    Life expectancy in the US is dropping at a pace not seen since World War I because every year more and more people are killing themselves. Maybe stop hectoring those who don’t view contemporary America as the greatest of all possible existences

        This suicide epidemic is partly fueled by the opiod crisis, partly be the desperation caused by late-stage capitalism

        It's also partly loud triumphalism (demographic--including urban over rural and the 'ascendant' over the past) making people feel disconnected from the present and future of their nation and communities. Loss of rootedness and hope leads to despair.

        feels like parts of the country are headed to a mortality crisis like Russia went through in the early '90s.

        Beyond not heckling, how about not threatening people's livelihoods with unemployment? This is a major driver of suicide, and a federal jobs guarantee would help with this.

        Well the "problem" with that is that takes away the ability to wage economic warfare on the opposing tribe via seizing institutional HR power and rampant social media policing, and so it's going to be incredibly politically unpopular.

        Perhaps there's a correlation between politicians owned by corporations screwing everyone that isn't rich and non-rich people deciding to get hopped up and/or end it all.

        I'm quite sure that the opioid epidemic has contributed far more to the drop than suicide

        Directly related to the increase in selfishness, irresponsibility, and lack of accountability.

        How much of this is because of the tens of thousands of Americans dying each year from fentanyl? The Chinese fentanyl labs and Mexican cartels need to be dealt with. Build a wall on the southern border and treat fentanyl labs in China as producers of mass murdering WMD.

        Suicide rates would go down if we brought troops home from endless wars like in Afghanistan, as war vets have a very high suicide rate. This would also end wasting trillions of dollars on failed wars, money that could be used here in the USA. America First.
