The Dialectical Communist (thedialecticalcommunist@spectreofcommunism.boo)'s status on Saturday, 14-Sep-2024 02:28:42 JST The Dialectical Communist Man Self-Immolates In Front of Israeli Consulate in Boston

On 9/11, Matt Nelson self-immolated in front of the Israeli consulate in Boston. He published a video describing what caused him to engage in such an extreme act of protest, citing the genocide in Palestine and other injustices in the world. He also stated that we are all “slaves to capitalism.”
Nelson is the third person to self-immolate to call attention to Palestine. Aaron Bushnell, a member of the US air force, self-immolated in February 2024 and a woman whose identity is unknown also did so in December 2023.
In the immediate aftermath of his self-immolation, local media in Boston covered the event as having occurred in front of the Four Seasons hotel. The hotel is on the same block as the Israeli consulate. Many have highlighted the media’s continuous failure to report on these acts of protest accurately.
