In reply to the discussion: Man Dies After Setting Himself On Fire Outside Trump Trial [View all]hadEnuf
(3,617 posts)9. This man needed help.
But instead he got Fox news, Hannity, Alex Jones, Trump and the rest of the right-wing terrorist propaganda mongers.
But I'm sure they are that disappointed that he didn't go into the courthouse shooting and instead took it out on himself.

Definitely the later, having skimmed his manifesto. Extreme altered mental status tragedy.

Yes, that's what I read. He lumps TSF and Biden together and thinks the whole system is a cabal to control the world.

I see. His manifesto lumped Biden and TSF together, saying they are in cahoots to control our lives and the world.

He thought that was how they were moving and hiding all the money. The world is a giant ponzi scheme, according to him.

Yes, the Darwin award in action. Too bad he couldn't take a lot of MAGAT politicians with him.

He was upset about privatization of industry, the destruction of society's safety net, and military spending.

Who do you think has set the political climate to the insanity that it is today? Who has brought wild conspiracy theory

Hopefully he finds peace in the afterlife because he didn't have it in this one.

Sad for the loss of life. But a very painful way to go. Depending on the severity of the burns, death was merciful.

Tragic. Sounds like the mis-information silos were internalized. So truly sad.
