In its never-ending mission to be the most “progressive” country in the world, the Netherlands just murdered a child. It was the first time a doctor has legally “assisted in the death of a terminally ill child aged between 1 and 12,” according to Sophie Hermans, the minister of health, welfare, and sport.

The Netherlands was the first country in the world to legalize voluntary euthanasia in April 2002, before expanding this law in 2024 to include children. According to the Dutch government’s website on “Termination of life for terminally ill children” from 1-12: “Sometimes, a child is so severely ill that the parents and doctor together decide that there is no alternative but to terminate the child’s life.”
