Send us a textA single week can redraw moral boundaries. When New York and Illinois announced support for “Medical Aid in Dying,” the language sounded compassionate, but the shift was seismic: freedom recast as control over life's endpoint, medicine repositioned to facilitate death, and “autonomy” installed as the supreme value. We trace what that framing means in practice, why euphemisms matter, and how policy teaches culture what to accept as normal.We unpack the promised safeguards—adult age limits, terminal diagnoses, repeated requests—and ask the harder question: what counts as voluntary when bills mount, caregivers strain, and the vulnerable fear becoming a burden? Then we look north. Canada's MAID began narrow and widened to include suffering untethered from foreseeable death, with proposals to extend to mental illness alone. The pattern repeats across Belgium and the Netherlands: once the line moves, categories soften, incentives tilt, and death becomes a system option.Along the way, we reflect on how a culture of death doesn't stay contained to clinics or statutes. Despair listens when society calls death “care.” We honor victims by name, consider the moral spillover from policy to personal choices, and argue for a different vision of dignity rooted in belonging, presence, and community. Autonomy without limits isolates; love with obligations sustains. Choosing life is not naïve—it's disciplined solidarity: palliative care that comforts, mental health access that persists, families and neighbors who refuse to disappear when pain doesn't yield to quick fixes.If this conversation challenged your assumptions or gave you language for a hard debate, share it with someone you trust.

Should We Legalize Assisted Suicide?

One of the most complex medical, ethical, moral, and religious questions of our era is that of physician-assisted suicide—also known as Medical Aid in Dying, or MAID. Eleven U.S. states and Washington, D.C. have legalized some form of MAID for terminally ill patients. And New York might join them. Over the summer, a Medical Aid in Dying Act passed New York's state legislature. It is now sitting on Governor Kathy Hochul's desk as she decides whether to sign it into law. Under the proposed New York bill, terminally ill adults with a prognosis of six months or less to live would be able to access a prescribed, self-administered life-ending medication. Supporters argue that this is a compassionate option—one that can relieve people of immense pain and suffering, allowing patients to choose when and where they die, and to do so surrounded by loved ones. Opponents see this as a violation of physicians' fundamental oath to do no harm. They also worry that while access may begin narrowly, it could expand over time to include people seeking death for reasons other than terminal illness—such as mental suffering or simply a desire to stop living. Cases like this have already occurred in Belgium, the Netherlands, Canada, and Switzerland. Rafaela Siewert sat down with two experts who see this topic very differently for a heated debate. David Hoffman is a healthcare attorney, clinical ethicist, and professor of bioethics at Columbia University. He argues that hypothetical future abuses of MAID shouldn't outweigh the needs of terminal patients who need this option now. Dr. Lydia Dugdale is a physician, medical ethicist, and professor of medicine at Columbia University. In her view, legalizing this practice of physician-assisted suicide risks undermining the responsibilities of governments, medical systems, and families to care for the mentally ill, the poor, and the physically disabled. And she fears that the potential for excessively expanded access over time is too great. We are among the many Americans who do not know what the right answer is. We see both sides—which is why grappling with the nuances of this subject is so important. This is a debate you won't want to miss. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The book is epic in its breadth (looking at labour unrest around the world and across a long period of time), but also firmly committed to viewing class struggle from the bottom up.But most important about the book is how deeply materialist and methodical it is in how it outlines the concrete conditions that gave space for working-class struggle, and how those struggles forced capital to think of new strategies in order to deal with it. Moreover, in doing so, her book also helps us to think and to strategise about working-class organising today.Listen to the full episode here:E113: Radical Reads – Forces of LabourMore informationBuy Forces of Labour from an independent bookshop (or read it online here)Check out our collection of books about labour movement history in our online shopSee the webpage for this episode at https://workingclasshistory.com/podcast/e113-radical-reads-forces-of-labour/AcknowledgementsThanks to our patreon supporters for making this podcast possible.
