South Park Season 3 Episode 8

[macrocosm]

Funny but true view on suicide in this episode. Found it supports pro-choice where it comes to suicide.

I don't know why people like to impose their opinions on others and why they force themselves to get involved in other people's choices and lives.

If you're not harming anyone or your environment, why does anyone care? I don't get people sometimes.

I thought it would be the one where Stan's grandpa keeps trying to off himself, (turns out that one is 1-6) but it's the meteor shower one. A classic, and an honest parody of the government's Koresh/Waco fuck up. Bunch of goddamn clowns.

 

[MrBrownUpsideD]

There are a lot of suicidal people with caring families and friends. If peaceful suicide was readily available and common knowledge, anybody could do it on a first real impulse. A person in grief is a less efficient worker. The society we live in is a capitalist one after all. And even though theism is fading away, it's various ethical guidelines are very much prominent.

In other words: if you're not suicidal, you have no benefit in supporting suicide. And nobody gets it until they go through it themselves.
