@eeeOkay admittedly watching his legs twitch before he collapsed on the ground was unsettling.
That being said, comparing this to those monks in Vietnam is darkly humorous, and quite a bit sad. Those Monks did it out of a love for their nation and an extreme devotion to their faith. This dude did this because he was a suicidal, deeply mentally disturbed leftist (but I repeat myself) who wanted to go out in a blaze of reddit updoots.
@Shadowman311@eee His death will literally be remembered as a joke. A true reddit moment. And for what? All of that for a country he most likely never even visited.
I wish I had better words to describe this, but it's just insane.
@professionalbigot69@LukeAlmighty@eeeThe difference was hemeyer was a working man, he knew how to build that, plus his faith propelled him forward. Buchnell was just some pencil pushing office worker with no beliefs beyond what he read on Twitter a few days ago
