MODERATORS
Immensely tone-deaf of you to blame the suicide demographic for killing themselves.

I assume it's ignorance instead of ghoulishness :(
I think you got me wrong here?
What I was trying to say is that there are still a lot of people saying "there is no such thing as depression" - mostly from old white men, telling people to pull themselves together.
It read to me like you were blaming the type of humans most likely to commit suicide for committing suicide.
