r/tuesday This lady's not for turning Nov 25 '24

Semi-Weekly Discussion Thread - November 25, 2024

INTRODUCTION

/r/tuesday is a political discussion sub for the right side of the political spectrum - from the center to the traditional/standard right (but not alt-right!) However, we're going for a big tent approach and welcome anyone with nuanced and non-standard views. We encourage dissents and discourse as long as it is accompanied with facts and evidence and is done in good faith and in a polite and respectful manner.

PURPOSE OF THE DISCUSSION THREAD

Like in r/neoliberal and r/neoconnwo, you can talk about anything you want in the Discussion Thread. So, socialize with other people, talk about politics and conservatism, tell us about your day, shitpost or literally anything under the sun. In the DT, rules such as "stay on topic" and "no Shitposting/Memes/Politician-focused comments" don't apply.

It is my hope that we can foster a sense of community through the Discussion Thread.

IMAGE FLAIRS

r/Tuesday will reward image flairs to people who write an effort post or an OC text post on certain subjects. It could be about philosophy, politics, economics, etc... Available image flairs can be seen here. If you have any special requests for specific flairs, please message the mods!

The list of previous effort posts can be found here

UK assisted dying bill passes with 55 vote majority. One of the rare open votes.

I give it ten years before it turns into a similar debacle to Canada where people are pressured into it to save the NHS money.

It'll take much less time than that I think. As in, it'll happen immediately.

Perhaps, we’ll have to see what the final bill looks like and I imagine that the eligibility criteria will be rather stringent. Canada certainly has made a mess of it, but it exists elsewhere with various results.
