Coconut products made in Thailand are also typically pretty bad. Unfortunately at the end of the day it’s basically impossible to not consume anything that exploits people or non-human animals at some point down the chain but I do try and avoid the most egregious ones I know about at least.
I think the main argument against that is that if someone is going to follow through with it either way I’d much rather them do so in a painless way with a medical professional and that allows family and friends time to process. Obviously there should be requirements like therapy and stuff first, it shouldn’t be the first option presented, but if a person wants assisted death due to a mental illness that will cause them to suffer the rest of their life I don’t think that should be treated much differently than a person wanting assisted death due to a physical illness that will cause them to suffer the rest of their life.
