A sociopolitical community that not only self-immolates, but proudly embraces the self-immolaters, is ready to finish the genocidal job that Hamas started.
These are the kind of people Kurt Schlichter described in his novel, The Attack. If they are prepared to immolate themselves, they are prepared to commit mass murder. An act of human sacrifice has a radically galvanizing effect. It can shock a mob into a frenzy, and individuals into absolutist thinking. This may set off a cascade of very evil events.
