Why was the suicide rate for young people so low in the 2000s?
>>534478001
>>534478001Bring back bullying.
>>534478001period right after commies lost and before internet happened
Easy>Golden age of video games>No social media >Little to zero smart phones
>>534478001Because these were times where everything was good and future was bright.
>>534478039I’LL CAUSE ONE RECESSION>WHAT?!I’LL CAUSE ANOTHER RECESSION>WHAT?!I’LL CAUSE MASS IMMIGRATION>WHAT?!!I’LL CAUSE A GLOBAL PANDEMIC>WHAT?!I’LL CAUSE MASS ETHNIC REPLACEMENT>WHAT??!!I’LL CAUSE A SECOND PANDEMIC>WHAT??!!I’LL CAUSE THE YOUTH TO KILL THEMSELVES AT RECORD LEVELS AND THAT’S THE BOTTOM LINE, BECAUSE ((STEIN GOLD)) SAID SO!!
>>534478001GTA San Andreas was released
>>534478001Teenagers actually socialized, and had sub cultures to branch off into. Nowadays that doesn't exist.
>>534478001Old internet established communities for just about everybody, no matter how niche. New internet doesn't do that anymore mostly because it's more manageable to have everyone be on a select few sites. >A: surveillance state purposes >B: It's more profitable, even though it's frying everybody brains' because of things like endless scrolling and algorithms causing people to either numb or eventually pop like a kernel
the rebellion winning
suicide rates jumped the moment the iphone released
>>534478398Foids weren't mind raped yet too, to add to what everyone else has already said.
The combination of fast-food, soda, mind-numbing porn and internet bullshit fucks up the human brain.
>>534478455Sounds plausible.You can't talk about bad things now, the algorithm filters it so teenagers literally think they're alone
>>534478001pokemon generations 1-5 once gen 6 happened everyone started killing themselves again
>>534478001Because anti-bullying efforts in schools worked and teachers generally improved by that dip and the old bad ones started retiring, but then social media happened and fucked everything again. Most of these suicide cases you will see some social media retardation or caused by the proliferation of stupid ideas from social media
>>534478001Cheap cigarettes, cheap booze, hot girls, no social media. Plus the whole post-9/11 feel good Murrica Fuck Yeah era where everyone was happy. IPhone damned subsequent generations to the hell of constant scrutiny.
>>534478001It was a great time to be alive.
>>534478814Egads!
>>534478814Trvth nvke>>534478831Imo it seems like these “anti-bullying” movements favor bullies over victims. Bullies know how to be subtle but effective with their bullying, but the victim can only get attention by being loud. Unfortunately the (((school administrators))) will almost always give the victim shit for screaming louder.
>>534478001We were casually fucking a lot.
>>534478001Cold war was over, TWAT hadn't really started yet. Global financial crisis was still a decade away.
>>534479057Anti-bullying efforts in my country were called "zero tolerance for violence" and they punished you for defending yourself against a bully, I kid you not.Because of this as soon as you encountered one your day was ruined no matter the outcome. Either they punished you if you lost or the teacher did if you managed to defend yourself.Shit was fucked.
>>534478001Pill mills, unlimited OxyContin 40mg 80mg pills for 10 dolllars each, dirt cheap cars, peak internet, subcultures, relative racial homogeneity. All the perks of modernity no apparent globohomo interference.
>>534478001The future was actually bright and it was actually easy to socialize. Now third spaces are all gone.
>>534478001instinctually was high
they kill themselves because they're out of shape, fat and ugly.
>>534480367Being out of shape and fat is a function of being mentally disturbed.They kill themselves because they are mentally disturbed.Why are they mentally disturbed is the question and the answer is too antisemitic for the so called modern sensibilities.
>>534478001Less muslims, trannies.Both are prominent causes for and participants in suicide.
Dane Cook was making everyone laugh
>>534478001No war against men yet. The rise in suicide is exclusively due to young males, mostly white. The suicide rate has skyrocketed since 2010 which is when the term "incel" was popularized.
