Discussion Suicide censorship in media

[A3re733]

They removed the exit bag tutorial "Doing it with Betty" from youtube.

I watched it a few days ago and now it says video deleted.

It goes to show how slowly but surely suicide is being censored and made harder and harder for people.

"Doing it with Chi" exists on Vimeo.

because they don't want people making the choice of ending their own lives, they want to feel good for ensuring every one lives regardless of pain that someone may be going through!
Censoring suicide and means too is their way of controlling something they simply cannot comprehend.

Suicide isn't being made harder because of it, it just pushes it further underground and makes it more taboo for those who feel they want to talk about it, it creates a stigma that shouldn't be there

In reality we should all be pro choice, but sadly reality doesn't exsit

I said in other threads, I don't get why the world feels it needs to save every suicidal person. I'm nobody's responsibility or problem, I am my own person. I don't need saving.

but how can that stranger feel good if they don't try and at least save one person...
I had one person *save* me, they stood there and spoke to me, they spoke to me after, they made themselves feel good, then suddenly they turned to me nasty and then blocked and deleted me, but hey ho my feelings don't matter, as society feels good for saving one wretched soul who is in pain and has no wish to be here!

YouTube needs you alive for traffic and ad revenue.

you tube is a crock of shit, I prefer live leak, less fakery and insta filters and fake lives!

Agree. People don't realize that they have little power over saving someone, and that their motive to try to do that anyway is just a way to make themselves feel better.

In the end, everyone lives to feel good. One way to achieve that is to make other people feel good/help them, but in the absence of that option, another way to feel good is to create a delusion that you are helping someone.

Self termination being the 10th biggest cause of death in the US today; I'm going to say forced lifers are losing. But think of how much suffering went into that statistic.

Bottom line as far as "society " is concerned, dead people don't generate revenue. All of us rank-and-file robots can't be taxed, worked, incarcerated, medicated, marketed or sold anything, anymore. Just stfu, and generate money for someone else, peasants. Because every product, ummm I mean life, is precious.

Well I wouldn't go as far as to say everyone lives to feel good, maybe 80% of the population, as some truly don't give a fuck!!!

I have a list of many eol videos, 2 are deleted.

Death in a Can: Australia's Euthanasia Loophole

​

the only way to keep videos is saving them ourselfs and resharing on our own accounts, and just resharing until they give up! I have no videos so not something I can do but you ge the idea, maybe?

Did they finally pull down that one guys suicide in front of a press conference? I know I saw that one not to long ago.

Fuck that person and I've ran into my share of pro-lifers, anti-choice people like the one you mentioned. They simply DGAF about what happens to me nor my interests, just wanted to boost their own egos. In that case, it only reinforces my decision to CTB. The other reason I don't open up anymore is that I don't want anything or anyone hindering my efforts to successfully CTB.

This is true and well said. I had a philosophy professor (back when I was in uni, over a decade ago) once said "people don't really like free will, but they like feeling like they are exercising their 'free will'," which sorta describes what you mention here.

Yes, and also keep in mind there are other platforms like Vimeo, Dailymotion, BitChute, to name a few. Also, as long as each of us have videos saved up for our own reference (and backed up in hard drives, other storage mediums), then it doesn't matter if the video isn't on YT anymore.

I think it's okay to remove that. Because video on its own out there in the public square , without context , too accessible , and not part of thoughtful process .

Of course I don't like the general hysteria and instant censorship ..
