It's because the other side of the world is getting genocided because of America. Like I said, self-immolation happened in the past in times where the US has committed massacres like the Vietnam War. Massacres and genocides are probably the worst thing you can ever do as a nation, so it isn't hard for me to understand how an extreme protestor makes this decision. This is also a country that regularly mass shoots each other so setting yourself on fire is less of a violent act than lots of Americans regularly do. I mean, the first thing the cop did was point a gun at a burning person.
