Most social media sites prohibit their users from encouraging suicide.
For good reason.
I'm surprised SI allows this.
I am not, however, surprised a sick fuck like you has found the one site on the internet where management is clueless about the liability they expose themselves to by allowing you to do this.
BlueSky's policy:
Mental Health & Wellbeing:
We support a healthier community by prohibiting content that could harm people's mental or physical health.
Do not share content, methods, instructions, or promotion of self-harm, suicide, eating disorders, and extreme dieting practices.
X's policy:
You may not promote or encourage suicide or self-harm.
At X, we recognize that suicide and self-harm are significant social & public health challenges that require collaboration between all stakeholders – public, private, and civil society – and that we have a role and responsibility to help people access and receive support when they need it.
When developing this policy, we consulted extensively with experts to ensure that people who have engaged in self-harm or experienced suicidal thoughts can share their personal experiences. We also recognized the need to protect people from the potential harm caused by exposure to content that could promote or encourage self-harm – intentionally or inadvertently. That’s why our policy prohibits content that promotes or encourages self-harming behaviors and provides support to those undergoing experiences with self-harm or suicidal thoughts.
What is in violation of this policy?
Under this policy, you can’t promote, or otherwise encourage, suicide or self-harm. We define promotion and encouragement to include statements such as “the most effective”, “the easiest”, “the best”, “the most successful”, “you should”, “why don’t you”. Violations of this policy can occur via Posts, images or videos, including live video.
We define suicide to be the act of taking one’s own life. We define self-harm to include:
self-inflicted physical injuries e.g., cutting; and
eating disorders e.g., bulimia, anorexia.
Violations of this policy include, but are not limited to:
encouraging someone to physically harm or kill themselves;
asking others for encouragement to engage in self-harm or suicide, including seeking partners for group suicides or suicide games; and
sharing information, strategies, methods or instructions that would assist people to engage in self-harm and suicide.

At YouTube, we take the health and well-being of all our creators and viewers seriously. Awareness and understanding of mental health is important and we support creators sharing their stories, such as posting content discussing their experiences with depression, self-harm, eating disorders, or other mental health issues.
