I hadn't really caught the start of Fox's infamy, never heard of him as an actor, only after he'd progressed to being a full time free-speech weirdo on Twitter.

“I sincerely hope others join me. RT. #BoycottSainsburys.“
He's a proper tool.

I have no idea who Burzum are but just had a look and it must be intentional. If not it’s a blatant ripoff
Black Metal/Ambient solo project. The guy is a convicted murderer and well-documented racist and antisemite.
I remember when we pointed and laughed at racists, now they own social media companies, make records and run countries.
