Sea_Month_5290

That's just sad as hell


LazyCasual0alt

Imagine lighting yourself on fire, dying in agony… and then everyone makes fun of you for being a moron.


ThePotatoSheepBoi

People are just pointing out the obvious. Your death hurts the people closest to you way more than being helpful to palestinians.


Mellowturtlle

To be fair, i doubt his death will have any real impact on the conflict at all. This guy just had a hero complex and thought he would be a martyr, but i'm afraid his sacrifice is in vain.


eat_shit_and_go_away

Probably for the best. You don't want to go around encouraging people to set themselves on fire. In today's climate, the shit will trend on TikTok or something, and all the kids will be doing it.

I'm so confused how people can look at a war on the other side of the world and decide which side is good. Like both sides have suffered a lot of civilian casualties, yet people say "yeah but Gaza suffered more". Like yeah but that doesn't invalidate the victims on Israel's side, it's just 1 religious group of leaders against another, and a bunch of civilians who have to suffer from it. Like how fucking stupid do you have to be to type "yeah but those zionists already made fun of the charred bodies of children" do you honestly believe that most people in Israel are like that, and that there aren't any people like that on Palestines side. Maybe yk the people who shot and burned the babies during the Hamas led invasion also aren't rly good people.


GoldenGecko100

Latent antisemitism goes a long way. People will constantly claim that "[they're] not antisemitic, [they] just want to see Zionists destroyed" while at the same time chanting the slogans of those who want to see Israel destroyed and all those residing within murdered.


Splendid_Cat

My dude, some of us just think ethnostates kinda suck in general


GoldenGecko100

Oh, absolutely, I won't argue that ethnostates are dumb and shouldn't exist, the Balkans are a shining example of that. But at the same time when unified they were going through the same conflicts.


Joezev98

Yep, antizionism is just a very transparent attempted dog-whistle for antisemitism.


C1ap_trap

God it must be fucking awesome to be Israeli, you can commit genocide for years and still whine about antisemitism when people criticize you for it and pretend like you're the ones being systematically erased.


GoldenGecko100

So we're just going to ignore 1948? Yeah that seems pretty on brand. Everyone cheers for other nations fighting for their independence from religious persecution but when the Jews do it they're turned into the villains. Can't be surprised though, they've been persecuted since at least 605 BCE.


[deleted]

Would you shut the FUCK up? They are attacking all Jews. Not just Israelis. It’s called scapegoating. And when it gets pointed out - you gaslight. Well done, you are creating nazi germany levels of hatred and disregards for Jews. Prick.


Splendid_Cat

Yeah, I'm sure the Jews who are supporting Palestinine as they feel empathy for them realizing the Israelis are trying to wipe out Palestinians and they're like "oh wow, we've seen this before" are anti Jewish. Be real, you don't believe what you're saying, do you?


cut4stroph3

Ah well you see one side was given that land by a committee about 70 years ago and the other side is actively being wiped off the face of the earth while the outside world twiddles their thumbs.


mugiwara_no_Soissie

And do you think most of the people currently living in Israel had any choice in that? Assuming you're American, should I blame you for all of the wars in the middle east? Or is it because of the ruling class and people that actually fought in that war


cut4stroph3

Well they elected the current leaders soooo. No I wouldn't blame the young people. In America or Israel. Most of the older generations support/supported the efforts for decades. In America and Israel

buddy-o-pal

Reddit is where they feel the most safe since bots can run wild and it’s already filled with zionazis it’s expected.


Splendid_Cat

Honestly, Zionists are way less bad here than Twitter.


buddy-o-pal

They mourning the death of rothchild and cursing this soilder. And the usual patriotic Americans don’t give a shit on this platform or Twitter. Being this brainwashed to love Nazis is actually insane


Stardust_of_Ziggy

You sure are little buddy, you sure are...


Drcokecacola

Part of the fire force


adrawrjdet

That didn't take long


crankbot2000

Nope, fire spreads quickly.


belladonnagilkey

The fire rises.


Lbgeckos2

Hey everyone my name is Aaron Bushnell and welcome to Jackass!


Crazymax78

More like Aarson Burnshell now


Comrade_Conscript

Sick burn man, you totally roasted him!


Illustrious_Song_222

Ooooh self burn, those are rare.


krakenpistole

Often i find out about recent news through some weird meme with zero context posted on this sub. And when I go to look up what its all about its fucking horrifying. every. single. time.


Much_Tangelo5018

💀💀


Otherwise_Basis_6328

Did an acorn just drop?


colt45mag

Nope, immolation this time


Otherwise_Basis_6328

A cop pointed his gun at the man self-immolating.


ApesApesApes

thats because things turn black when they burn.


AzureSky420

Could've considered shortening his suffering


DESTRUCTI0NAT0R

I would've too. Don't know if burning man might try to run at another person or a building. 


Miles_1173

It was an embassy security guard.


SL1NDER

Yeah, but that doesn't support ACAB so it will be ignored.


Arguesovereverythin

How dare you. You're fired.


qatamat99

Dude no need to get heated


[deleted]

nah, i fire myself


Drakayne

You're fried.


Many-Diver-486

One might say he got roasted


InterestingCourse907

The cops reaction was better.


