as much as i fully support widespread, integrated healthcare being made available to everyone... it is not enough. it's like a village on the edge of a river, where drowning people keep floating by. the village develops emergency response protocols over time to get people out of the river and resuscitate them. as increasing numbers of drowning people keep appearing in the river, the village develops complex, adaptive infrastructure and support system to pull out larger and larger volumes of drowning people and resuscitate them.

yeah exactly, suicide isn't an individual problem and trying to address it through individual actions like therapy or whatever isn't all that helpful. a lot of people's lives just suck. people are more lonely and isolated than ever, they have no sense of community, their material conditions keep deteriorating, and so on.
