The uncensored video is here as well: https://theworldwatch.com/videos/1616102/shock-us-air-force-airman-sets-himself-on-fire-to-protest-israeli-palestine-war/
The comments on the video are actually more horrifying than the video itself. How can a human watch another human suffer like this and be happy/laugh about it? They're wishing that others would do the same just because they think differently from them? Do we even have any hope left in humanity anymore?
Holy shit you weren't kidding. Those comments are horrifying.
Those are the people making America great again!
There are many people that consider themselves left-wing that excuse their government support of genocide. I have no idea how...
Unfortunately no 😔
there's a video
I try not to let myself get affected by crazy anonymous comments on the internet. I definitely avoid thinking that they're any kind of majority. I figure that those comments come from a minority of people who are either really messed up, have an ulterior motive, or whatever variety of atypical motivation. If nothing else, it's better for my mental health to think this way.
I'm gonna need to do it your way for sure. Sounds much healthier
No. No, we dont.
He cares for innocent people that are getting killed in this war. You don't need love for compassion, just basic human decency.
By being a sane human being for instance. Try empathy.
I wish Israel was actually killing those terrorists you're speaking of. More than 60% of those are children. They haven't killed that many Hamas members. This is ethnic cleansing. It's a genocide. I don't know why the mod removed this comment. Let people speak their minds so we know who's an actual human being and who isn't.
That comments section is such a dumpster fire of what I hope are bots and not actual human beings... Because damn, otherwise, Giant Meteor 2024
Ugh, I hadn't even noticed the comments until you mentioned it. I avoid the comments sections on most "news" sites because they're almost universally dumpster fires if they're not properly moderated.
Edit: although Giant Meteor 2024 definitely sounds like a winning ticket.
I too support the initiatives of Giant Meteor, Comet and Asteroid LLC, and wish them a strikingly good year.
They are angry sounding. I wish there was giant meteor.
