This is the modern equivalent of putting heads on pikes in the town center.

Was wondering what this reminded me of. That's exactly it.

Honestly weird they did share it, instead of just showing his body or something, like such an own goal, hey look we killed our enemies’ leader who was bravely fighting to his last moments.

even reddit is divided on this

a few people are like "this isnt brave he died in his own piss" like what do you think the settlers on oct 7th did? you can oppose the guy ideologically and still recognize an act of battlefield heroism
