Well, given where it's posted, I'd argue that it is a bit of a dick move to kill yourself in a way that hurts others.
I'm obviously for saving people from suicide if possible, but if someone is forsaken by capitalism, has no one that can help them, and does commit suicide, there are nicer ways to do it than throwing yourself in front of a vehicle (train, car, whatever) and scarring someone else for life.
The act of suicide though, is not a dick move, but rather a failure of society to take care of everyone.
