The short answer is no, not based on what he did.
Pathologizing resistance and protesting in all its forms, including the selfless act of self-immolation in order to communicate an urgent message to save countless innocent lives is a colonial imperialist tool.
Fight any attempt to pathologize Aaron or any activist. They delegitimize Palestinian liberation when they paint us as “mentally ill” as if freedom and liberation are mental diseases!
Rest in peace Aaron.

FOR THE NEW FANS OF IWTV JOINING US FROM NETFLIX, PLEASE KEEP THIS IN MIND:
-
This is an adaptation. This is Rolin Jones’s interpretation of IWTV. Some things are from the genius of Rolin, other things are direct parallels to the source material.
Nothing is black & white. The show is complex in its entirety.
A reoccurring theme is “Memory is a Monster”. Contradictions, delusions, lack of recollection, and discrepancies in each character are applicable. It is solely up to you, the viewer, the consumer, to determine who/what is reliable and who/what is not.
Another reoccurring theme is “Evil is a Point of View”, a direct quote from the 1st book.
S1 is Louis’s point of view. S2 is Louis’s point of view, with other pov’s included.
THE ENTIRE PREMISE OF THE CHRONICLES IS AS FOLLOWS: Humanity vs. Vampirism, Good vs. Evil. MEANING — 2 things can be true at the same time. We humans have our way of life just as vampires have their way of life. What we deem as good vs. evil is based on our nature. What vampires deem as good vs. evil is based on their nature.
Most importantly — IT IS OKAY TO ROOT FOR A VILLAIN. EVERY CHARACTER IS FLAWED. IT IS OKAY TO LOVE A CHARACTER AND HATE THEIR ACTIONS AT THE SAME TIME!

There is no right or wrong answer. It is all subjective. Everything is based on perception so contrasting opinions are inevitable. That is literally the point. But let us not forget that at the end of the day, this IS still in fact fiction.

The metaverse is dying, reblog to make it die faster
MAYBE I AM
i’m running with nowhere to go
i’m crying with the lights on
constant searching for
something that’s only found in you
i want to reach out for more
swords hanging like my lightbulbs
sitting thinking
wondering if you feel the same too
and if you do
just know we’re mute
for not doing anything
when we know, how we feel too
and if you do
think us through
just know i saw all of this coming too
Elon Musk's N*zi Salute at the Trump Inauguration Rally. The US government will attempt to censor this or shift your perception of it.
You Saw, What You Saw.
