>Disabled activist group Not Dead Yet, who campaign against assisted suicide, have described the film as “grossly misrepresenting the lives of the vast majority of disabled people”.
>“The message of the film is that disability is tragedy and disabled people are better off dead,” she told BuzzFeed News. “It comes from a dominant narrative carried by society and the mainstream media that says it is a terrible thing to be disabled.”
>Discussing the film’s plot, Clifford said she found it “deeply ironic” that the disabled character was urging the able-bodied character to “live boldly”.

Will her career ever recover?

Her "career" will be over after GOT ends. Then she has one more paycheck left if she steels her wig and goes on blacked.com. Though by then she'll probably be so fat she won't even fit through their door for the audition.
>>
If I had my legs blasted off I'd be telling people to 'live boldly' too; how is it deeply ironic to tell others to cherish their lives while they still have them? And if my quality of life is poor enough to where I want to have someone kill me, then why can't that wish be fulfilled? It's like they want the disabled to suffer one last indignity by not even being able to control their own lives.

She is set for life even if she didn't get any work after GoT. I get that you don't like her but I don't understand how you all assume that she'll be in financial trouble if her career dries up.

thats a little extreme.this dude is a great singet and songwriter. one time one of our songs was THIS CLOSE to being in a blue moon commercial. also, theres no fucking way his wife is not cheating, amd unlike him she actually has working genitals

Cripples climb mountains but you can't even kill yourself without help

Even your suicide is cucked away from you

if she invested smartly maybe. I suspect she threw the money out the window instantly because she believed she had a huge hollywood career ahead of herself.

That shit is a few steps above a foot massage; I understand that he's in a shitty position, but that doesn't mean he should be an asshole either. Why not just divorce her and do that shit guilt-free?

If his dick doesn't work he should just do the honorable thing and an hero.

i cant say for sure, but it seems like has has good conversations with her. she was with him before the accident, wheb he was apparently an athlete and good looking dude, and she's been allowed to gain weight and smoke all the weed she wants and go to schoil to be a vet and shit

are you saying his healthy functioning wife isn't getting plowed 6 times a week by her fitness instructors ?

Never heard of this film until now.
This bothers me greatly. The assisted suicide organization, dignitas, that's in the story is a real-life clinic that does assisted suicides.
I'm a member of dignitas myself and I don't wish there to be a public outcry over what they do there.

Sounds pathetic desu senpai, I don't understand his motivation to provide oral to random sluts with a dead dick. Sounds cucked by life, I'd much rather kill myself than live like that.

Wahh a movie had an opinion we don't agree with

Mentally challenged people and vegetables are just sad and it's honestly just tragic, watching your grandmother with Alzheimer's not recognize your mother as her own kid, or watching some mentally challenged 30 year old hug 14 year old girls and compliment their cleavages while drooling is just deeply troubling.

Shotguns don't even work all the time. I'm sure you've seen the old liveleak video of the guy in a hospital after trying to kill himself with a shotgun. The one where he's conscious in the hospital bed while missing his entire jaw, face and about half of his fore-brain.
Not to mention that it's not possible for everybody to get ahold of them.

Assisted suicide organizations have a 100% success rate and they use a strong barbiturate to do it. This means you feel a bit of euphoria before you lose consciousness and then die

You're a fucking moron. You make it sound like people are forced into these suicides.
To be eligible for an assisted suicide at dignitas they make you see psychiatrists to figure out alternatives to death. If you still want to die, then they will help you.

The number of people killed by these organizations is incredibly small, less than .01% of people who retire every year.
Dignitas was started in 1998 and not even 2,000 people have been killed there.

You're the one being jewish by forcing people to become old and sick and paying large amounts of money into hospitals, pharmaceuticals and assisted living. If a person feels that there's no positives in their life anymore and have the psychological proficiency to think out the consequences then they should be able to end their life if they choose.

i dont even want a thin girl to sit on my face I want a huge 200 pound amazon or nobody

What a dumb group. If the concept of a persons quality of life being below death is too hard to understand, maybe avoid the subject.
>>
>>70041570
Not to mention that the vast majority of assisted suicide organizations are non-profit.
>>70041421
Maybe you should learn about a topic before you start shouting out asinine opinions.
>>
>>70041628
>non profits mean something is benevolent
the catholic fucking church is a non profit
>>
>>70041666
Out of everything I said you chose to focus on that, huh?
Well, since you're unable to determine the difference between a church and an assisted-suicide clinic, you should actually look into their yearly profits. They publish them. The low amount of member fees that people pay into dignitas go into a doctor's salary (who is required by law to administer the drug), buying the chemicals and maintaining the building with any extras above that going into programs like crises help-lines of care programs to take off the mentally ill.

Like I said in the post you quoted, you should look into subjects before you decide to shout out your retarded opinion.

Just because churches abuse their non-profit status does not mean they all do.
>>
>>70041232
Well, like most social issues these days, there is the core truth of it, and then the bullshit special interest groups wrap the truth in, that make the issue revolting.

But, yes, there is an attitude toward those with disabilities where unfair treatment is allowed.
