A man set himself on fire at the Israeli embassy in DC. Earlier reports did not include this:
“The individual, wearing fatigues, introduces himself as “an active duty member of the U.S. Air Force and I will no longer be complicit in genocide.””
And he continues yelling “Free Palestine.” @palestine
@Sherifazuhur @palestine The media will use him to ‘prove’ palestine activists are ‘dangerous and mentally ill’. His actions were stupid and not helpful to palestinian causes. I suspect he’d already been under psych observation and this could be a ‘psych med ramp-up’ incident.
@heretical_i @Sherifazuhur @palestine
I disagree. It’s an *American soldier* engulfing himself on fire. This is serious and potentially very helpful.
@rad I stand by what I said for the reason stated. This is considered aberrant behavior in US society and AUTOMATICALLY is classified as mental illness. @Sherifazuhur @palestine
@Sherifazuhur @heretical_i @rad Your perspective is valid for internal US discourse. But not here.
@8petros Is there a problem with me repping for that pov, whoeverthefuckyouare? I was clear about that, and given your 'fuck…" thingie I figure you for a troll. So get back to me promptly as to whether I’m wrong in regard to the cohort I speak of. Kapische?
Ps. 10 or so self-immolations since the 50s, afaict by a quicksearch on ‘poland self immolation’, is NOT Socially normal. @Sherifazuhur @palestine @rad

I think you might be using the German, ‘kapische’ (or maybe Serbian?) in place of the English version, ‘capisce’ from Italian. Since you are ostensibly spelling German in an English sentence the grammar nazi spelling and wellness check is required.
