Abstract
In debates over medically assisted dying right to die activists are often accused of embracing an unbridled neoliberal individualistic ethics that devalue life and reject notions of community and care. Through an ethnographic study of activists in North America and Australia, this article aims to complicate this point of view by showing how they are deeply invested in what it means to act morally in the world vis‐à‐vis their relationships with others and how they envisage this issue within an ethics of care. Although activists are often accused by opponents of delegitimising the ageing process and relying on atomised individual values, in depth interviews with right to die activists reveal complex, ambiguous and contradictory reflections on the ageing process as a dominant source of suffering while defending an ethics of care and life. In the end, this article argues that the right to die paradoxically constitutes an ethics for living.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
