The surveillance state already exists, including at healthcare appointments.
Members of law enforcement agencies may have the ability to track the medical appointments of any patient of Kaiser Permanente (which owns Geisinger in Pennsylvania), without a warrant and without any probable cause, for any reason that may interest them.
The problems with MAID in context.
Human euthanasia cannot be considered as a standalone question, because like everything else, it has to exist in the worst societal contexts – some that are a reality right now.
Harming disabled people was always part of the project.
I’m really concerned because a lot of people I talk to, or see posting in forums or on social media, seem to not realize that disabled people are being targeted by anti-DEI and anti-woke policy. I keep seeing people saying things like that they’re stopping funding for disability services at schools and such because “transition” […]
People are not even talking about the same things and this is dangerous.

Massachusetts state Senator Will Brownsberger, Democrat from Boston, introduced a bill that would prohibit municipalities and boards of health from enacting mask bans that include banning “protective or medical use” of wearing masks in public.
Far from being satisfied, winning just emboldens the violent Trumpies.
The idea that you can satiate people determined to create havoc and harm is ridiculous on its face. In the wake of the election in 2016 I witnessed harassment myself almost immediately.

Luzerne County manager pressured to reverse decision that would’ve made it harder to safely vote by mail in some Pennsylvania towns.
Those of us who live in northeastern Pennsylvania could easily guess this is probably about Hazleton.
