To just be loving The Donald Win!

When this first came to light, it was possible to think that this could be meant as a joke, or more likely in Trump's case, some 'locker room' boasting. Obviously it wasn't even funny then.

Now that Trump is an adjudicated sex offender found guilty by a jury of his peers, that 'joke' sounds more like a boastful confession.

@CoatRack fuck me..... that your come back. 😂😂😂

Someone once grabbed me by the pussy when I was in a nightclub. I'm curious as to why I was supposed to find that funny. Or why someone saying they do that is funny?

You might think I'm dull but that's a million times better than finding comments about sexual assault funny. That makes you a dick.

Surely any politician with half a brain knows that if you want to look and indeed be statesmanlike you ignore personal insults?

Interesting how @CoatRack was insistent that this was a joke but is unable or unwilling to explain why it's funny 🤔

If that was true, it would be a good thing, saving many lives. Based on your source, it's probably not true and I could find no other source which reports this.

It's not eugenics if it's done because people are sick and want to end their suffering. It's only eugenics if it's done to improve the genetics of the population.

If you only knew how hard it was to get assisted death you would likely not be concerned about this at all. I have a relative who has been trying for five years. You have to jump through a long list of hoops, exhausting all other options before it will even be considered. It's actually too restrictive if anything.

Ok.

This is a Catholic source, whereas your previous one was fundamentalist Christian. They are not the same, especially in the states. The types of Christians your previous source is geared to don’t consider Catholics to be Christians and assume they are going to hell.

As for this source, you’re right that the Catholic Church is cool with organ donation. However, it’s irrelevant because they are not cool, and have never been cool with suicide and consider it a mortal sin. MAID is technically a type of suicide, so not rocket science that the Catholic Church wants their followers to not do it.

Organs worth ‘millions’

According to some estimates, a heart is “worth around $1 million in the U.S. Livers come in second, about $557,000, and kidneys cost about $262,000 each. Not to speak about human skin ($10/inch), stomach ($500), and eyeballs ($1,500 each).”

While selling one’s organ for money is illegal in most countries, Ireland warned that Canadians tend to be “naïve.”

“The price the market is willing to pay for human body parts is astounding,” Ireland said.

Catholics aren't interested in the King James bible.

The study was published in the American Journal of Transplantation in September 2022.

Data shows Canada as having 49 cases of ODE in 2021 alone, with 136 cases since euthanasia, or medical assistance in dying (MAiD), as it is called, became legal in Canada in 2016.
Between Canada, the Netherlands, Spain, and Belgium, there were 286 cases of ODE.
According to the Canadian Institute for Health Information, 6% of all organ donations for transplants in Canada come from a person who died from MAiD.

You just want to make this seem as if it is nothing, smear me so you can push your agenda... roll up roll up for the trio of Eugenics. Abortion, puberty blocking and assistance suicide, it's fine, it's all good 👍 trust the lovely lefty who is very angry that Trump got in and this has been stopped.

Apparently this is beautiful gifting now, where as earlier it was just people who had a week or so to live, it's Eugenics as far as I can see.

Your source is the Christian Broadcasting Network, a US based, right wing publication. Their target readership includes huge amounts of fundamentalist, independent Christians, most of whom are wary of organ donation because it was not specifically mentioned in the KJV bible and they are worried that not having all your innards will make them ineligible for eternal salvation. Publications like this prey on this fear.

Reading this article without a fearful lens, all it’s saying is that some people choosing MAID are also choosing to donate their organs, and that these donations have resulted in a small increase (6%) in viable organ donation. There’s nothing shocking there. A large % of people choosing MAID do so due to cancer, so these people would likely be uneligible. But those with terminal heart failure or neurological illness who want to donate corneas or non affected organs now have the opportunity to do so. If they had been left to suffer against their will to the bitter end, those donations would not have been viable.

Even this article doesn’t mention the money making scheme you claimed earlier. In Canada, organ donation is voluntary and can be revoked at any time. These donations are these people’s final, voluntary gifts, don’t turn it into something ugly.

I was enjoying reading this thread initially but now I'm just deeply disturbed by the deluded fanaticism. Excuse after excuse after excuse in order to justify some very questionable behaviour. I'm blown away that people seem utterly unable to analyse or acknowledge their own rank hypocrisy.

You made it sound like Paralympians were being killed by the Canadian govt. One paralympian veteran who who had a request into Veterans affairs received an inexcusible, tone deaf, and stupid offer of MAID services in response. That’s due to incompetence of her case worker, not malice. The paralympian is obviously alive and doesn’t claim to be coerced to her death.

You mean there are TWO Donalds ?!!

Not just unreasonable. Terrible.

How nice of you to rejoice in misery and terror. Or, you know, not at all nice.

Almost seven years after Canada passed an assisted suicide law, it has become the leader of the world in transplanted organs harvested from its citizens it has assisted in killing

Some call it Eugenics.

Former paralympian tells MPs veterans department offered her assisted death.

Retired corporal Christine Gauthier

First of all, the part about Paralympic medallists reads like some AI hallucination.

Maybe so, but it's true.

A paraplegic former member of the Canadian military shocked MPs on Thursday by testifying that the Department of Veterans Affairs offered her, in writing, the opportunity for a medically assisted death — and even offered to provide the equipment.
Retired corporal Christine Gauthier, who competed for Canada at the 2016 Rio de Janeiro Paralympics and the Invictus Games that same year, spoke before the House of Commons veterans committee and agreed to provide a copy of the letter.
"With respect to me, I have a letter in my file, because I had to face that as well," said Gauthier, referring to the debate about veterans being offered the option of medical assistance in dying (MAID).
"I have a letter saying that if you're so desperate, madam, we can offer you MAID, medical assistance in dying," said Gauthier who first injured her back in a training accident in 1989.
Testifying in French, she said she has been fighting for a home wheelchair ramp for five years and expressed her concerns about the assisted dying offer in a recent letter to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Canadian here.

Regarding your last paragraph, no. Just no. First of all, the part about Paralympic medallists reads like some AI hallucination. Canada has a small enough population that trust me, if our paralylympians were being offed by the government, word would have gotten around.

And organ harvesting from terminally ill people? For money? Who would pay for an organ from someone full of cancer?

Everything you’ve written here shows that you are part of the problem. Using “Locker room talk” to defend sexist behaviour is pretty dated and disgusting. If those are the locker rooms you hang out in, sounds like your gym caters to jerks.

Also, you seem to have a fundamental misunderstanding of the basics of consent. I’m not sure if it’s ignorance or you don’t really care, but maybe sit this one out.

FWIW - there are loads of people who love Putin, and defend him against accusations of murder and theft. Ditto every other shit, populist fascistic leader of the past 80 years who's abused women, stolen and lied.

Trump is just part of that fine tradition, and @CoatRack is part of the fine tradition of people who will defend the obviously indefensible because they support a particular political ideology.

Well I disagree with you that it's blatantly a joke as numerous women have said that trump has grabbed them by the fussy, without their consent. They said he just stuck his hand up their skirts. And they didn't want it to happen

Its a big coincidence.

But I won't go back and forth on it with you anymore. We ve both said our opinions. Let's leave it.

"Grab em by the pussy" is so ridiculous on its face that it is blatantly a joke.

Can you explain why this is funny?

Your quote is now correct, but it still doesn't matter; you're still making my point for me.

"Grab em by the pussy" is so ridiculous on its face that it is blatantly a joke. 🤦🏼‍♀️
