@lime__green__ yeah who cares this is still far better than somebody actually opinionating that other races should be dehumanized. these are just some dumbass unfunny jokes from a decade ago
“You can't say people should help and also claim it's irresponsible to speak up first.”
right after i stated in my other reply that explicitly telling people you are choosing suicide and sticking to it is a whole different story then simply opening up about your suicidal problems, that is which i absolutely WANTED Max to do instead, at least speak up about his problems and then allow himself to be open for discussion on solutions afterwards, rather than ending the speech with telling people “it’s my choice, sorry guys now let’s move on”.
to put it in short summary, i do think everything i said would be inappropriate if i said this to someone opening about suicidal thoughts. however, if they explicitly say they will commit suicide, i will be disappointed and hit them with the blunt reality as a way to convince them, as controversial as it is
i think one big problem i am having with your entire message and that i wanna make a big point out to you is i’m not making it out that Max shouldn’t open up. opening up, confronting his suicide issues, and being open to solution is absolutely something i want him to do. however, what he did is a completely different story. he went over with his audience about his explicit plan for suicide and insisted he was sticking by his choice, and he wasn’t open to solution, he was being dismissive over his superchats trying to give him the help. you see, if he opened up, confronted it, and being open to solutions while discussing it with fans, i wouldn’t have made my message as firm as it is in the first place.
but the rest of what i am about to say will be extremely unfortunate, i do not have to take serious suicide choices lightly as i will always think it will be a highly damaging choice. as hurtful as it sounds, there are absolutely better solutions to his problems other than suicide. he already listed two better solutions, two of which he chose not to do, which i think is not cool, him choosing a damaging solution over two healthy options he listed is kinda fucked. to go over why i think suicide is highly damaging, i have to stand by my choice of words on hitting them with the blunt reality. suicide transfers the pain onto other people, suicide causes corruption, suicide sends harmful messages to others (such as to think life is over, etc.), those are things that are highly realistic and some people like myself do believe hitting them with that reality will actually help them rethink their decisions when reaching their breaking point. i know those things would convince ME to rethink if i was in my breaking point. now i do understand you have a different opinion on believing saying something like that to someone who’s unwell is going too far, but i believe the oppposite. hitting them with this reality does help and that’s unfortunately why i choose not to back down on my statements over it
and i will especially not take it lightly when people are going around saying “it’s Max’s choice, he can do it if he wants”. thats suicide enabling. people shouldn’t be fucking telling him to do this, they should be helping him, and confront to him that it’s the worst choice. don’t eliminate your chance of ever having a good life again just to cause even more pain onto others.
and as for the drawing i made in the image, you can call it distasteful, but it wasn’t added out of ego, it absolutely fucking represents how i feel: i am disappointed in Max 😒
i know im saying all this like it matters now which it doesn’t because he already reconsidered. i am very happy he did it, its the absolute right choice. but still, all my points stands. and i apologize you dont agree with me
@sgmfda expressing suicidal thoughts and being open about it is a far different story than telling people that you’re making a plan for suicide, and telling him that he should go for it if he wants to, nobody should be doing that, they should be trying to help him
i only said that he should not commit suicide, that suicide does more bad than good. i think i would only say that to people because they’re human and don’t deserve to end up thinking their life is over. you guys encouraging that he should go along with it is the real thing thats not human
@InverseNinjas you share most of the same mindset as what i’m thinking of and i see people are giving us both flack for it, why is it bad for us to tell someone that they should not commit suicide? that suicide is the worst option ever?
@radiowormorsmth@BrainDumpTweets if your idea is that i shouldn’t tell him that suicide normalizes the belief of it being the answer and it is what people are currently doing, then no
