What really bothers me is that they don't get down to the bottom of WHY this guy wanted to convince people to unalive themselves. Not just "because he wanted to feel powerful" because most people want that and few of them do what he did. Carceral punishment doesn't ID the root of the problem.

Hi guys, this is your periodic reminder that if you are experiencing thoughts of self harm or are in a crisis and need help (and are in the US), you can call or text 988 to be connected to a live volunteer any time of day or night.
