In a video, Nelson said he would set himself ablaze "to stop supplying Israel with the money and weapons it uses to imprison and murder innocent Palestinians" and "to pressure Israel to end the genocide in Gaza."
It’s unfortunate that you would rather attack a man for the way he opposes a genocide than move on and oppose a genocide yourself.
You can’t support him because it would support his truth that we are all culpable, and you can’t face that reality.
And yes, it is America’s fault he has genocide on his conscience and felt compelled to go to such measures, he is a victim of America’s genocide. Was Hitler just suicidal in that bunker? Or do you recognize that external actions can influence such things in that case, and just choose to remain ignorant in this one?
Would you like me to be pro-suicide.
I would like you to be a sympathetic understanding human being opposed to genocide, who even if they don’t agree with this man’s actions themselves, recognizes the context they exist in and focuses towards the true goal of opposing a genocide, rather than attacking a righteous martyr.
But that’s a tall ask for Americans in the core of the genocidal imperialist project, unfortunately.
If the way of your protests is suicide then yes I’m going to “attack” that protest. Bazillion other ways to protest that don’t involve literally killing yourself.

Btw I’m not American, hopefully you didn’t assume that. There’s life outside of the US you know, we exist
You’re trying to blame the US for some suicidal man killing himself. Idk, I’m not a fan of suicide overall.
