You both achieved nothing
Well that's cheerfully optimistic.

Existential nihilism; it is the only way.Well that's cheerfully optimistic.
I posted earlier calling this fake news and my post was deleted as "distasteful".
But it really is fake news. Here's my source: https://twitter.com/NaomiOhReally/status/1136189899672084480
If you're really saying the truth is distasteful just delete this post too and I'll drop it.
If you genuinely believe life to be a curse I suggest you seek help. You could well be suffering from some form of depression or mental health. Seeing life as a curse is not a good thing.
Not sure where you get that from.Personal survival is the only point in life
Reproduce (unless you like corner sofas)Not sure where you get that from.
Even in the animal kingdom there are animals that sacrifice themselves to ensure their young survive.
Personally I don't really see any point in my life but that's another story
They have a point thoughWell that's cheerfully optimistic.
for reasons that have been more than adequately stated, so rolling your eyes just makes you look...well, you know.I'm glad it's fake, euthanizing a healthy 17 year old sounds ridiculous to me, though looks like a surprising amount of people on this thread, believing this story, are of the 'good for her' mindset for some reason
I'm glad it's fake
You're glad she was denied a humane way of assisted dying and instead had to resort to starving herself to death ?
I like how ****** the moral compasses are for certain people, No you cannot kill yourself painlessly, you have to suffer a prolonged torturous death by starvation
You'd rather people throw themselves under a bus, or off a cliff, once they've made the decision to end their lives?Wow, partial quote and angry misrepresentation much? Shame for the girl (is she even dead? I assumed that part of the story may also be fiction, but I'm obviously nowhere near as invested in this fake news story as some here).
However, I will reserve the right to be glad we don't have Soylent Green style assisted suicide clinics just yet, as daringly parodied in the Deus Ex 1 bulletin I posted above. Society is threatening to become dystopian enough as it is already.

Puberty starts in girls between 10 and 14 so I don't know where you get 16 from. That would be considered quite a late onset of puberty in girls. At 17 she was still a minor under Dutch law but that is not relevant as anyone from the age of 12 can be considered.
You have zero knowledge of what support she did or didn't get. Stop thinking you know better than her or her family and medical team.
The Nazi comment is frankly ridiculous and very offensive.
Where is your empathy for a person who is suffering every day? You have no idea of the psychological and physical pain she suffered from every day and while you try to claim you are the one that has the empathy your statement shows you don't, you just care on what your opinions are, not how she felt and wanted to do with her life.
Wow that is an insight into your mind. That living for revenge of a murdered parent would be better than dying to end a thoroughly miserable life. I'd rather take death thanks than suffering the pain of a murdered parent and then a life filled with a feelings of revenge. Can't think many worse reasons for living than revenge.
Comments like make me sick. You again like to claim you are a person with great empathy but clearly have zero understanding of what people who have been raped suffer. I know several women who have been raped, I had a girlfriend who was repeatedly raped as a child and at 30 years old she still suffered horrific PTSD that could be triggered by the smallest thing and she would revert to a child in terrible suffering. To my shame I couldn't cope with it and the relationship ended. She had been in therapy from 18 years of age, so 12 years and still she suffered, she is probably still suffering to this day if she hasn't ended her life. We completely lost touch after we broke up and she moved away. You should look up the suicide rates for abused children and the crime rates. To try and claim that people get over it and move on is a joke. Even those who might appear ok on the outside I would bet are still suffering the effects, you are just unaware of them. Stop trying to force your opinions on others. You don't know better than her family and her medical team. I applaud the Netherlands for their open minded view on these matters.
She said she wanted her book to help vulnerable youngsters who struggle with life, saying that the Netherlands does not have specialised institutions or clinics where teenagers can go for psychological or physical aid.
We, her parents, want her to choose the path of life. Noa really doesn't want to die at all. She only longs for peace,' Lisette said
