A perpetually underreported and understudied statistic
In addition, since COVID-19, suicide reports have taken a backseat and have become even less of a concern for most surveyors to gather data on, even though we are nearing the start of 2025, about 5 years since the last time
the suicide database has been updated. This is not including the fact that some countries still do not feel the need to necessarily report such figures, or even provide accurate measurements of such figures. After all,
the dead can't protest how their departure be documented. Nonetheless, let us try to make sense of the present data that is available, largely on male suicide rates.
Suicide rates disproportionately affect men, as opposed to women.
Sadly, most major organisations that discuss suicide typically maintain it as a 'nebulous' event that occurs due to external and/or uncontrollable factors. Some even go as far as to make the same
'dedicated' pages to female victims of suicide, as opposed to that of men. Ironically, the disparity typically shown in suicide between the 2 sexes can largely be attributed to this general form of misandry,
as well as various policies that are an extension of said prejudice.
alongside birth rates
We went ahead and decided to examine all the countries that fell within the top 10 countries in terms of crude suicide rates, and annotated an additional 3rd parameter - birth rates, as the point sizes alongside to see how they might differ across the different infamous countries and time.
2 original datasets
Combination of data from helldiverstrainingmanual and helldivers dev api.
Data is pinged from these 2 at 2minute intervals.
wrt birth rates
We decided to only plot the countries that had amongst the top 10 suicide rates per year.
There are interesting relationships that can be visualised almost as if there are separate 'segments'. For instance, notice the apparent disappearance of the correlation between birth rates and suicide rates for areas
with much higher birth rates.
Note of course that there are bound to be other variables that are involved in explaining the presence or absense of these correlations.
Why not include female suicide rate?
Aside from wanting to provide a much more respectful coverage of suicide compared to conventional think-thanks, female suicide is insignificant compared to that of men, and becomes an obstacle to meaingful analysis of suicide prevalence between countries and on the dominant social dynamics that lead to suicide.
Dark blue vs red
If female suicides were compared to male suicides on a list of crude rates, 2019 would reproduce the following hierarchy showcasing their importance relative to that of men. The highest suicide rate for women would rank 18th out of all the record, but this is a very special case since Lesotho has a major suicide crisis that dwarfs all suicide rate recorded in history going back to the 1960s! The next highest suicide rate for women, ranks at 51st globally.
Even for comparison, the highest suicide rate for women in the world is dwarfed 4 times by the highest suicide rate for men in the world in the year 2019.
Dark blue vs red
Similarly in 2000 (the start of the world bank's record of suicide crude rate) would reproduce the following hierarchy showcasing their importance relative to that of men. The highest suicide rate for women would rank 63rd out of all the record.
Even for comparison, the highest suicide rate for women in the world is dwarfed 5.5 times by the highest suicide rate for men in the world in the year 2000.
Suicide: an index to measure inequality
Aside numerous other discrepancies, suicide is one of the long standing and more visceral demonstrations of misandry in modernized/westernized countries in particular.
The heatmap below represents the equality of suicide between men and women, with darker colours representing being closer to equality, and lighter colours representing moving further away from equality in terms of
suicide. The y axis represents time, with time moving forward the lower we go/read.
Top 10 closest to equality over time
Aside numerous other discrepancies, suicide is one of the long standing and more visceral demonstrations of misandry in modernized/westernized countries in particular.
Interestingly, the inequality between the sexes in terms of suicide has been increasing, and below you should see the extent to which that is happening in the countries with top 10 closest to achieve equality in suicide rates between the sexes,
moving further and further away from obtaining the 1:1 female to male suicide ratio.
Suicide: The silver bullet in social sciences
There are a surprising number of countries with high suicide counts outside of the conventionally quoted Asian countries like South Korea and Japan. Historically, Russia had some of the highest reported suicide rates globally prior to the 2000s, driven in part by economic instability, widespread alcohol abuse, and a lack of mental health infrastructure following the collapse of the Soviet Union. However, suicide rates in Russia have declined significantly since then, thanks to targeted public health campaigns, increased access to mental health services, and efforts to reduce alcohol consumption. In contrast, Lesotho, a small landlocked country in Southern Africa, now exhibits one of the highest suicide rates globally. This alarming trend in Lesotho has been attributed to factors like widespread poverty, high HIV/AIDS prevalence, and limited mental health resources, although it would
be pertinent to identify why it is so uniquely high, breaking most historical records of suicide!
Commentary aside, approximately 32.9% of the countries analyzed have experienced an increase in suicide rates between 2000 and 2019. This includes countries like the USA, where suicide rates have risen sharply, partly due to the opioid crisis, economic stress, and a decline in social cohesion. Similarly, South Korea continues to grapple with high suicide rates, exacerbated by work-related stress, academic pressure, and a stigma surrounding mental health. However, some of the largest increases have been observed in less commonly discussed regions, such as Lesotho, where socio-economic challenges and a lack of mental health interventions contribute to unprecedented rises in suicide rates.
The equality regarding suicide rates between genders has also decreased over time. In the early 2000s, a few countries displayed near-parity in suicide rates between men and women, with levels of equality reaching close to 100% in 1 or 2 nations. This likely reflects both cultural attitudes towards suicide and differences in reporting accuracy. By 2019, however, the closest observed equality has dropped to around 78% in just 2 countries, underscoring a widening gap. Globally, men are more likely to die by suicide, often attributed to societal expectations, higher use of lethal methods, and lower likelihood of receiving any help or recognition compared to women.
This is characteristic and expected of a society maintained by misandrist institutions and dominated by the 'empathetic' gender', whether it was the White Feather movement that helped to spur one of the worst wars in history,
WW l, or the banning of male only spaces, alongside the maintenance and propagation of misandrist female only spaces (further clearly demonstrated by the alignment of all political fronts' admonishment of trans-women's
ability to use women's spaces since they don't see them as women but just men - the slave caste) or
the protest of male-help talks such as ones that talk about male suicide/mental health or the insistence of suicide requiring special 'segments' that only talk about women and girls committing suicide.
Misandry is a drug borne out of cowardice in the human population, and it is fundamental to understanding most of the attitudes and institutions that have their roots in our civilisations. Whether it was the 1800s or the 2000s, misandry has been the primary
sentiment of society, including of women.
Suicide is one of the only hard-to-corrupt statistics to measure that disparity between the genders, almost the opposite of the statistic 'attempted suicide'. This is further exemplified by how bare it lays dissidents' misandry
when they try to rationalize and invent reasons why men are still the privileged class despite these numbers, and how they have no shame in even giving women, exclusive attention for issues that are clearly disproportionately
affecting men - almost as if men's victimhood were something to be colonized and stolen from them, by women, as with most other issues.
