Seems pretty appropriate.

 

Sort of an art school thrift store four-piece from Brighton. I've been following their career for a few years, some really good songs in their discography.

 

English translation: "Free or Die", I wasn't able to figure out their specific city but I assume either Bandung or Jakarta.

 

The Exploited did a cover of this song on their second album, this is the original version (AFAIK)

 

Feels appropriate. Also the one undeniably punk song Weird Al has done.

Let the screenwriter and director worry about his demeanor. Casting is about the look.

Oh, I already know who's being played by Alec Baldwin.

I've already cast Jared Leto as Morbius.

Sigh. Yeah, I guess you're right. The only good match I can come up with is Timothée Chalamet and I'm not especially happy with it but it'll probably have to do.

So should I just expect that every answer is going to be an attempt at humor?

 

I've got some ideas myself but I haven't been very happy with them. It would have to be a younger actor, otherwise Michael Imperioli (who played Chris on The Sopranos) would be damn near perfect.

The biggest fear that Gen X has is that their parents might disapprove of them.

Holocaust denialism is censorship. It's an attempt to hide reality itself by controlling the narrative. If anything, outlawing holocaust denialism is anti-censorship, as it's helping ensure that Nazis won't be able to suppress the truth about what happened.

Someone claiming that outlawing holocaust denialism is censorship is trying to flip the script and overwrite reality (or just repeating someone else who is doing so, I guess). It's like saying "Hey! Stop censoring my attempt to censor others! This is censorship!" It's a mind game, an attempt at manipulation through deception. Look up the term DARVO: Deny, Accuse, Reverse Victim and Offender. That's what saying "Outlawing holocaust denialism is censorship!" is: Reversing the Victim and Offender.

Lies and misinformation and other attempts to deceive and suppress the truth are not a form of free speech. Quite the opposite, they're what results when free speech remains unprotected.
