Do you think the same way about suicide hotlines?
Of course choosing to die is anyone's right and it is bad that most countries still ban euthanasia, but often people want to die not by choice but because of illness or some kind of misunderstanding, and helping them is a good thing. I don't think that by "psychological care" OP meant "forcibly putting people into ward" which could justify your reply.

Most of the people I know with that view would be very happy with whole brain emulation, so it's not really about the meatbag.
You sound like you think you reside somewhere other than your "meatbag" when you die? Of course if that was true we wouldn't be nearly this uppity about the whole death thing.

How many whole brain emulations? If one is good, why not have many?
