Capitalism could never offer you multiple lines AND direction. This is objectively better than what we have now.

Spicy nuggs have always been #1 never eat their beef products though Wendy’s has always been a chicken place to me.

Same thing with guns. Big boom is bad ass suck off me

They are doing that because America is losing power and influence, but that’s an inevitability regardless of Russias decision to engage in the SMO or not. Basically those people were going to be fascists one way or another.

Maybe there were other options, maybe there wasn’t I don’t know but if someone more knowledgeable knows something I’m all ears. Ultimately whatever ended up happening was going to change the course of their life forever and in the end they chose to end their life in service to the Palestinian people speaking about the injustice they face. It makes no sense to lambast them for it just because it might be in vain.

Nothing will come of this.

The choices were go to prison and shut up or kill Palestinians. Shitting on the dead because their suicide is not going to be the spark that saves the Palestinians is kinda fucked. If you don’t agree then that’s fine, but I’m disengaging at this point. Hope you get over yourself at some point and realize people do things based on what they think is right and not if you personally agree with them or not. Go be mad at someone else.

Well that might be your opinion, but it clearly wasn’t theirs. They were being asked to do something that directly went against their moral code and they didn’t think being silenced was a good compromise so they took their dying breath speaking for the Palestinian people as someone who was being asked to help kill them. Think whatever you want about it, but it was their choice and we should show some respect to it either way considering the circumstances. If it starts up some copycats then maybe your opinion will have weight behind it, but until then it just looks like you’re shitting on someone who was put in a tough position and decided they’d rather die than being complicit in imperial genocide or be silenced through military justice.

Take that back

The context for this one is right though? Not all self immolations are worthwhile endeavors, but this one has the chance to maybe do some good is what I’m getting from this conversation. The guy was faced with an impossible choice because he was being forced to go assist the Israelis from what I understand. And since he was part of some kind of intelligence unit in the Air Force he would have been complicit in acquiring the targeting data for Israeli bombers had he gone. I don’t know what happens if you just tell the government you don’t want to go, I would assume some kind of court marshal or something. So instead of being silenced in some kind of military prison he decided to take his own life in support of the people he was ordered to kill. Will it change anything? I have no idea this is the most coverage I’ve ever seen of a self immolation in my lifetime, but it doesn’t really seem like the other person is saying everyone should emulate the act or anything.

I will concede that there are many more fruitless self immolations that didn't make this list, however.

But they didn’t.

Yes but it makes more sense when you realize nato is inherently an aggressive and offensive force. You want lightweight and disposable AT because your doctrine is defined by mobility and the reliance on air dominance on the assault. This is in contrast to Russia who mostly relies on multi use anti tank weapons because their doctrine is primarily more defensive based.

all youre doing is encouraging vulnerable people to kill themselves

That’s a little out of hand I think.
