“There are many ways to kill. You can stab someone in the guts, take their bread away, not heal someone from disease, put someone in a bad living space, work someone to death, drive them to suicide, lead someone to war etc. Only few of these are prohibited in our state.”

-Bertolt Brecht

There are many ways to live a miserable life.

Wasting time doomscrolling, participating in elections run by parties that only seek legitimacy, working for a multinational corporation, mindlessly consuming mainstream subscription-based entertainment, losing all connection to physical activity and nature, eating junk...

All these things are considered perfectly acceptable in my society. Perhaps dying isn’t such a bad thing after all...
