It's ultimately the christo-leftist self sacrifice ideology that we see on display here. These people fetishize the idea of sacrifice even when it accomplishes nothing. It's also telling that Bushnell had just severed connections with a Christian cult. This has nothing to do with respecting the dead and more to warn people not to fucking kill themselves. You can do so much good in your life and it's possible and worth it to live so you can feel happy.
I've also had many many friends kill themselves over the years, as is common for a trans "elder". I'm sick of seeing good people die to no benefit and I'm sick of seeing ideologies disseminated that justifies it.
