A man attempted self-immolation in front of the White House in Washington, D.C., on Saturday, sustaining superficial burns to his arms. According to reports, bystanders quickly poured water on him to extinguish the flames before police arrived. The man, whose identity has not been released, was taken away from the scene. The motive behind his actions remains unclear.

Videos from the scene showed the man, wearing a pink t-shirt, screaming in pain as police surrounded him. The incident reportedly took place when hundreds of pro-Palestine protesters were marching in the area. Unconfirmed reports suggest that the man identified himself as a journalist.

It's narcissism. It's weird to say that when someone sets themselves on fire but it makes perfect sense once you think about it.

What's a method of suicide that's guaranteed to take more than a few seconds and attract a lot of attention...... right?

Swallowing a bunch of pills on your bed? Eating a shotgun in the seat of your car? Or setting a fire in front of a major secure Government building.

If you eat a gun on a livestream, the footage can be used to harass a christian roblox streamer, thus immortalizing you.

It took less than a second for a bullet to go through R. Budd Dwyer's brain. No one would've known who he was unless they were looking for a list of Pennsylvania State Treasurers, and a resignation would've been a blip outside of PA.

Instead, newspapers across the nation ran what happened as front page news and nearly forty years after his death people still talk about it. Of course, the thing about his death was that the cameras were already trained on him and the reporters were getting a story either way.

So I was wrong about one thing, the famous guy who did it was in Vietnam and lit himself on fire to protest how the south Vietnamese government (who was run by Catholics) were persecuting Buddhists. It was a whole scene where after he died other Buddhists put him in a coffin, but surprisingly he didn't scream.

Yeah that entire anti Buddhist crackdown was 100% justified by the Prime Minister they were literally forming military units that he had to put down with the Vietnamese army Prime Minister dim was stabbed in the back by a bunch of CIA agents who were concerned about what the communists infiltrated media thought

I wanted to hear him screaming in pain, what is this?

FYI cheap copies of the Quran make great brown material for compost. I buy one from Amazon every fall to keep down the fruit flies from the shitty late-season tomatoes and strawberries rotting in the pile. I fed the compost pile At-Tariq this evening before sundown, rather fitting given its translation.

I personally wouldn't eat vegetables grown on mulched evil.

The durka durkas would want to torch some 'gay for Gaza' so this all works out very neatly, I think.

Figure nature can purify it. I'm also using it primarily for some opium poppy cultivars and other haram intoxicants as an added fuck you to The Prophet. Just picked up a 660-page paperback hadith collection to cover me for brown materials until spring. Amazon helpfully sends it in a carboard box which is just spectacular.

Also - the Quran is breaking down great, most suras are decomposing at a rapid pace within a few days. The nature and earth spirits and related beings must hate that thing even more than I do.

I fed my personal Dar al-Harb the suras "Repentance" and "The Battlements" this evening. Helps to keep down the fruit flies from the tomatoes and coffee grounds, too.

but if you look up self-immolation a majority of the people who do it are from the Buddhist area or like Tibet and they're protesting those sorts of things. also there's a good number of Israelis who have lit themselves on fire ( I know I know) they've done it to protest civil issues, particularly involving the IDF and PTSD.

so I guess it's another thing at the Palestinians have stolen lmao

There's a good interview with the photographer which details how the media were alerted beforehand that there was going to be either an immolation or a disembowelment and includes a series of pictures taken from before the monk set himself on fire until after he's dead (don't click through if you're squeamish - the iconic photo is one of the less gruesome). It was more than an act of protest by a single monk. Other monks actively assisted and prevented anyone from intervening.

How would CCP handle it if Buddhists in China did self-immolation today?

Having read his manifesto posted here, I feel sad for him. And for all of us. This guy spent years specializing into a profession that is no longer what it used to be decades ago. He woke up and realized he is one of the baddies, and it broke him. Nothing he wrote about seems off to me. It's all true and that's what makes it sad. He should have done literally anything else to fix any of the issues he outlined in his manifesto. Setting his hands on fire will accomplish nothing at all. He would have had a bigger impact if he volunteered to drive people to the polls, worked for an organization trying to revert global warming, or wrote columns about the issues he cares about. I guess he hoped this action will bring attention to his writing, but I don't think it will. The world is too cynical and people would rather laugh at him. He asks the reader what he will do, and I think the answer is, sadly, nothing.

You and I read that manifesto very differently, because to me it was full of standard shitlib faux-progressivism upset that the media gave the people he hates even the limited airtime they currently get.

How stupid do you have to be to fuck this up? There’s a lot of news writeups on the Vietnamese monk who famously did this. A lot on the American who successfully did it about a year ago, too. Like how do you even fuck this up? In his pink fucking tshirt.
