Chinese Self-Immolation
A netizen posted a message on the X platform saying that on October 10, a man in his forties or fifties set himself on fire at Suning Plaza in Lianyungang City, Jiangsu Province . The reason was said to be a problem with unpaid wages. The video circulating online shows a man pouring gasoline around his body and setting himself on fire . The man is instantly engulfed in flames and struggles in agony as he lies in the fire. Netizens say the incident spread on social media. However, the news was quickly blocked by the police, and some netizens who filmed the video were threatened or even violently treated by the police. In another video, a man wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt is seen sitting in the center of the square with his head down and back bent, seemingly being violently beaten. According to informed netizens, the incident occurred around 7 p.m. on October 10 at Suning Plaza in Haizhou District, Lianyungang City, Jiangsu Province . The self-immolation may have been caused by a problem with unpaid wages. |

Re: Chinese Self-Immolation
So....because they didn't pay him his wages, he set himself on fire and died a slow, excruciating death. And the people that didn't pay him were like "oh....okay....." and went on with their day. Now, whats all this about reporters on the beat? |
