They seem to be talking about people who can't afford end-of-life care. So, I'm guessing that the idea that these people will be screaming 'I don't want to die!' as they're strapped down and given lethal injections is, I'm guessing, false.
The mention of dementia tells me they're looking at people who are more or less mindless bodies with no current medical hope of recovery.
At least, I hope that's what they're talking about.
"Help, I don't want to die!" claimed the patient who was clearly suffering from dementia. We're doing the right thing by respecting his true wish to die that he can't espouse properly due to the dementia we are in charge of diagnosing.

More like 'MNNGGH, HMMNNNH MMNEMMM!', screamed the patient as he was being moved from one room to the next, having no idea that he was lying in pile of his own shit and piss and had been for the last two days.
'FFGGHHGNNNHH!!!!' He screamed, thrashing and swinging his fists at his wife as she attempted to bathe him. He had no idea who she was. As far as he was concerned, he had never seen her before in his life, and she had just stepped into his bedroom.
You gotta set precedent somewhere. Lenin didn't show up day-1 of his revolution and say "okay, time to starve all the farmers to death because I enjoy lethal irony.", you set precedent with things few people would argue against.
Actually, he did. It was called War Communism. After the civil war ended, he had to relent, and peasants acquired some economic and personal freedom until collectivization.

They also said the truckers were terrrists. Im glad that you can believe them.
It's not so much a matter of believing them and more a matter of knowing how utterly grim palliative care can be.
Just because the government lies does not mean every outlandish claim is true.
