@Typo-MAGAshiv thanks. I know about the signs you mentioned, at least on paper. did not notice something like that though. he also had a dog who he just left behind, his sister has it now. thinking about his latest behaviour he was just eager to be helpful with anything possible lately, in hindsight maybe too eager. he also worked out a lot in the last year - a friend speculated that he wanted to leave this world being in a shape as best as possible.
I'll check out Terrence Popp, thanks. I don't mind if it's more MGTOW than RP, as long as it's not bullshit. I just watched a TEDx talk about male suicide and it degenerated into "it's ok to express your feelings and we must not judge expressions of feelings". I guess I deserved that one for being naive
So, an idiot friend of mine committed suicide a couple of days ago, we had plans to go biking in the mountains two days after the day he eventually hanged himself. I'm at a loss now, I know I'm not at fault but I still can not stop wondering what I could've done differently to ease his pain.
He's not from my closest circle of friends but he is in the top anyway. We lost some contact for almost ten years but lately we've been getting in tough more and more, and I haven't managed to catch any sign, nor did we manage to have a deeper conversation. I'm pretty pissed that his family (and his sister whom I know as well) apparently knew about him but haven't said anything to no one.
He ended a relationship two years ago because he didn't see any point in that and since then he changed, some other common friends claimed. I refuse to think it was just that failed relationship that brought him to this point, I'm certain it was a accumulation of factors which I'm not going to share them now.
Do you guys know of any male suicide/depression resource, that leans more on the RP side? I don't want no normie hurr durr men repress feelings bullshit. I sometimes feel that I'm at a risk myself (but in 10 years if things continue like they are currently so there's still time), but I also want to be more aware about subtler signs in others, and how to relate to them. This dude was usually bubbly and energetic so he hid his pain pretty well. I'm sure a male-male conversation with realtalk might've steered his boat to calmer waters.

@TiberiusBravo87 exactly, that's what I was thinking, and this just makes the dudes point from the video posted - those molotov prepping "parties" sure make for a great photoop - the comment sections of those pics just prove that
@Elvis_Fawksley if he's right that's pretty fucked up, and he might be, cause what he says makes a lot of sense. In my facebook feed at least a lot of these "photo ops" started to show up, videos with nice montages and dramatic music in the background with text like "I'm a taxi driver, I'm a programmer, I'm a business owner, but we're going to war". but also other pics are showing up online with random citizens preparing for "parties" with cocktails (you know which ones) - I was thinking, if I was one of them, how the fuck am I supposed to go to a russian tank and blow it up with a bottle, and make it out alive?
@destraht my Putin-is-antifa rhetoric was thought more of a tongue in cheek question initially cause words like fascists and nazis are thrown so cheaply these days (big bad Trump is a fascist etc) by liberal types who also support antifa more or less so I'm just happy to have the opportunity to mock them by comparing Putin and antifa and short circuit their brains.
That being said I did not throw this in here in order to troll 'cause this is not the place for this. You actually preempted another question I would have had - I'm curious what's the actual situation in Ukraine behind these accusations that Putin is making (neonazis being in control in Ukraine). I heard something in the media regarding this but I deliberately chose to ignore it because (1) I don't trust media outlets (2) what I said above with regards to value of words (3) I don't trust Putin as Romania (and implicitly our brothers and sisters in Moldova) have had historical quarrels with Russia, and Russian propaganda spews bullshit in this regard as well
If you have any more info to add to this please go ahead as I'm curious (if you have links handy that explain this angle in more detail, those are fine too). The situation is volatile in the area and it could escalate.
Read More@LeonBarosanul Well there are actual dyed-in-the-wool Nazis with mercenary militias in Ukraine that have largely rebranded from the hard swastica to a variation of it. It's a mutated form of Nazism, but absolutely tracing its roots back to actual Nazis past and present. While that is completely true though, it's also sometimes hugely exaggerated by Russian propaganda.
There are a lot of problems.
So basically Putin is Antifa? Fighting nazis in Ukraine?
