The post isn't really advocating suicide, though. It is pointing out an alternative.

Sure, but as I mentioned in my first comment, not everyone is in a position where they can seek the alternative

True, but I don't think this post is likely to push anyone over the edge, and that really has more to do with the lethality of their situation than the use of self-deprecating humour to reach people.

As someone who's been there, this whole line of reasoning just feels like pearl-clutching.
