It's based on a manga so they're giving her manga eyes...
But they're just doing it for one character?
Makes it look even more odd.
Also is it so hard to find Asian actors when casting for films like this?

I have very dim memories of reading the original manga
and this looks nothing like those memories. Have they turned it into a teen lurve story or what?

Make sure you shut down discussion by branding him racist and then ignoring anything he says.
This is why brexit happened.
Sounds like he voted brexit because he wanted "less forins taking our jobs and using public services". Smugly calling him racist then shutting him down, instead of accepting he is uncomfortable with change and people different to him leads us to where we are now.

You've totally missed the point
You could say that the NHS is such a gigantic employer that the only way to get sufficient qualified staff is to recruit overseas. That these people are every bit as capable of doing the job as "British" people. You could provide stats showing this.
Or you could apply a handy label that absolves you of responsibility to actually fucking challenge his bullshit opinion.

Because the reason racists think that brown people are inferior is that they think they’re no good at their jobs.

I imagine he doesn't like being the minority which is fair enough when you've come to expect your world to be a certain way.
The DM etc are despicable in fanning the flames with BS that implies incorrectly immigrants aren't overall positive to this country.
However shouting "you're RACIST (and i most certainly am not, I'm terribly liberal don't cha know, i even bought a big issue once) LA-LA-LA-LA" and sticking your fingers in you're ears doesn't help.
We all have to live on this island, including those you don't agree with. People who think those of different colours are inherently inferior are idiots but their vote on brexit/GE counts exactly the same as yours. You understand they think you are just as wrong as you think they are?

I'd listen to them. Why do they have these feelings?
You'd have to see where they get their information. Some of this will be heavily biased eg the DM. The guardian is also biased. Being able to spot the difference between facts and opinion would be a useful skill.
It would be a good start if both politicians and the media had to tell the truth and be held to account for lying.
But what is 'the truth'? Everything is relative. If the majority of humans are racist does that mean actually you are wrong not them? We can only have an opinion based on our experiences and learning up to this point as individuals. They will have had different experiences to you, or interpreted events differently to you.
Are humans programmed to be racist because it is safer to trust sometime in your tribe or family than strangers?
You seem fairly dogmatic in thinking these people are racists and that's all they'll ever be and they are bad and stupid.
Again: your vote counts just the same as theirs and they think they are just as right as you do.

No, where we are now comes from ignorance of the facts, and petty little-Englandism.
He was right to be shut down, as the whole 'forrins take our jobs and public services' argument is a total fallacy, not borne out by any kind of analysis or study. As a matter of fact, it's used as a convenient handle for the 'I'm not racist, but' brigade to validate their thinly-veiled xenophobia - trotted out by rags like the Fail and the Torygraph to appease their hateful swivel-eyed readership. It's poisonous propaganda lapped up by the ignoranti who are unwilling or unable to fact-check.
That's why he was called racist, that's why he was shut down.

So he shouldn't be allowed to say anything ever?
Perhaps ask why he feels like that?
Perhaps he feels they're taking all the jobs, using the nhs more than their fair share, not speaking English, having different customs, causing more crime, getting council houses sooner than British people.
..... which if you just read the Hateful Mail and believe that terrible rag you'd think you had every right to not like them. You'd probably wonder why pinkos like you could possibly think any different.

and use the DM to justify their position. I think everyone is a little bit racist or has the potential to be so to a greater or less degree. Put them in different environments and you'll get it expressed accordingly. But i don't think they are 'bad people' and nothing can be done.

He was allowed to say it. He didn't get jailed for those views.
You seem to be suggesting that freedom of speech means you cannot be criticised for anything you say. I also have the freedom to tell you that your view is basically unacceptable in civilised society.
Perhaps he does feel those things you say, but he didn't articulate those things and simply STARTED his complaint with the colour of their skin. If you ARE racist, I suggest you creep your racism into your argument gradually, rather than sledgehammering it into someone's face in almost the first sentence. Because it's only human nature to not wish to listen further to unsubstantiated bollocks when one hears it.
You're complaining that he was shut down... well, he had the opportunity to not be shut down by speaking a balanced nuanced opinion, based on facts and figures, which (and this is crucial) someone else actually wanted to hear. Instead he complained about all the brown people from the European union, which was not only very racist but also obviously factually incorrect.
Freedom of speech does NOT guarantee a captive audience of more intelligent, better educated people than you being forced to listen to your utterly heinous bullshit.

