It’s like it isn’t the concept of suicide that people might not like, it’s just the literal word itself apparently.

People don’t beat around saying “suicide” because they’re not trying to trigger anyone? It’s a way of getting around censorship. Tiktok has history with hiding videos that talk about serious mental health issues from the algorithm (they even shadowbanned the word “depression” so people were using “d3pr3ssion” or some shit)

Sometimes people even self-censor while being intentionally triggering, for example they know if they said “kys” their comment would get filtered, so you might see people saying “unalive yourself” or “keep yourself safe”