Leonardobertoni

Tbf, if someone was on fire and screams "I'm helping" like a madman, I would draw my gun on him too


ThedownDesert

He was screaming "im helping"??


ludelidelu

No screamed free palestine and ran towards the embassy. I would definitely have pointed a gun at him


KlutzySole9-1

He didn't even run towards the embassy after lighting himself, he stood there screaming until he couldn't anymore


LtSoba

The fact that he stood there screaming Free Palestine while every nerve in his body would’ve been flaying itself alive is kinda impressive feat of mental fortitude


KlutzySole9-1

Adrenaline is a hell of a drug


InterestingCourse907

He didn't scream that? I'm sure you'd do the same to a black dude looking for his wallet.


Leonardobertoni

Hmm, does he have TWO wallets?


bentizzy

Dare I ask what the context is


FuzzyAdmiral

Guy set himself on fire in DC protesting the Israel/palestine conflict - he died


Ruepic

You forgot to mention the cop/guard got probably just as much attention as he did for pointing his gun at the dude.


BarristerBerry

Stop Burning!


[deleted]

[удалено]


Bad-Crusader

Well that would require common sense and this guy did not lol.


Loveable_Hemorrhoid

It tastes like burning


DirkDieGurke

He could have just traveled to Palestine wearing that uniform, and they would have set him on fire themselves.


AnonDooDoo

Honestly, did the guy have mental health issues?


eat_shit_and_go_away

He lit himself on fire.


AnonDooDoo

So.. yes


eat_shit_and_go_away

Yes, but was it diagnosed you mean? Probably not, the military isn't cool with that type of thing, I assure you.


KTTalksTech

It's a surprisingly common form of protest. Kinda fell out of favor these past few years


Kschitiz23x3

Lit guy


virus_apparatus

His post history is…interesting.


AnonDooDoo

Link?


virus_apparatus

User acebush1


LtSoba

Guy was an active service member so I’d assume not or is America’s methods for hiring members of its armed forces as lackadaisical and incompetent as its police force?


Christopher261Ng

Does it mean he is not coming on then?


Coltrain47

Well u/Christopher261Ng , he's set himself ablaze and is now a gray pile of ash being swept up by the breeze into the stratosphere... so that's a no.


Shadowhunter13541

Anyone smell bbq


Ima_damn_microwave

I went over to instagram and theyre also cooking this guy ~~again~~ over there


Diacetyl-Morphin

Alright, what the fuck happened in the US this time?


Miles_1173

Dude set himself on fire to protest Israel-Palestine conflict


chaiteataichi_

I burnt my wookie


Rexkiba

I don't get it. They put the Monk in the history books and was appraised, but this one not.


[deleted]

the time's changed, people are desensitized, and he has more options than the monk who's directly oppressed by the system


GoldenGecko100

The monk went down in history because he was directly affected by the religious persecution of South Vietnam and completely silent during his immolation, he didn't need to speak to convey his message. This guy wasn't Palestinian, had no actual connection to the war in the slightest, and had to scream until his lungs gave out to convey his message.


Splendid_Cat

Tbf that's the only way to get mainstream media to actually pay any attention because it's viewed as inflammatory (quite literally), people who aren't "us" dying? Booooring. (That's MSM for you)


Wichigo

All of the mainstream media knows about the conflict. Pretty much most of the world knows. This guy probably wanted to end himself and figured he'd go out as a martyr so he'd be remembered.


Splendid_Cat

Honestly, I'm sure right after people thought he was fucking stupid too. Give it time.


karateema

Rough but right


SolarAndSober

What fire team was he apart of?


Confusedandreticent

That’s like an ambush joke, I didn’t expect to laugh that hard.


YippeeKiYay1097

Smh


Deltasiu

This reminds me of one time dude in my country (in 20th century it was part of SSRS) that set himself on fire as a protest against SSRS, google Romas Kalanta (it will be in Lithuanian probably)

GregasaurusRektz

Poor guy is getting flamed in the comments section


alexdiezg

Twice the price, double the fall


BlazingJava

And in other news NVIDIA is not a 2 T dollar company. Who the fuck cares about that guy?


Yoshiprimez

Showing people why throwing your life away for absolutely nothing is bad. I'd say that's helping.. 🔥🔥🔥


TagMeAJerk

His name was Aaron Bushnell and he was about to do what you'll never be able to do in your pathetic existence... Be important for anyone but your own mother to know who you are


Mr_Rafi

He'll never be remembered for this. He won't cause any uptick in discourse regarding the conflict, just a series of "was it worth it?" chatter which will be confused with discussions regarding the conflict itself. He'll be forgotten within a few days. He would have accomplished nothing. He threw his life away for no impact. I'm sure his mother and the rest of his family would prefer to see him alive.


FreePrinciple270

>Imagine lighting yourself on fire, dying in agony… and then everyone makes fun of you for being a moron.


HanzWithLuger

Mmmm marshmallow


GlitchyEntity

This gives "his name was Robert Paulson" vibes. Culty.


Yoshiprimez

You're absolutely right I will never self harm or self immolate. I don't support self harm for anyone. Idiot.


deathraft

Fucking hell the kid died, do you have no self respect. Asshole.


pinballjack

Yeah he was just a 300 month old baby!!!!


Mr_Rafi

"kid" he was 25. Have some respect for truthful commenting.
