The guy was crazy for appearing in the documentary without a mask in the first place.
Did he really think the empire trying to subjugate his people was going to protect him once he outlived his usefulness?
Maybe the empire that invaded his country should have done more to protect him once he outlived their usefulness.
Why would you expect such an empire to help him once he was of no further use?
Like if they wanted to help people like him, they wouldn't be there in the first place, let alone funding the very worst warlords, protecting the drug trade, locking people up in blacksites and torturing them, protecting Blackwater and others from prosecution for their crimes, etc.
You have to be really, really fucking evil for people to support the Taliban over you.
I expect everyone to get the people who help them into a safe place. Sadly, my expectations are usually not realized.
Did the film makers advised him to wear a mask and did he actively decide not to?
Otherwise, I tend to blame the film makers still, at least partly.
I'm gonna go ahead and blame the person that actually killed him.
Do you blame a scorpion for stinging someone who picks it up?
A scorpion is not a dogshit human being who makes conscious decisions to kill other human beings.
The point is that it has predictable behavior.
You can look at every military action the US has taken since WWII to see the same behavior.
I am not excusing the US's behavior, I'm just saying it's wild that he could look at Bagram and the black sites or the weddings, hospitals, and ambulances the Americans bombed, and not see the only difference between him and the other victims is that he is currently useful.
