    By comparison with a world in which the major superpower can’t muster a candidate who opposes genocide? Yeah, the world is way sicker than this guy was.

      I’m not nor was I comparing it to anything. If you self immolate, that’s a very strong indicator you’re not mentally well. Again, I agree with their cause but it’s really weird to imply they were mentally healthy when they decided to light themselves on fire and die horrifically

        What does sanity even mean in an insane world?

          Wow, that’s some deep thought, there, R D Laing. What if we’re the crazy ones?

          People close to me have schizophrenia. It’s as much a disease as cancer is. If you don’t believe that, you’ve never experienced it up close, or you have an inability to learn from direct experience.

            Same. I don’t use their illness as an excuse to ignore atrocities.

            For knowing that genocide is madness.
