Daily mail article discussing suicide sites

[lostmyself]

Victims' families call for end of 'death cult' online forums

Websites, found through a simple internet search, connect vulnerable people with thousands of forum members who provide instructions on how to end their lives.

Looks like it is starting again.

[Pen>Sword]

Here we go again.

 

[Broken Buzz]

Hi cult members,

Just a quick reminder of today's schedule. 12.00 is satanic death worship, At 13.00 we'll be boiling babies and drinking their blood (N.B. Please bring your own cup due to covid!!). Then it's tea and biscuits with Elaine and finally, we'll all murder each other.

Thanks again, see you in hell soon

 

[Zinz]

This is absolutely ridiculous.
It's as if they're talking about some other site we've never heard of because the image they're making is so far from what this actually is.

These people are not exactly smart.

I got to know about SS because of one such hit piece by Vice.

People Are Dying After Joining a 'Pro-Choice' Suicide Forum. How Much Is the Site to Blame?

Loss survivors are demanding an end to the site, and provoking a conversation about how little we know about the internet and suicide risk.

www.vice.com

I was so so excited when I read it. They didn't give the name of the forum in the article. I searched for it for a minute or two and landed here among you wonderful people.

Dumbasses don't know that every hit piece on SS would only mean more SS members.

 

[The Lonely]

I would suggest to the community some moderation about providing so many details…

At this point this site must be full of infiltrated.

The young folks with the anime faces also concerns me (true).
(And I don't want to be judgmental!!! but it's true)…

This kind of stuff can put all community down!

 

[Insomniac]

I didn't know about Rose Patterson. She has her own Wikipedia page..

Another case of families that knew nothing about their loved one that choose to ctb and now are trying to find someone or something to blame rather than accepting that it was their decision alone.


People come here mostly to solve their questions of how to do it efficiently and what method is the best for what they want and to vent, no one lured people here like "psss, hey kid, want to catch a bus that's going to Disney?" And gave 'em the kool aid

Excuuuse me

 

[Bigpink]

This hideous right wing, pro life newspaper needs to be shut down. It is a cult aimed at the stupid and easily swayed.

 

[mold]

saw a post calling us "incels" too, really weird imho

 

[Pookie]

I refuse to even read Daily Mail articles. Utter sensationalised trash.

 

[Busticket]

The Daily Mail is a menace to society not this website.
It's is the bottom of the barrel.
They thrive on drama and making news out of nothing.
They should shut down that crappy newspaper and website.

 

[goat]

Those people be like: freedom of speech!!!

Us: ok let's talk about something you don't agree with

They: holdup

 

[Anonymoussn]

• Forum users approach vulnerable members offering to die together in a suicide pact or even murder them and make it look like an accident;

Lol. No-one is offering to murder people. Pretty sure that would be a quick way to get banned.

I have a huge deal of sympathy for families and those affected by suicide. I totally understand why they don't like the site. But the newspapers are dirtbags. They pray on the fear and shock and post clickbait drivel like this. Say what you want about this site, but it will never have ruined as many lives as tabloid journalists have.

 

[BluesRunTheGame]

The Daily Fail is an anti-egalitarian cult.

 

[KuriGohan&Kamehameha]

Daily Fail is likely disabling comments for anyone who questions their one sided narrative.

 

[Deleted member 8579]

Some quotes from the article:

"Many of these suicides are on impulse. The narrative these sites use is so beguiling and it's written in such calm language. Yet these sites never talk about the damage to those you leave behind."

Once again, it's not about the people that suffer so much that they want to kill themselves, but only about "those left behind".

"But it's a dark, evil cult – full of sick people whose motivation is driving vulnerable people towards suicide."

How condescending. We are all "vulnerable people" who don't know what's good for them. Besides, a good part of this website consist of off-topic discussions and silly games, and I have never seen anyone explicitly driving someone to suicide, unless the mere tolerance of suicide already counts as encouragement.

"But it's a dark, evil cult – full of sick people whose motivation is driving vulnerable people towards suicide."

If this is a cult I want my free cyan kool aid already.
With ice.
please

The Daily Mail is in no position to criticize this community given most of the nonsense that they write. If there was an actual person with mental health issues on the street they would likely write an article about them entitled: "Crazy NUTCASE roams the street and makes a twat of themselves!", or something else British along those lines. They change their attitude depending on what the story is about, and to get more views.

"Many of these suicides are on impulse. The narrative these sites use is so beguiling and it's written in such calm language. Yet these sites never talk about the damage to those you leave behind."

This is interesting, because the Daily Mail and similar newspapers are always writing about the so-called "snowflakes" who are apparently offended by everything and are emotionally sensitive, but now they are making an argument against suicide by appealing to emotions. When they talk about "damage" it is another way of saying: "suicide is wrong because it hurts the feelings of others!"

I think that this is hypocritical.

 

[Quinlor]

Interest thinking that the unique motive to Daily Mail publish this is because envolve a PM Tory spouse's , if was a poor work class woman they would be shitting.

 

[Symbiote]

The writer of that article, George Odling, is biased. He's friends and a member of the Stop SS movement and fully involved. Also this is an old article that he reposted many times because I guess no one cared for it or he has to remind DM readers to stop looking a Meghan Markle's ass and focus on pro-life stuff. Also dude has a really punchable face.

Hi cult members,

This is the best thing I've ever fucking read. Thank you for making me laugh on this shitty day. I legit screenshotted this and saving it for posterity. Bless your dark heart.

Also. I don't know about you. But I'm secretly trying to murder you all by supplying you with informed and educated advice. >:)

 

[I am tired]

What I understood from the report was that, no matter your pain, your suffering, etc... We must stay alive and happy to please the people around us. They want to force us to live to make people happy. My life is mine alone, I couldn't choose if I wanted to be born, but I'll decide when I'm going to die. It doesn't matter if my family members are sad, I'm a free man.
I'm afraid that in the future the state will try to control our lives even more, the means of ctb will be restricted, the monitoring will be total and our freedom as a human person will no longer exist.

 

[The Lonely]

Actually Boomers should be here finding a way to "deal" with the lord gift they brought into life without having any capacity to do so!!!

Instead, Is my head at stake, up to engage into an illicit activity just to fix their mistake!!

 

[All Things Must Pass]

That shitty tabloid is so insensitive. How could you have an article about suicide and murder while bombarding the reader with softcore porn?

 

[Ironweed]

She said: 'Part of its allure is that there is nowhere else to go where you can talk freely about these things without being censored.

'But it's a dark, evil cult – full of sick people whose motivation is driving vulnerable people towards suicide.'

A "cult" that even those opposed to this site agree allows free discussion of topics that are suppressed or banned elsewhere. Okay, then.

Jeremy Keeling, 31, from Norwich, was banned from a forum after he tried to discourage members from taking their lives. He was told he was barred for being a 'pro-lifer'.

I'm skeptical it happened this way, but whatever. Go onto Reddit and post even the mildest of comments in favor of voluntary death when terminal illness is not an issue and see what happens. I swear half the threads posted on /r/suicidewatch are shadowbanned nowadays.

 

[goat]

Morons that refuse to use a condom bringing a brand new life to this world and fucking them over not letting them stand a chance from the begging and not giving a fuck if they'll grow to be miserable or make other people miserable for lack of guidance seems to be acceptable to society

But when we want to take the reins of our own lives and put an end in the suffering without jeopardizing other people, whoooaaaa chaos

*Child abuse* people: zzzzzzz
*Abused child not wanting to live with the long last consequences of being abused* people:

Make it make sense
