Morals and ethics are different, feeling bad is not the same as being bad. Morally maybe you should feel bad about exploting a loophole if it means that loophole may be closed thus effecting others who actually needed it, ethically your statement holds up.

I have been suicidal and also I would like to be immortal too so I think I can answer this one,

Just because you are suicidal doesn't mean you also dont strive to live. Suicidal thoughts are intrusive thoughts. They are often unwanted. The act of taking your life is a way out, an escape from the stressors of now. Being imortal means you could encase yourself in concreate or you know, something less crazy like waiting for cryogenic freezing and then going to sleep until theres a better world.

When you are suicidal you know there is no heaven waiting for you. Best case scenario its an off switch. Dreaming is the closest you can get to heaven in this world. You tend to cherish your dreams. If you had no need to eat or drink and didnt age you could sleep forever uninterrupted.

I think its going to anti appeal to a lot of people purely because of the name. I am by no means a trump suporter but I refuse to watch anything deliberately provocative. It just adds to the growing resentment of each other when we should be allies against the rich.

There is no need for us to 'get people talking' in this day and age. People are already talking, we just arent communicating. More and more black people are getting the take away that its individual white people and not a multi tiered flawed system that steps on us all that cause systemic opression.

I think if you name your film something like that hoping to capture people's attention, you will just ultimately risk tuning them out. We already have enough media telling us white people are the bad guys, we need more that tell us how to be the good guys. Not just in relation to 'not taking up space' but in ways that benefit the whole of hummanity.

E: p.s I will probably watch it still just because I know what its about and it sounds interesting, I just think its a shame others wont because black people being alive in historically white washed times is something ive always been faccinated with since morgan freeman was in robbin hood.

that loophole may be closed thus effecting others who actually needed it,

Depends if you care about that, hence morals not ethics.
