An 83-year-old grandmother in Canada has been euthanized by the state against her will. Now, for those of you unfamiliar with new speak, euthanasia is a word that means good death. And it has become a euphemism for suicide, which ironically is the very worst death. But now the word has evolved once more into a euphemism for suicide against a patient's will, which we used to call murder. We will get into the evil brewing in America's top hat. Then President Trump kicks a handful of reporters out of the White House, and the liberals and the squishes in the Republican Party are upset for some reason. You know what I call kicking a few reporters out of the White House? I call it a good start. And the New York Times 1619 Project fabulist, Nikole Hannah-Jones, regrets that her leftist politics led her to betray her own daughter. A cautionary tale on Michael Knowles' The Michael Knowles Show.

An 83-year-old grandmother has been euthanized against her will up in Canada. Euthanized against her will is not just a euphemism, it's a double euphemism. A euphemism is a nice word, it's a good sounding word that covers up a harsh reality. This is indeed much the subject of my best-selling book, Speechless Controlling Words, Controlling Minds, available at a bookstore near you. The euphemisms cover up harsh realities with nice words. Euthanasia is one of those euphemisms. Euthanasia uses the same prefix, eu, meaning good. It's supposed to be the good death. Now for most of our history, a good death is not just some instantaneous death that catches us unawares. It's certainly not a suicide. The good death was the death that you could plan for. Weirdly, now we say the good death is like a piano falls on your head from the sky. In most of the history of our civilization, a good death would have been the kind of death that you see coming. It would have been a long-term illness. The reason that was considered the good death is so that you can get your affairs in order, your temporal affairs and your eternal affairs, that you can confess your sins, you can die in friendship with God, and you can look forward to being with God in heaven forever. Now, because our civilization doesn't believe in God anymore, now we've totally flipped that on its head. So we use this word euthanasia to mean suicide, which is the very worst death, because suicide is the ultimate act of despair. It's an extremely grave sin, so that has eternal consequences. But even for people who aren't that religious, even just at a very human, terrestrial kind of level, it's really sad, right? It's the final thing you do in your sojourn on earth is given to despair. You kill yourself. It's the very worst possible death. Now, though, it's gone further, and it apparently means murder. So there's this woman. We know this has been exclusive in the Daily Mail, written by this woman's family. They say, Our 83-year-old Christian grandmother was euthanized against her will under Canada's assisted dying system. She died covered in blood with her hands clasped in prayer. I won't go through the whole article. As you can see, it's pretty lengthy. I encourage you to read the whole thing on your own time. This is really, really horrifying. We know that a few years ago, Canada legalized doctor-assisted suicide, and all of us social conservatives were warning, this is not death with dignity. This is not just keeping very, very sick, very, very old people from the last few days of suffering. This is gonna be expanded. This is how a lot of people are gonna die. Now, one in 20 Canadians who die each year die via government-sanctioned suicide. That number is only going to increase, and it's not just going to be the people in their absolute perfect right mind or who are in excruciating pain, who can expect to die within hours or days. No, no. This is going to be expanded to start preying on vulnerable people, people who are not fully in command of their mental faculties, people who are young, people who are depressed, people who the state just doesn't want to pay for because in Canada they have a socialist health care system, and people are expensive. It's expensive to take care of people. So there's this very perverse incentive to just shuffle people off, especially because end-of-life care constitutes the bulk, the lion's share of health care spending. So if you can kill people a little bit earlier, the state is going to save a lot of money.
