minus-square@Hyzerfliplink12•1 year agoI’m not opposed to this guy living his best life without anyone interfering…but when you force other people to interfere because they have to REPEATED SAVE YOU…then no, you no longer are able to make sane decisions.
minus-squareadmiralteallinkfedilink8•1 year agoI came here expecting to be wondering why they don’t just let him do it and die if he wants. But no, this dude’s nuts. Repeated rescues including suicide and bomb threats. Of course, a bit of a catch-22 is appearing here. Anyone attempting to do this is almost definitionally too insane to be allowed to attempt it.
