No, I don't like it at all.
Well, your post didn’t come off that way.
It's grimly sad that people are brainwashed into not doing something to save themselves.
If someone because of their health is in a do or die situation, then they should opt for the thing that might save them, I agree. But again, it is the individuals choice, not ours.
I don’t know what Meatloaf’s situation was, or why he made the decisions that he made, do you? I mean, you’re not saying he was ‘brainwashed’ though? or, are you?
And moreover, trying to convince other people to act against their own interests. What do you call it?
I agree, no one should be coerced into putting something into their
body that they don’t want in them, it is their right to make that choice and they shouldn’t be punished for it. The same way a woman can have an abortion if she feels it’s the right choice for her, it’s her body, her life.
