Yeah, why target a demographic with rapidly rising suicide rates fueled by discrimination? I swear some of you guys are just too fucking dumb to be having these conversations.
The amount of effort to maintain multiple personalities for this long would be even more embarrassing and pathetic than just being radicalized by Tim Pool and friends. And honestly, I've seen worse outside of this forum so none of the things I read here are all that shocking or uncommon for fascist weirdos to say.
Having the capacity for critical thinking and the willingness to be wrong is the exact opposite of dumb, imo.

- Christopher HitchensPopulists (and "national socialists") look at the supposedly secret deals that run the world "behind the scenes". Child's play. Except that childishness is sinister in adults.

It's probably better to diversify them, so workers aren't overloaded and certain topics that require more sensitivity/knowledge can be tended to. A lot of people feel better reaching out when they think they'll be more easily understood. Think of schools and teachers/faculty w/ those stickers for different topics on their doors. People may think it's surface-level virtue signaling, but it does make it easier for troubled kids to know where they can go when they're afraid.

Uhm, i bets there are lots of private companies u could call or new ones have now sprung up to offer services. What exactly is the problem here?
I wonder if the idiots asking "but wuts da problem, bro?" would be similarly baffled if some radical feminist type (who somehow happened to be in a position of power like this) removed resources for at-risk men because they didn't want to appear to be in support of that group of people.
1) Removing mental health services from a community that is at a high risk of suicide is kind of a cunt move.
2) These are, as said, under the umbrella of healthcare which like justice (i.e. law enforcement and the penal system) and education should never be privatized because they directly correspond directly to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
Don't let me interrupt your complete and utter lack of empathy, though.
