I am not entirely sure he was the interviewer.
I thought there was a clergy person.
Someone who was into living wills.
We were told names of a prospective list so we could google them, you see.
I suppose the information available at the time is different from how they choose to market themselves these days.
I did not know that the level of euthanasia dialogue (still, many many many years after) at Otago runs like this: Euthanasia is what farmers do to their herds. GPs have herds, too, rather like being farmers for the good of their selves... or similar... GPs must never commit euthanasia on their herds peoples though becuase that would be morally wrong.
There is no conception of informed consent.
There is no conception of autonomy.
There is no understanding of treating adults even with the most basic of courtesy's that are are supposed to demonstrate towards children: One of assent. There is no concern or consideration for assent, even. I mean, if someone is screaming `nonononono' then I guess you can't immunise them, but you are supposed to bully them into believing they are mentally handicapped or similar if they aren't willing to let you immunise them with something that you don't even know what it is...
It is because they were picked too young. Selected from Secondary School by the headmaster. Because they were deemed to be natural leaders of men. Becuase they were on the rugby team with relatively good grades and were tall and robust seeming from working class backgrounds.
That was the start of it.
Then it was their children. Their own (often) spoiled children. Whether or not their children wanted it. They don't get to assent either, often enough, I do see that.
Anyway... Whatever...
These people stole my life.
They stole my stuff. THey stole my ideas. THey stole my work. They bullied me and guilted me and shamed me...
And I do not want to join them. I do not want to be like them. I do not want it to be about luck. Luck. Luck. So you strike it lucky then consider you have done your time after what? After how long? Then you get to take your... $5,000 bicycle? $10,000 bicycle? And trip round the country to your holiday home?
You can't work while doing that?
No phone consultations.
No internet no worky for you??
Course not.
We don't have clean drinking water!
Course internet no worky for you.
We are actively selecting for psychopaths.
