    Consciously I know that. But having lived under cruelty for many years I cant compute it emotionally in this case. The amount of cruelty needed to drive someone to suicide (not saying its always like this) is just not bearable for me.

      That’s basically tautological. That which is not bearable is that which drives a person to suicide.

        No idea what you‘re talking about.

        Nobody can really say what drives a person to suicide but afaik, it is a culmination of things:

        • hardship
        • loneliness
        • lack of positive perspective

        Having hardship but still having friends and family to combat it or a positive perspective on life might save someone.

        But leaving someone who already spent effort to help others in particular need - likely having a history of spousal abuse themselves - ridiculing them which drives them to suicide is beyond cruel imo.

        Thats why I‘m pretty devoid of empathy towards the people responsible.