>>534478814I hated the introduction of Fairy type so goddamn much
>>534478001Wrestling
bump
>>534478001Emo girls
>>534479677yeah was some bullshit but niggers kept getting beat up so they tried to make everyone involved the problem instead of calling out niggers. That was here though.
>>534478001>Pokemon>Lord of the Rings>DBZ>Yu-Gi-Oh>Digimon>World of Warcraft>Tomb Raider>Final Fantasy>RuneScape>Zelda>Harry Potter>Toy Story>Wrestling>InternetAll peaked from 95-05 and everyone still had real friends to share in them with
Endless supply of games and toys and great optimism about college life and careers
>>534478001Have you thanked Miyamoto yet?
>>534478001free amazing pussy
Jobs payed nothing, but you somehow had enough money. Good deals and dollar menus. You could buy beater cars for under $1000 that would get you through school.Economy was overall really good.College wasn't nearly as expensive.No smartphones, just basic cellular and payphones.Music was still good. People still had house parties.Movies from 1985-2005 were amazing. No hipsters.Only nerds followed politics. It was easy as fuck to get laid. It's been steadily downhill since then. Not even Millenial-cope-nostalgia, EVERYTHING was better.I am 38.Life does not get better, and having such a shit starting point, I feel bad for the.next generations. Boomers generationally fucked us all by believing da j00z, but Gen Z really got it.
>>534478694This and the racial problem are the biggest deals
>>534478001Combination of the internet and social media starting to take off, the economy recovering and starting to boom after the dot com crash, and no obvious clear threats to national safety after the fall of the Soviet Union and China adopting a free market. Even after 9/11, it seemed like a far-away issue. There was no mass migration from turd world countries yet, so brown people were still viewed as a novelty in many places.
>>534478001>y-axis is 8 to 16might as well be a straight line
>>534478001Social networks
>>534478001because they would just listen to emo songs talking about suicide while not actually killing themselves and cutting their wrists for attention
Life was still good and the future looked promising.
>>534478001Movies, music and media were at their absolute peak.
>>534478378And the music was fucking tits.
>>534481376>that's a horse with an equestrian...but it looks like Dane's eyes.
>>534478001Lots of propaganda to keep you distracted
>>534478398Yeah you could actually talk to a female and actually maybe get a person instead of a mind raped whore who has been fucked by 300 guys per second on Tinder
>>534487568Harry Potter did it I swear. They all started reading Harry Potter and then immediately got into corruption fantasy
The internet and the smartphone played a big role too. Before, you could escape social life after work or school. After, you couldn’t. So this combination of hopelessness that came in along with the internet providing a constant ability to commiserate or get bullied made things worse.
>>534478001Hope and opportunity were still things. Yes, even after 9/11 and the Iraq war. There was still hope among young people of a turn around.These days hope and opportunity are mocked. Young people are more pessimistic. They are probably correct to be.
>>534478001What happened after 2017? The graph ends like a decade ago.
>>534478001Clinton was a good president. Bush ruined it and Obama was a fucking nigger.
>>534488088Damn that tan suit! How could he do this to us?! My grandma cried about it. What a monster.
>>534478001Same reason the first time trump ran everyone was all lets save western civilization compared to the current burn it all to the fucking ground sentiment now; the remaining amount of hope for the future has been plummeting
>>534478333Even being bullied kept kids are part of the community. Everyone gets a good laugh.
>>534478357Before internet happened lmao?Listen hwre vatnig, that period was the fucking renaissance of the interwebs.
>>534488608But here are my guesses>no smart phonesYou could still connect with friends but weren’t glued to device. >no smart phonesEverything you did was not recorded You could say nigger and faggot>bullying was permitted Being bullied by the big kids builds character >96% white people >safe to be outside >community parenting existed
>>534487910>The suicide rate among people aged 10–24 remained stable from 2001 through 2007 and then increased 62% from 2007 through 2021>For people aged 10–14, the suicide rate TRIPLED from 2007 through 2018Source: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/products/databriefs/db471.htm
