Aaron Bushnell is a fucking role model

I wish I had half the courage it took

I don't get this, I'm sure right-wingers would wish you had the courage, too. Why would you idolize this instead of looking at it like a tragedy?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Because I am not going to disrespect a deep and meaningful selfless act like his. I'm not so disrespectful

Lol sure. I don't think it makes sense to have the same goals as a Zionist, personally. You and a Zionist both wish you were "courageous" enough to kill yourself, I don't see how that could possibly improve things.
