How did they get the rope around him lol
Presumably someone grabbed him and then they grd the rope through and round. Adding more rope and belts as more folks arrived.
Suicides no joke.
I'm very worried about everyone here. Really, I know that there is a way out that isn't suicide--it's revolution--but it seems like you've all submitted to Capitalist Realism. I've thought about risking my life in an attempt to overthrow the state, but unlike you all, I am legitimately afraid of losing my life. It'd be such a sad note to end my life on. I wouldn't be there to see any surprising good things happen. I wouldn't get to see a socialist system established before me, and I wouldn't be able to do anything to help anyone. How come you all feel fine about death? There's nothing afterwards. There were the Viet Cong who couldn't live to see their country establish socialism, there were the Leninists who died fighting the Tsar who couldn't see the Soviet Union come to be, there were the slaves who died in Southern plantations who couldn't see Juneteenth. If you were really willing to die, you'd die in battle.
Bruh bleeding out in a pit of mud on the battlefield as other random people fall on top of my already crushed ribs is way fucking worse than a bullet to the dome.
Plus, this revolution could easily go the other direction and I'll end up being tortured to death anyway. I feel like this take is possibly the most historically ignorant one possible.
People don't really feel "fine about death" but more like "being alive feels worse than death".
There is almost always some thing in such a person's life that is causing such feelings. Even if someone thinks the world is better off without them, it's caused by how they "perceive" their impact on the world, which can be caused by the way other people interact with them.
The problem with the Western middle class is they've been conditioned to think they're part of the ruling class.
They believe that the ruling class' successes are their own, until it's time to get ready to go to work the next day.
They see themselves as above poor people and believe they're entitled to more before those who have less.
They always believe the solution to their problems is to make more, not spend less.
The issue isn't just capitalism. It's not just greed. It's a culture of consumerism. Hopefully anyone who has been around for a few decades can recognize how much the social landscape has changed in favor of encouraging people to sell themselves out as quickly as possible.
We are living in the most negative of peaces.

Then, after you get “saved” from suicide, they strip you of your rights and shove you in a cell for up to five days.
And that attitude is what the staff will have towards you. You are there to be punished for daring to be suicidal and trying to reject the gift of life. You’ll probably lose your job after the hospital stay, and then get stuck with thousands in bills for the “treatment” (sitting in a room watching day time tv while you listen to people in psychosis or dementia getting the shit beaten out of them by the staff.)
But this is a good thing! It’s so much better to be alive then not dead, that’s why we need to abuse suicidal people!
