Setting Yourself on Fire for Political Reasons Is Now Acceptable

The Overton window moves another inch

If you think you hate Mondays, pity the poor guy who has to scrub the pavement outside the Trump trial where that lunatic set himself on fire.

Because when you reward a behavior, you get more of it.

It’s been two months since that other nut burned himself to death, and I had to look up what I wrote about it at the time to even remember his name. Aaron Bushnell. Doesn’t really ring a bell, but okay.

That moron turned himself into a charcoal briquette in front of the Israeli embassy because he didn’t like to see Jews standing up for themselves. It was an act of antisemitism, whether his defenders want to admit it or not.

Some antisemites carry tiki torches. Others become torches.
