promote suicide, but then I see in the news that it keeps on happening. It makes me wonder how on Earth the conversation leads there, because if you start going 'im depressed and i want to commit suicide" it goes "i can't engage with this, please call a helpline"I remember a passage from one story where such things were ridiculed, where corporations said that everything was fine, it was a temporary problem, it happens, or even better: nothing happened, your eyes and ears are deceiving you.
