“What’s Something People Think Is Unethical, But You Don’t See A Problem With?” (31 Answers)

Vaccines are mandatory (unless child is immuno-suppressed etc) to enrol in childcare and school in Australia and it's not as easy as the US to take on homeschooling. Despite this, a recent thing I read said vaccination numbers have gone down in the last two years.

The only valid exceptions for vaccination are medical. There are people who can’t have certain vaccines because of allergies or sensitivities to certain components, and there are people whose immune systems are too compromised to withstand even a vaccine-level exposure. These are the people the rest of us get vaccinated to protect via herd immunity. Superstition should not be permitted to compromise public health.

This is wrong on so many levels.

They also shouldn't have the right to force them

I'm prepared to be down voted but flouride in water doesn't necessarily help with your teeth. I'm all for flouride in toothpaste and getting flouride treatments at the dentist. But the effectiveness of fluoridation in water was not validated by any randomized controlled trial.

Story of my entire f*****g childhood. Oh, those boys were throwing things at your head for the entire maths class while I did nothing? You finally lost your temper and yelled, so therefore it's all your fault! Now I will humiliate you in front of everyone while the bullies who caused all this watch and laugh! RRRRRRGH

It should be a restorative practice model, instead of these zero tolerance ones.

There is a certain current section of Society that think it is wrong to punch (neo)n@zis…they are of course…wrong.

Exactly!

I was picked on by one of the ‘cool kids’ until one day I’d had enough and I pushed her over. She never bothered me again. It wasn’t a big deal as she wasn’t hurt but she realised I wasn’t taking it anymore. I regret nothing.

FGM and honor killings? Nah, shame that forever until it stops. It's brutal and horrific.

"That may be your culture, but it's not mine " - we can all say that, if we choose.

Killing dolphins or whales.

This applies to, for example, the treatment of animals in islamistic slaughtering. Them being distressed is a known and proven fact. Them needing to be sentient while dying is sadistic and, at best, a very adventurous claim, politely stated. And so much more, so many more... Religion, here, delivers, of course, as it is the only thing allowing to openly disregard facts and prefer fiction, and getting away with it. Doing this, the sentient slaughtering, should land you in jail for years straight!

Whether I agree or disagree with abortion, it should be left up to the women!

Women (and men) should have free birth control and access to s*x education starting at age 12. The choice to use birth control (and abortion) should be up to the woman. Men should not be allowed to use a woman solely as incubators.

Exactly. Nobody should be trapped in their own body.

A LOT of people don't understand that a miscarriage IS a type of abortion. The body is aborting the " foreign" item that is ( at the time ) toxic and harmful to the mother. . It's a natural , non medical assisted abortion. And women NEED the aftercare that a hospital or clinic provides for this... As some of the fetus can remain , get infected , and cause the mother to pass on...

I fully support this, even did one of my reports in medical billing school on it. If you have a degenerative disease or have terminal cancer, you should have the option of going out your way instead of living through the pain until you die. I am sure that if it was legal in Washington in the 90s, my grandma would have chosen that way to go. She had ALS and had to go through hell before she died. My stepdad on the other had had stage 4 metastatic cancer, which is terminal, and he opted to get the meds for this, he did end up passing before using them though. This was only 5 years ago.

If I had an incurable disease, I'd have it done.

We have to be very careful with this, though I generally support it. However, there are many cases of caregivers murdering the person they're caring for, and I'm afraid that permitting human euthanasia would be ripe for abuse. I think if it was passed, it would need to be accompanied by funds to help care for those who need help, to take some of the burden off family caregivers, as well as counseling for the person who wishes to die and their loved ones, and proper pain management.

So I am against Euthanasia so long as health insurance is provided by for-profit companies. The problem with Euthanasia is that it can be abused and pretty seriously so. How long before euthanasia is the only "treatment " covered by insurance for a serious but treatable disease, but euthanasia is cheaper? What happens when a low income person chooses euthanasia because they don't want to be a financial burden on their family because the treatment for their condition is too expensive? Of course, we also have the question of "who decides?" The potential for abuse is way to large. Maybe, if the decision were being OKed by a medical board that could be trusted, I would be OK with it.

I saw a discussion on this on TV some time ago, someone from where it is already legal said that knowing that the option is there if the pain becomes too much enables people to cope with the pain better, knowing this escape is available in fact actually helps them live longer and happier.

AHAHahahah "genocide of disabled ppl" is clearly deluded virtue signaling going way too far... Ask anyone with a disability if they would remove a clearly negative mutation had they the choice... Why is this even an issue??? As soon as i was born i had to do multiple surgeries. I was not even 1 week old! This must be coming from religions or modern day culty "progressive" and "empathic" echo chambers.

100%...Society has just overcorrected to an insane degree. There's a big difference between eradicating discrimination of those inflicted with disabilities and trying to elevate those disabilities to something that needs to be protected and perpetuated. I'm half deaf (60-40 hearing loss) It's not a culture...it's a disability that overtly negatively impacts my life. Every single day. Same with my crippling ADHD.

True, but it should only be legal for illnesses, not because you want to change their characteristics.

Childfree woman here, and I'm all for them. Kids are IMPULSIVE, and they are fast little runners. Keep them safe. Make it harder for them to fall and hurt themselves or get snatched.

You should always ask them "Is that a rescue?"
