A pillar of the liberal ideology is the primacy of the individual. I've heard it said that suicide is the most selfish thing you can do. Does that make killing yourself a liberal act?

suicide is not necessarily liberalism but communism does regard it as a sin due to its origins in catholic theology

a liberal knows that its immoral to kill themselves unless theyve paid off all of their student loans and credit cards

Does that make killing yourself a liberal act? it is. every classical political theorist said you cant commit suicide. plato, hobbes & rousseau, etc. even mao https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/mao/selected-works/volume-6/mswv6_05.htm posted:My attitude toward suicide is to reject it. . . . First of all, man's goal is to seek life, and he should not go against the grain of his natural tendency and seek death. . . . Secondly, although suicide results from the fact that society deprives people of all hope. . . . We should struggle against society in order to regain the hope that we have lost. . . . We should die fighting. . . . Thirdly, if people show respect for those who have courageously put an end to their own lives, that does not at all mean that they respect suicide as such, but rather that they respect the courageous spirit of resistance to brute force, which inspires the person who commits suicide . . . .

i believe there is euthanasia, however, in thomas more's Utopia, but i can't remember and i only have the book in paper form (impossible to search this type of book) e: and also in platos republic, but i think that was for more mundane reasons Smythe has issued a correction as of 23:35 on Feb 24, 2024 |

of course. once you max your credit score under liberalism you kill yourself to start over with new cosmetics. its just like prestige in call of duty.

Smythe's answer is nerdlinger bullshit. Is it neoliberalism to kill yourself? That's what the people want to know
