The use of the cliche "Sucide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem" demonstrates binary thinking, as though there is only one temporary problem and no compounding factors.
It's also a pretty shitty thing to say. It's designed to make people who may want to die feel worse about themselves by calling their feelings merely "temporary".
- jes 5y agoI was asking weego why they consider ajsnigrutin lucky to hold the binary view you outline.
- notreallyserio 5y agoSure, but publicly, and I had a response (as I was thinking the same thing).
- jannyfer 5y agoThe part you didn't respond to is why they are "lucky" to be able to hold a view... My guess is that if you have such a binary view of the world, you might have lived a simple or sheltered or privileged life.
- notreallyserio 5y agoAh, I see, my mistake. I agree with your guess.
