It’s called “copycat suicide” and is a real phenomenon.
You see it alot when school kids kill themselves and then there’s a lot of suicide threats reported among their classmates.
But these are adults. Really, really sad.
But I’m also not surprised.
No, they are liberals.
About 20 years ago, in Japan, there was a rash of group (young adults) suicides via CO poisoning, typically in a van with a charcoal stove.
