I’ve been observing this trend. It’s very hard to watch. Even meaning itself has been weaponized, externalized… often substituted with usefulness. I also observe that our medical system has trained us to do just about anything to escape suffering… and even discomfort. We have to learn to navigate discomfort again.
Barry, my Sister and I cared from our Mother full time before she passed at 100. At 97 she had mild stroke which resulted in an increased level of care. We gave our Mother our entire being as she did caring for us throughout our childhood. Even amidst her physical limitations, She smiled and laughed with us everyday. She gave us a purpose and we did our best to brighten her days and make her feel loved. Our Parents were devout in their Catholic Faith and transferred the importance of caring for Family and friends to us. Loving the Lord our Creator, loving our Neighbors as ourselves, and honoring our Parents was paramount. These principle are common amongst believers in most religions. Sadly, our Governments are promoting a Godless, sterile orthodoxy which promotes the discarding of human life without regard to it’s Divinity and Sacredness. Showing great love through the personal sacrifice of caregiving can make life worth living for both caregiver and the cared for. It is an ultimate Divine purpose. An ultimate expression of Meaning.
Yer welcome an' so true 'bout the "dok-turds" as I call 'em! Yup, the "institutionalization" of modern medi-SIN.
A GREAT exception is the late Dr. Robert S. Mendelsohn who scribed the likes of "But Doctor, About That Shot: The Risks of Immunizations and How to Avoid Them" and "How To Raise a Healthy Child In Spite of Your Doctor" (thankfully I discovered this an' took it ta heart before havin' kiddos myself! tho' I suffered some'a my own mistakes from trustin' dok-turds over the years an' lost many fambly members ta mediCULL mal-practice (mal bein' the operative syllable!)
As ya know, the gubbamint tries ta force folks inta the "dok-turds are expurts" paradigm--most folks have ta rely on "funded" health plans an' fightin' that system (I know from experience thar!) is not easy--an' as ya said, there's that peer pressure an' laziness--the "expectation" of a pill or a quik fix, it's all programmin' (in-dok-trina-shun!) -- how ta combat (dare I say) Rocker-feller Medi-Sin?
So it's that AND the devaluation of the elderly--whut used ta be our Wisemen & Wise Women are now treated like the CHAFF! 'Fore we left the Rotten Apple I'd see that oft-times nobuddy on the trains or buses would even give up their seat to the older folks (I did an' my kiddos learned ta do that too). The de-valuation of LIFE in general also contributes ta this horri-bull mess we're in...
Solutions ta tack'lin' this further "upstream" all welcome--meantimes I guess we kin keep spreadin' the info cassandra-like!
This normalizin' and MONETIZIN' (velly important ta take in this aspect!) of DEATH (euthanasia/assisted suey-cide) is becomin' "bizness as usual" and a common "proto-cull" an' it's skeery as heck.
I 'member when Dr. Death Jack Kevorkian wuz villy-fied, considered a regular freak-show outlier an' now... "it's a beautiful thing." (oy!) Ya mentioned Belgium--sadly, SO sadly, one'a my fav-o-rite film direct-eurs Jean Luc Godard had dock-turds end his own life via lethal injection. (IMO noboddy that takes the hippocratic should EVER be engaged in killin' folks--includin' prisoners--but then again, I heard that NO dokturds have ta take the hippocratic any more--hippo seems ta have gone the way of the bustle (or the hustle!)--it's purdy chillin' ta think 've that--no oath ta help folks no more...
Anywho, do give a listen ta Dr. Coleman's urgent warnin' (I shared the link in the above stack)*
The $$$ factor is a big piece 've it-- why fund adaptive equipment or motorized stairways or social suck-urity or medi-care-less or even the dang ORTHOTICS when ye kin just KILL 'em ALL an' put those stolen taxpayer dollerz ta more wars, more illegal traffickin' ('er pre-paid credit cards fer the traffick'erz), an' ta payin' the NSA ta spy on us... Seriously they are velly "vermischt" in their priorities!
So imo, nearly ALL euthanasia is murder! (Yer right that it's Hit-lair-ian!) Folks that think they want it mebbe brainwarshed (it's not that much different from all this trannie / trans malarkey)--they just got convinced that's the way ta go--this wasn't never a thing fer our ancestors--life an' death were with yer fambly, not medic-cull-ized. I daresay it's a "trend" an' contagious... OH an' Dr. Coleman makes a pernt that disability now is normalized--yer disabled if ya cain't open jars, if ya cain't remember The Gettysburg Address, if ya gotta bunion! So gently sweetly euthani'zin' the disabled is like killin' us all--nearly so!
Even fer pets this is the new trend (we ourselfs had the evil AniMAUL Medi-CULL Center in NYSeize try ta kill our beloved doggie--I had ta pull off the Fentanyl patch which they'd hidden under her fur--imagine!)--'nuther story fer another time but harrowin'!--an' those of us that love our furry pals have seen this "push"--too many give in against their better judgment--just like they rolled up sleeves ta the clot shots...
We all thought Soyent Green wuz FICTION! (God bless Eddie G!) They tried ta warn us... I think they did--mebbe it was predictive--but also a dire warnin'.... (If ya watch the film--the scene where they eat a real meal together, real food--an' it was IMPROVIZED--lordy--brilliant stuff--the joys of life...)
Anywho, glad yer gittin' the word out too Barry!--they DO wanna kill us all, they wanna normalize euthanasia, suicide, DEATH... an' it's a cult. And, as ya said, murder! (cold blooded stuff, eh?)
(*Small Caveat Re Dr. Coleman--jus' today larned that the "Old Man in the Chair" ain't no friend of "us Chews" re some wince-wurty postin's unrelated ta this topic that were pointed my way--ugh!--but nevertheless--I'm all fer TRIAGE now-a-daze--Gotta save ALL of us first, we'ze all human beans!--old, young, abled, disabled, etc--then worry 'bout ol' fools bad mouthin' without understandin'--later!
To avoid the worst that you and Coleman fear, we need to start further upstream. The problem began when we turned over responsibility for our health to doctors.
We all know people who relish going to the doctor and getting a pill. If they don't receive one, they become disappointed. During Covid, they demanded others "get with the program."

How true, Ann. And how chilling!

Daisy, Thanks for sharing your excellent post.
To avoid the worst that you and Coleman fear, we need to start further upstream. The problem began when we turned over responsibility for our health to doctors.
We all know people who relish going to the doctor and getting a pill. If they don't receive one, they become disappointed. During Covid, they demanded others "get with the program."
Yes, exactly. The difference is that government today is tipping the scales.
