NB: Avoid #MaidIsMurder tag until you feel more restored - stories are heartbreaking (seriously so: one gave me suicidal ideation for months as it was about someone with my condition who was over a decade younger, &, it turns out, didn't want to die but had no support. & it gets WAY more dystopian.)
SO MANY. 1) The 'good death' they're selling is a myth. The drugs are poorly researched. It can take up to 108 hrs to die. MANY horror stories. Is being sold on a lie pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC... 2) See #MaidIsMurder for Canada reality 3) Once introduced it's escalated in other countries too
Any you can share? I've been posting using #MaidIsMurder, (I have to check provenance as some publications that have been most vocal aren't ones I'd choose to share & one slipped through that someone kindly flagged was from a less-than-ideal publication). Lots of academic research on the issues too.
If it goes as it has in Canada then yes, sadly www.cambridge.org/core/service... (see #MaidIsMurder for more stories of #disabled Canadians being culled as they were poor, needed support & didn't get it. Be warned, you'll need a strong stomach. It's why so many of us are terrified of it coming here)
As to why: because we're always the canaries in the coal mine. Last week, they were trying to kill us (not hyperbole: see #MaidIsMurder for what's happening in Canada. Also www.cambridge.org/core/service...) Now, they're going for slower death (or fast if suicidal) by threatening security/stability.
The most shockingly dystopian story I've read is about a young woman with #EDS (same as me) who appeared in an advert for a clothes company TO SELL CLOTHES focussed on why she 'chose' MAID. Then it turned out she didn't. & she's dead. Aged 37. bsky.app/profile/barr... #RIPJennyferHatch #MAIDisMurder
1 Jennyfer Hatch had EDS like me, & didn't want to die bsky.app/profile/barr...
2 There are 100s of stories about disabled people being refused support/offered death: see #MAIDisMurder
3 Benefits system is broken/community rare/many isolated/ depressed
4 Trying to cull #disabled people has precedent

It's a GREAT, passionate, important video that will help people. If you're feeling strong, check #MaidIsMurder. I've posted lots about the murders that have been committed in Canada (veteran wanted ramp: offered #MAID & Jennyfer Hatch's heartbreakingly dystopian story assistedlab.ch/visual/all-i...)
I'm all too well aware - hence showing people why #MAiDisMurder. I really hope we can stop it and I don't have to amplify UK murders of disabled people too. Thanks for the video - will watch imminently
Useful to know - thanks. I've used a broad base of sources to show the (sadly) huge amount of cases of unwanted death across other posts on #MAIDIsMurder. Won't use that source again. I appreciate you flagging it.
Asked for a #wheelchair ramp. Got offered #death by government. #MaidIsMurder
Useful tip: TY for sharing. Anything that might help us avoid sick people dying is very much appreciated. See also #MaidIsMurder - but only if you have a strong stomach. It's truly heart-breaking, #dystopian and needs stopping globally. #Disabled (& all) people deserve care, not #GovernmentalMurder.
It was the story that broke me and made me determined to fight as hard as I can to stop it happening to anyone else. It's literally governments murdering people for being disabled (and poor) - hence #MAIDisMurder tag. It feels unreal. I REALLY wish it was.
Sorry if it's traumatic. When I first saw it, I went into a depression for months: she was over 10 years younger than me & didn't want to die. Canada was supposed to be one of the good places. Search #MAIDisMurder for LOTS more (eg veteran wanted a wheelchair ramp: was offered MAID) Is tough reading
Heard the one about the 37 year old woman with #EDS who didn't want to die & was killed by the government, but only after making an 'inspirational' advert for a fashion brand, selling clothes off the back of her death? It's no joke. It's #dystopia. It's happening now. #MAIDIsMurder #RIPJennyferHatch
