I'm sorry. Have you considered that they are perhaps not representative of the whole of humanity?
Let's say someone actually wanted to help you. Let's say they truly believed that going outside and interacting with people in person would do you good. How should such a person express their feelings and try to help while acknowledging you, respecting your humanity, and treating you as of equal value as a human?
I would like to act like such a person. How would I do that? (I do want to help you, but I don't think you would believe me)
Thank you. But I don't feel the urge to commit suicide. I don't think the hypothetical person would either.
How would you like me to talk to you?
I am listening to you. But I don't think you want to listen to me.
Is there nothing I could say that would convince you that not everyone is trying to kill you?
If there's absolutely nothing I can do to convince you, it isn't a logical argument you're going with. It's a philosophical or emotional one. Logical evidence based arguments would change if compelling contrary evidence was provided.
Hypocrite. You are just like them.
Are you happy?
It seems like you are lashing out randomly and have a world view that everything is orchestrated to harm you.
You believe that people have killed themselves to make your life worse? I don't want to sound mean, but you aren't the only person.
