This is a false dichotomy, you can fear both death and pain. In this case the quote starts with the premise that you’re dying anyway. A much more interesting question is 100% death by machine gun VS 80% chance of death by stabbing. Would you risk the 20% chance of survival in the face of massive pain and perhaps being crippled? Or would you just take the fast death?

I’d like to think I’d take my chances with living. In which case the fear of death > fear of suffering (with high chance of death)

Separately: dying for a “good cause” is a highly subjective opinion. I wouldn’t do it, except maybe out of pure love for a family member, in that 1/1000000000 hypothetical of taking a bullet. Doesn’t really happen in practice that you get to trade your life for another, they’ll just be shot already by the time you react
