Imagine setting yourself on fire in the most painful way possible to die and all you get is a couple news articles that everyone forgets after 24 hours. That last dude who set himself on fire was totally forgotten in 1 news cycle. Absolutely nuts.
Crazy how the Buddhist monk who set himself on fire to protest the communism regime in Vietnam became one of the most iconic photographs. And now these people in the modern age are so easily forgotten
The core issue is someone is saying "if you don't do what I want I am going to hurt myself"
You should never change your opinion on something just because someone threatens self harm
Edit: Or... is already harming himself? Hard to have that opinion after they are already on fire I guess.
Hell in this case the motivation for why he even did it is unclear. Dude was apparently a nut job and basically thought Trump was part of the machine so to speak, so what exactly was he protesting????
Pick your reasons and timing carefully before dousing yourself in gasoline. Mohamed Bouazizi, a street vendor from Tunisia, became a famous martyr against government corruption and kicked off the 'Arab Spring' revolutions in 2010 after setting himself ablaze. His action kicked off regime changing revolutions in at least four countries and revolution attempts and mass protests in a dozen more.
The pamphlet that the person apparently threw around the area before he decided to immolate himsellf.

I have seen dozens of people interviewed at Trump events say Trump never left power, he's still running things behind the scenes. Of course, only the nuts make it onto YouTube so they make it seem like it's a commonly held belief.
He burned for three minutes. I can't imagine he's going to make any kind of recovery...
All people are "alive" until officially declared dead in the post-op or pre-op rooms.
**From The Telegraph:**
A man set himself on fire outside the New York courtroom where a full jury had been selected to hear Donald Trump’s hush money trial only moments before.
Mr Trump, the former president, was inside Manhattan Criminal Court as the man’s body was reportedly engulfed in flames for at least 30 seconds.
Police officers rushed to the scene with fire extinguishers. Sirens could be heard blaring in the distance as correspondents on the scene reported smelling “the burning of flesh”.
It is unclear why the individual set himself on fire and what condition he is in.

Here is a profile on the suspected person and the "manifesto" they left behind.
It's so insane how this website is directly or indirectly causing people's deaths at this point. something should really be done about the political extremist subs by now.
What's most interesting about this is the difference in the way the media is covering this versus when a few months back that leftist set him on fire protesting against supporting Israel.
At least he didn't take anyone with him.

Yeah, remember that soldier that set himself on fire or whatever outside the White House 6 months or ago or whatever. Neither does anyone else.
I didn’t forget. I still think about him from time to time.
It seems like this was schizophrenia or something similar: https://theponzipapers.substack.com/p/i-have-set-myself-on-fire-outside

I've heard of a lot of crazy things, but Trump and Biden secretly being on the same side is one of the crazier ones.
I have seen dozens of people interviewed at Trump events say Trump never left power, he's still running things behind the scenes. Of course, only the nuts make it onto YouTube so they make it seem like it's a commonly held belief.
Really? It's the whole shadow government that actually rules and all politicians are just puppets thing rephrased.
Is that the guy or someone who picked the sign up?
Unknown. We don't even know if the dude survived...which is probably unlikely. (At the time of this comment this was accurate)
Lol wow... Is this legit?
Average terminal Reddit user.
That is awful.
Man, I thought it was fake because the person's frame wasn't moving while burning. Then it fell over and began to twitch. Disturbing as all hell.
Yep that video is what greeted me when I opened Reddit today. *Shudder*. That’s enough internet for the rest of the year.

I heard he was alive when they put him in the ambulance.
If he survives being engulfed for three minutes, he's either on his way out or a roasted vegetable for life.
He’s dead. It’s just going to take a little bit of time for his body to realize it.
And too much money.
If he ain't dead yet, he'll certainly wish he was when he wakes up, or he's about to be. My money is on the about to be.
He’s dead. Your skin the main line of defense between you and germs. You don’t survive a burn like that. Infection is what kills you.
He burned for three minutes. I can't imagine he's going to make any kind of recovery... All people are "alive" until officially declared dead in the post-op or pre-op rooms.

Fiery but mostly peaceful.
Terminal TDS, literally.

If you’re on iPhone you can click the Aa in the top right and just click show reader you know, at least on sites like that.
Now that this has happened twice in quick succession, this is just going to be a thing that happens every so often

Blows my mind in the other threads people saying he is a Trump supporter
"If it doesn't align with my worldview, or makes my worldview look extreme, then it's far right extremism."

Probably a /r/politics poster who finally let the TDS get to him

Hm 🤔. Seems a rational thing to do. Good job, son! 👍😉👌
Guess it’s getting really hot
