The new 007 is a woman and a lot of men are shaken and stirred
As always, Twitter was ready to pull the rug from under the idiots, and they did it in style.
Haters: WE DON'T WANT A BLACK MAN PLAYING 007
Them: ok here's a black woman: pic.twitter.com/ujXFuHTkNW

"I don't know if I could take a black female 007 seriously" – man before being sniped by black female 007

People who get all upset and bellendy about the genitalia of a fictional character are my absolute favourite. I want to buy them all a pint for being such complete bellends.

Omg. Shes gonna be A 007. 007 is a designation they give to agents. The movir is still a JAMES BOND film. Daniel Craig will still be the titular actor. Shes just gonna be another agent who is supposed to be as good a spy as him.

Tear down all the confederate monuments and replace them with black lesbian James Bonds playing soccer and busting ghosts.

YOU CAN DO THESE TWO THINGS
1. Recognize the James Bond franchise is one rooted in imperialism, capitalism, misogyny & all the worst of 20th century British society
2. Happily bathe in the tears of white cis dudes who are self-destructing over a black woman playing 007

Despite claiming the left are snowflakes, a lot of people on the right are getting extremely angry at the idea that Lashana Lynch could be the next 007.
‘A woman 007 is unrealistic’ but they don’t blink an eye when James Bond’s car literally turns invisible in Die Another Day…

Zendaya would make a great Captain Kirk.
