Hamas praised the act and expressed "heartfelt condolences" to the friends and family of Bushnell, announcing in a statement to Telegram that "he immortalised his name as a defender of human values and the oppression of the suffering Palestinian people because of the American administration and its unjust policies" while describing him as a "heroic pilot."

Tragic, he traded his life and his allegiance for some posthumous praise by Hamas. 3rd degree burns are not a good way to go.

He traded his life to protest genocide of a people by their colonizers.

Don’t worry, someday your body will fight off the brainworms and you will see we were the bad guys all along.

Sorry but I'm really tired of seeing the image of the man on fire everytime i open my lemmy app or reddit etc. PLEASE start tagging it as nsfw. I really really really don't want to see the footage in any way.

My bad. I submitted this through the app and can't find any NSFW option.

It's the new normal that the ruling class want.

Do you imagine everyone in charge as moustache-twirling cartoon villains?

I mean, they do seem to be working towards that goal, yeah

Is "go ahead, burn yourself" the new "let them eat cake"?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 8 months ago

I think so.

A police officer approached the scene, aimed a gun at Bushnell off-camera and ordered him to "get on the ground" multiple times

The fuck is wrong with you America?
