Do you know any old people? Lots of them still have joyful and valuable lives. Also, quit talking about people in terms of "usefulness". Sick people aren't "useful", disabled people aren't "useful", but they most certainly have a fucking right to live.

I agree that artificially keeping a person alive while they no longer have any joy or value in their lives might be wrong, but this is a very difficult assertion to make and is certainty a lot more complex than your "just kill everyone at 65".

Also, the problem is not population, it's how consumer focused our society is, constantly throwing away sustainable and ecological solutions for the sake of more profit.

Wow, that is absolutely insane. My parents are around that age and as active and healthy as ever. I expect them to live another 30 years at least. They both still work even, and are damn good at their jobs.

I somehow feel as if you would be a hoot to have a beer with, but unfortunately this is the nice Lemmy instance with … shock … users over the age of 65. Even though part of me thinks you are just trolling the mods, we can’t leave up anything that even remotely reads as advocacy for murder.

Stay away from those bears.
