Why can’t you talk about the S word in most social media platforms?

Why can’t you talk about it? You should be able to talk about it! If you can’t talk about it on social media! WHERE ELSE WOULD/CAN YOU TALK ABOUT IT!!

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

I assume it's made like this to prevent cascading effects spreading among people.

As for where to talk about it, here is a line: https://988lifeline.org/

WHY WOULD YOU TALK ABOUT IT TO PEOPLE WHO CAN LOCK YOU UP

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

Because those people don't have power to lock you up, and these help lines are confidential

[MusicTokuXX]

WTF IS THAT GOING TO DO THO? HOW ARE THEY SUPPOSED TO HELP YOU?

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

it's one option you have to talk, freely, of suicide, with people and without being punished for it

[Calyptomaniac]

I don't see why you can't talk about skullduggery anywhere you want

[MusicTokuXX]

I meant suicide

[kissmyring]

Shit?

[MusicTokuXX]

Suicide

[kissmyring]

Oh. Well that’s because social media are private entities who can decide what is and isn’t okay to talk about and considering discussions of suicide can encourage suicide and they want to keep their users alive as long as possible because that means they make less money. So that’s probably why they block any and all mentions of it when applicable
