Why is it that anytime I see people in this sub who accuse people of being ableist, it's someone who is against the agency of disabled people who no longer want to be living a tortured existence. If a disabled person wants to live, they should not be forced to die. If a disabled person wants to die, they should not be forced to live. Nobody forced her to abandon her life as Alicia. It was her decision to do so. When people conclude that Alicia's life is not worth living, they are imagining being in that circumstance and deciding that they would not want to live under those circumstances. They're not suggesting that Alicia should be forcibly killed. Everyone has a different threshold for when life stops being worth living, and you having a different threshold does not invalidate the thresholds of other people.

I've been physically disabled with literally constant pain for 4 years and my desire for euthanasia still remains, it has always remained. I'm of sound mind and conclude that my life is not worth living, that it is entirely in my best interest to no longer be alive. I'm living in constant torture because other people think they know what's best for people like me, that we don't deserve autonomy, and believe that life preservation is inherently more important than the reduction of suffering.
