I hadn't seen this site but will check it out. Thank you for providing some evidence! (really dislike the idea of boogymen! - so seeing a real site is refreshing).

Suicide is a difficult topic. I'd never want anyone (related or otherwise) to be in a position where ending their life is their best option, but then I support euthanasia (a subset of suicide), so I certainly support people obtaining information that could help their situation, even if their situation is difficult, dire and worthy of enormous compassion.

Thanks again for sharing.



The problem is it’s become an entire of subculture of people, almost cult like, who are not only accepting of euthanasia but are actively pro-suicide. I think a lot of people would still be alive if this community didn’t exist. Most of them seem to have mental issues rather than being terminally ill. Also young people are especially vulnerable to being brainwashed by these sorts of things.
