Why is this relevant to this thread? No one is going to mourn this guy, and unlike, say, Khamenei, no one has even heard of him either. And it has nothing to do with anything entertainment or culture related.

C'mon, I might have thought the same thing but this thread is for everyone and people can show some sort of awareness or respect to dead people without being trolled.

Who wants to be thread-banned?

Raise your hand, or continue arguing politics in a space dedicated to remembering the dead.

Mod Note:

Expanding on the above, the history of this family of threads does not include limitations on whose deaths get mentioned. Even the passings of ruthless dictators have been posted in prior iterations .

Or, TL;DR: no gatekeeping, please.
