Alfie Evans To Be Killed By Government?

Typical Rabbitry:

Alfie suffers from a rare neurological condition that is destroying his body and doctors at the Children’s Hospital say his condition is too far gone and so they want to withdraw his life support which could kill him. His parents say they have a hospital in Rome, Italy ready to take him to provide appropriate medical care and treatment that the Children’s Hospital is denying and possible treatment that could overcome his neurological disorder. But the Children’s Hospital refuses to allow Alfie’s parents to take him to Italy.

Now his parents are headed to the European Court of Human Rights after Britain’s Supreme Court sided with the Children’s Hospital that will terminate his life support over his parents objections.

Look at the fundamental difference in world views. Not being an r-strategist rabbit, I could understand if the government and the Hospital said that they could not provide free medical care, and if the parents couldn’t pay they would have to terminate support for economic reasons. But I would never deny a parent the right to try and save their child using any methods they wanted to, if they could pay for it.

But here the r-strategist rabbits show how they innately believe the exact opposite. They are saying that a parent who can pay for a treatment should be able to be told, “No, we are going to end your child’s life, and no you cannot treat him.” And yet, at the same time, they believe nobody should ever be denied a medical treatment that might save them, no matter the cost. They assume free resources, and indeed, desire copious overconsumption, while accepting that children can be, at the whim of anyone, simply killed on demand.

It is the same thing with guns. We want criminals imprisoned, violent foreigners barred from entry, and regular citizens armed and able to defend themselves, so the good guys can survive and the predators die. Meanwhile the leftists want regular citizens disarmed, violent foreigners imported, and they support coddling and freeing imprisoned killers and criminals. They want a world ruled by predators where their kind is routinely preyed upon.

It is a very strange psychology to us, because we just are not designed for that-r-selected environment, or to want to see it around us. But viewed as an outgrowth of an r-selected psychology, it all makes perfect sense.

Spread r/K Theory, because K’s and r’s are different
