Most of the time when people say they have an unpopular opinion, it turns out it’s actually pretty popular.

Do you have some that’s really unpopular and most likely will get you downvoted?

    It’s a very brave take, but I don’t think I can agree with you 100 percent. Some people have depression (we think of it as a disease), and younger people tend to be… immature that they make decisions impulsively and regretted their decisions later. Euthanasia is a one way road, there is of course no going back after you’re dead.

      I get what you mean, but that’s just us placing a value on the importance of someone staying alive. An emotional habit that we as social creatures that work together and can love one another of course have.

      Purely rationally speaking, there is no need for one to be alive and that person cannot regret such action, as he/she’s dead. The regret is an emotion we project on someone who does not exist anymore, while thinking death is something negative. But in my opinion it’s neutral.
