A renowned American musician underwent assisted suicide in September of this year, despite having no terminal illness. Anton Fier traveled to Switzerland, where he was killed at a Pegasos facility because he felt like he had “completed life.”
According to the Independent, Fier had a long and successful career in music. He worked as a drummer, producer, and bandleader, and played alongside notable musicians like Herbie Hancock, Michael Stipe, and many more. Yet the New York Times reported he had battled with alcoholism. “I don’t care,” Fier allegedly said. “I’m not going to live to be 35.”
Fier ended up living well past 35, but he ended his life at 66 despite being relatively healthy. He seemed to suffer from ills that could have been addressed; the Times said he had financial problems and could no longer play music due to injuries to his wrists. “He had a lot of pressures and a lot of anxieties,” Lianne Smith, a singer-songwriter and close friend of Fier’s, said. “But when he played music, he was a complete human being.”
Philip Nitschke, the director of assisted suicide group Exit International who has earned himself the nickname “Dr. Death,” told the Independent Fier was not ill, but merely felt he had accomplished all he could in life.
Before his death, Fier had allegedly stopped drinking alcohol, though he was reportedly being “hounded by creditors” and had clearly become suicidal. Smith said he had begun saying he wanted to “fly to Thailand, have a wonderful vacation, take a lot of drugs and walk into the ocean.”
Fier was killed by the same organization that helped multiple women die, despite the fact that they were healthy. Nitschke has also advocated for healthy people to be allowed to die through assisted suicide, and encouraged other countries to follow Switzerland’s lead — allowing people like Fier, who are merely “tired of life,” to be killed.

Diabolic.
i always find it odd suicide is more normalized than eternity
Maybe wanting to get ahead of charges for kiddie diddling.
I researched the cost and it’s close to 20 grand for assisted suicide in Switzerland, plus airfare, hotel, companion fares, etc. could have paid some debts with that money or even told the bill collectors to fo.
Who?
May not have wanted to subject himself to medical treatment instead of cures.
maybe this organization should be held responsible for these debts now.
Survival of the fittest always finds a way.
Before modern society only the strong would survive.
But in modern times we've made sure to help the weak survive.
But the weak don't even want to survive, and nature takes it's course, one way or another.
