Someone has the right to pass away peacefully in their sleep, rather than continue living because some fans want them to keep reaching milestones. They're HUMAN BEINGS who have the RIGHT TO DIE. You're still, even now, trying to DEMONIZE me. I did not say "I hate this person and want them dead." I meant "this person has severe dementia and I hope she passes away peacefully so her family won't have to watch her keep deteriorating". Is that the kind of life YOU'D want to live?

RIGHT to PRIVACY. Takatoshi Odate had the right to privacy. If his family wanted his name disclosed, they would have done so. But instead, we took his name from the Japanese Centenarians Directory. And yet, Harumi Nakamura, WHOSE NAME IS IN THE SAME DIRECTORY, stays listed as "anonymous" for "insufficient evidence." You can't say that the Directory is sufficient in fifteen other cases but not this time. It's recentist bias.

It does not matter. You do not wish death on people. It's not Robert's rule, it's society's rule.
