85% of the soldiers in our units are orphans whose parents were martyred by the occupying state. Today, those children have grown up and their hearts are burning with the fire of revenge!

Usually when leftists say: "X has a right to A", what they mean is: "X deserves A but I don't have to help X get it."

What we need are leftists saying instead: "I have a duty to help X get A."

The notion of "rights" amplifies:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bystander_effect

This is the real reason why Western colonialists were so keen to teach non-Westerners what their "rights" were. This ensured that when the Western colonialists themselves then violated the non-Westerners' "rights" in plain sight, their victims' response was to merely point out to the Western colonialists that their "rights" were being violated (as if this would prompt the Western colonialists to voluntarily stop doing so) instead of doing their duty of exterminating the Western colonialists ASAP.

Anti-euthanasia advocates say it’s wrong anyone would kill themselves because they don’t want to be a burden. They think humans should want to burden each other!

They talk about “human dignity.” Yet they want to force people into the most degrading lives possible.

Grotesque.

Again, when quoting an enemy, please clarify that they are an enemy and clarify how our view differs from theirs.

I don't disagree with anything he is saying, so. I don't see any difference in this specific post. Do you? I do however agree that he is our enemy.

"Do you?"

This is a strawman. Actually, they would surely rather the person in question were not a burden in the first place. But when a person becomes a burden through no fault of their own, they understand that society has a duty to take on the burden (that no one wanted).
