Extreme Act of Political Protest
Sometimes, when the cause is just, but not heard loudly enough, individuals may make the ultimate sacrifice to win the propaganda wars. These attention grabbing actions, with no nexus to terrorism, are meant to motivate, shame, and awaken the sleeping masses to the cause. Examples include:
- setting oneself on fire in strategic locations (or other self-abortive acts)
- getting run over to stop fossil fuels
- permanently gluing body parts to structures or art
- hunger strikes and self-starvation in protest of the meat industry
- facing down protestors with signs or chants supporting the oppressor
- committing political suicide by opposing the Ministry of Truth
