There has always been a paradoxical nature to being suicidal. You "want" to kill yourself, and yet you still choose to live. It's the same thing with people who "attempt" suicide and fail. If you really wanted to become an hero, you would have chosen a method that is 100% lethal. Also, as saint @BlkPillPres (PBUH) said, there is no point in waiting if you are already resolved to kill yourself, or going on one last binge, because the end result is the same.
A common objection to self proclaimed "nihilists" (an often misunderstood term) is asking them why haven't they killed themselves. As it so often turns out, they haven't killed themselves because there is something in life which has value to them that they want to live for. Implicit in the fear of death is the fear of the absence of this thing which they long for. So these people are not really nihilists at all, but retarded moralists. (It should be noted that actual nihilists that have a disdain for everything in life, even the pleasures, do kill themselves a lot, and I don't have a problem with them killing themselves because they are consistent).
Suicidal people are the embodiment of these "nihilists". There is something in life that they see as having value and that they long for, but something else is preventing them from self actualizing and achieving this thing (for incels, it is a romantic relationship). The rejection of life by being suicidal is a sour grapes response to this. They are basically saying "if I can't have this thing, I will just kill myself, because life isn't worth living without it". But they seldom do kill themselves, because it doesn't solve their problem of the lack of the desired object, and as long as they are still alive they fear this lack. This fundamental antagonism is what makes it a sour grapes cope.
I will be the first to admit that I used to fall into this thought process, but I am a lot happier now that I am thinking rationally and am embracing life rather than rejecting it. For incels that use this to cope with the fact that they don't have a gf, they will have to face a difficult decision. Either try and improve your life (redpill) or give up on romantic relationships and find something else to live for (whitepill).
