitas is for.
@Gawain90@GrantMa25066011 Why can you only know about suffering if you’ve not lived in a highly advanced western nation? There’s plenty of different types of suffering. Lots of those happen in highly advanced western nations.
@ElectNikkiHaley Yes that’s true. But ecountering some amount of adversity is not the same as having a lifelong disability. The degree of suffering and length of time is so incredibly different.
