MODERATORS
Excuse me, what?
It is incontrovertibly ON TOPIC to point out the fact that his dying words were FREE PALESTINE followed by a scream of DEATH AGONY because he was ON FIRE. His remarks factually did not conclude in the reported way. This is not a joke. I disagree it is crass or insensitive (Whose sensibilities am I supposed to have offended, precisely? More importantly: why the fuck should I care that their feelings are hurt by my pointing out the message he died to scream to the world?), and regardless it is factual and relevant. Go back and watch again if you don't believe me, if you have the courage.
"Crass jokes" aren't prohibited by your badly written rules even if it were a joke.
Your moderator indiscretion is what is crass here, if anything. Shame on you.
Maybe well intentioned, but your comment very much came across as making fun of him. Hard to tell through text.
Nah i'm with the mods on that one, it came off way too much like you were laughing at them.
Well, I'll be the first to admit it's very hard to tell what a person's intent is through text alone. I could have provided more context. I suppose it felt to me like it didn't need context because it was seared into my brain.
