This is hard to watch, especially the ending.
Man, that sucks. RIP.
Firstly, fuck Reddit, and their ilk.
Secondly, suicide is always a personal choice, and it always strikes me as a bit weird blaming it on others...but that also changes dramatically when the person in question has some sort of underlying mental condition, such as autism in this case.
Autists aren't devoid of agency, or anything, but they're also much more vulnerable to this sort of thing, since they're not always as good at separating things, or as good at social/human interactions. Demons on the internet will affect an autist more than it might affect others.
And, that's really sad. "Every animal here just lost their best friend." Ow.
The whole thing is just...yeah. Like I said, hard to watch.
I hope the people who engaged in this know what they helped create, and can hopefully fix themselves.
Rest in Peace.
Autists are famously vulnerable to transgender propaganda. Transitioning is another kind of suicide, more or less.
