Friday afternoon, internet activist Max Azzarello self-immolated as an act of protest outside former-President Donald Trump's trial. He remains in critical condition.
Headlines and news stories branded Azzarello, a Florida man who set himself ablaze in front of a New York City court house, a "conspiracy theorist" who suffered from mental health issues. He had been arrested in his home state three times for erratic public behavior such as throwing a wine glass at an autographed photo of Bill Clinton, according to the New York Post.