Quotation marks aren't for your interpretation of someone's statement
"This isn't how they work either".
I said people weren't listened to or engaged with in an effective way to change their mind. And branding people racists and saying they shouldn't be listened to is no way to go forward as a society.
From their perspective their ideas aren't irrational. It is a little arrogant to say someone's ideas are irrational.

But evidently not in an unappealing enough way.
The leave campaign was effective by playing on people's prejudices and offering a wonderful alternative (and lies). Stay just had 'it'll be worse if we're out'. Which if you're having a shit time at the moment you want a change.
It would be interesting to know how the vote would have gone if done before any campaigns.
That you describe the experts as "patiently explaining it all" is exactly the problem, talking down to leavers as if they are children.

Some brilliant stuff in there...
Three Swings on a Pendulum is really interesting.
It pisses me off that the Beeb doesn't make its entire archive of this stuff available online.

The producers of Star Trek: Discovery tried this.
Threw in a couple of sweary words, interspecies sex/rape scenes and upped the gore levels. It didn't work. The whole thing came off feeling awkward and forced. The charm of Star Trek is that it's relatively family friendly and has wide appeal (to geeks). The kind of folk that don't already watch Star Trek won't start just because it has violence and sweary words unless they're unbearably shallow/thick. And the addition of violence/sweary words will do absolutely nothing for the existing fans.
Now, a David Fincher Star Trek... That would be exciting.

I quite liked Discovery.
Well, bits of it anyway. There were some great moments, and some fucking dire ones.
And Lorca's light sensitivity seemed to come and go at random, while at the same time serving no apparent purpose in the plot.
And that guy who Spacey touched didn't get totally fucked up at the end which kinda seemed like a massive cop out.

It's not that I hated it, really.
It's just that it wasn't Star Trek to me. It felt far too out of character.
It's worth bearing in mind that we're only halfway through the first season, so there's still room for the story to develop, but I totally agree on the glaring plot holes regarding Lorca, Mirror Universe Stamets, etc that could have at least been developed a little further before taking a massive Winter break.
Sylvia Tilly is just massively annoying as the awkward comedy relief and is long overdue a grisly death.
I can't see it making it past Season 2, if it even gets that far.

You're right
It just didn't have the feel of Trek. I've started watching The Orville and that definitely seems more star trek than star trek.

Frankly I hope it's just a Klingon, Vulcan and Firengi sat in a room bitching for 90 minutes
Then the wrong Romulan walks in, and then it's silent tension for 15 minutes before they all shoot each other. Finally the Firengi flies off in a shuttle drunk off his fucking nut.

That honestly sounds like a mid-season episode of Babylon 5.

The acting in B5 wasn't all that bad.
It also had a plot that was thought out ahead of time. When I watched successive episodes of STD I got them impression they were both making it up as they went (like the whole business with Lt. Clem Fandango) and trying to one-up themselves from one episode to the next.

I don’t know about that
They’re running Season 1 of B5 on one of the minor Freeview channels at the moment so I’ve been refreshing my memory. The acting standards, especially of the bit-part characters, makes Neighbours look like an RSC production of Hamlet.

I liked Discovery, after expecting it to be a Warp 10 Clusterfuck.
Aside from the STRONG LANGUAGE AND MODERATE SEX REFERENCES...
It's quite traditional Trek. But competently done. Which is good, considering there hasn't been any good telly Trek for nearly 20 years.

Julian Assange was up on trumped up charges probably but...
Technically he is not in illegal detention, he has chosen that route. He can probably argue his way out of anything but Douglas Murray has a fair point, Wikileaks damaged dilpomatic work between countries by releasing documents which drove wedges between countries and organisations because he could and not because by doing so it would help. If he believed that this was the right thing to do then he doesn't understand diplomacy.
