Hes talking about that Blue Whale suicide challenge or whatever made by some ruskie. Seems to be causing havoc in Brazil.

Does anyone here actually have a link to blue whale if it's still going? (cause ik the guy got arrested) I wanna try it just to prove to myself I can resist that kind of brainwashing as a kind of fucked up mental stability test

>>19405960
I gotta confirm this. Do the participants actually get brainwashed into doing this or do the "administrators' that guide the participants actually have dirt on them?

Is not that strange when you think about it. The people who fall for this are already suicidal, and if they want some extra attention to their suicides they just have to follow the blue whale bs, they will be all over the news a perfect suicide for someone who wants attention.

I think it's a mix of both; a lot of the tasks include waking up in the small hours & watching videos or listening to music sent to you by the organisers. That's around the time when most people are naturally tiredest by body clock, which makes them more susceptible to ideas & thoughts that would normally be brushed off without second thoughts

>>19406089
I also heard in almost every article I read on blue whale that there's always blackmail involved

normies and stupid youtubers

what

Its not an actual thing.

When I was younger the news had a big thing about "suicide pacts" with teens forming them over MySpace and killing themselves.

Its all a big meme

When I was a kid, we had DnD suicide pacts, lol

>>19406453
I don't think so.

>>19406453
You don't believe In suicide pacts? Lol that's just ignorant

>>19406475
When I was a kid, we had "Enlist in WWI and fight the Kaiser" suicide pacts, I probably fucked your great-grandma in the ass

If you're dumb enough to kill yourself because an app said to it's probably in the best interests of the species that there are more versions of said app

TL:DR

it was all for the lulz

There's copycats. It was supposedly a very widespread phenomenon at the time, so it inspired similar bullshit.
An alienated psych student stumbled upon the right strings to pull to make anyone do anything (that they had considered before) and used the psychological attack to kill at least sixteen teenage girls.
