There is the possibility the man could be protesting the Jews' Gaza genocide as protests have flared up nationwide—still no official report on
why the man decided to light himself on fire.
By Tyler Durden: Update (1710ET): 37-year-old Max Azzarello has been identified as the man who set himself on fire near the NYC courthouse where Donald Trump's 'hush money' trial is taking place. He is in critical condition in a burn unit, police said Friday.
Before setting himself on fire, Azzarello dropped a stack of pamphlets that led people to the "Ponzi Papers" substack - in which he writes: "My name is Max Azzarello, and I am an investigative researcher who has set himself on fire outside of the Trump trial in Manhattan."
Azzarello [who was photographed with Bill Clinton] claims that a totalitarian conspiracy is in play, orchestrated by the U.S. government and its allies, aiming to impose a fascist world order.
This extreme act of protest is to draw attention to an urgent and important discovery:
We are victims of a totalitarian con, and our own government (along with many of their allies) is about to hit us with an apocalyptic fascist world coup.
These claims sound like fantastical conspiracy theory, but they are not. They are proof of conspiracy. If you investigate this mountain of research, you will prove them too. If you learn a great deal about Ponzi schemes, you will discover that our life is a lie. If you follow this story and the links below, you will discover the rotten truth of ‘post-truth America’. You will learn the scariest and stupidest story in world history. And you will realize that we are all in a desperate state of emergency that requires your action.
To my friends and family, witnesses and first responders, I deeply apologize for inflicting this pain upon you. But I assure you it is a drop in the bucket compared to what our government intends to inflict.
Because these words are true, this is an act of revolution. -The Ponzi Papers
Azzarello's manifesto focuses on the financial sector - particularly around recent banking crises and the role of cryptocurrencies. He suggests that the Silicon Valley Bank run, which was linked to Peter Thiel's actions and the subsequent collapse of Silvergate Bank, was no accident but part of a broader scheme involving cryptocurrencies as a global Ponzi scheme. He claims that cryptocurrencies were designed to destabilize the economy, implicating major corporations and elites in facilitating this financial upheaval. This scheme, he argues, has contributed to global inflation and is poised to cause even greater economic disruption.
He then expands to politics, alleging that that U.S. government has devolved into a 'secret kleptocracy,' pointing to bipartisan manipulation. According to Azzarello, the government perpetuates division and crisis to maintain control and distract from its exploitative operations. This, he asserts, leads inevitably towards a fascist state unless urgently addressed.
Lastly, he suggests that pop culture such as The Simpsons was designed to normalize dysfunction and distract from critical issues - and that the media is used by the elites in order to manipulate public perception and maintain the status quo that suppresses collective action against systemic injustices.
His solution? A revolution (and, of course, setting himself on fire):
Azzarello was reportedly active in the Anarcho-Communist forum on Reddit,
He also took a photograph with former President Bill Clinton.I've scraped Max Azzarello's Reddit history.

He goes on in his Substack about Harvard and The Simpsons, saying Harvard is one of the largest organized crime fronts in history, and that the writers for The Simpsons went there.

A disturbing video has surfaced on X showing a man setting himself on fire outside the courthouse in Midtown Manhattan where former President Trump's trial is taking place.
CNN is reporting:
The man walked into the park across the street from the courthouse, throwing flyers into the air, a senior law enforcement official told CNN. He then pulled something out of a backpack — it was not immediately clear what the item was — and lit himself on fire, the official said.
The media outlet continued:
Investigators are now fanning out to collect the flyers the unknown man threw into the air, another senior law enforcement official. A CNN team on the ground observed one of the flyers. It said "NYU is a mob front" and had various allegations of wrongdoings against the school.
The video is shocking.
Why did a CNN reporter oddly declare that there was an active shooter?
On X, Elon Musk asked: "Was he protesting against the trial or for it?"
"It seems like Trump Derangement Syndrome is getting out of control," X account Planet Of Memes said.

There is the possibility the man could be protesting the Israel-Hamas war as protests have flared up nationwide—still no official report on why the man decided to light himself on fire.
