weak bait for so many people to take and regardless or more importantly: an old discussion that doesn't really need repeating. ...having people auto-collapsed and on glow lists is often revealing.

That's not very INCLUSIVE you racist-bigot-homophobe! You must be so weak without our strength from DIVERSITY. Less-qualified people who aren't white make us stronger.

Daniel Craig isn't a bad James Bond, and the newer movies aren't bad or anything, but after GoldenEye, the franchise ended. Anyone still tuning in isn't a true fan.

Also for blackwashing in current films...
Mary Poppins returns. Black solicitor in depression era England who starts as a baddy, ends up being the goodie. Total horseshit. Blacks would have been lucky to shine shoes back then.
Mary Queen of Scots. Features a black Lord and an Asian lady of the Court. Director called it colourblind casting. Not revisionist history which it actually was.
Winnie the pooh live action flick from 2018. Black actors throughout.
And one of the worst, Darkest hour where a black recites poetry on the underground to persuade Churchill to go to war.
Fuck blackwashing.

What about the most hilarious injection of niggers? Beauty and the beast remake.
Good fucking lord.

Didn't watch it. Emma Watson is unwatchable. Now I have another reason to fuck it off.

Meet a girl off of tinder. She posted a picture of a cat looking for adoption (on insta). The picture of the cat had a bio saying something like "I hate when hollywood erases a character's race" or some dumb bullshit. I call her out specifically stating Idris Elba and double 007. She says no I only hate it when they whitewash characters stating something called "erasure". I asked her for an example from the last 5 years. She had nothing. Told her shes a racist cunt. Blocked. Deleted.
Not really an important story. The scary part is she is a teacher who teaches the 7th grade. The redeeming part is she also complained about the kids and how they mean they are to her... HA dumb cow
Edit: btw this is an old article, turns out Daniel Craig is currently filming the next bond movie

Good stuff. My classsmates and I bullied our middle school teachers.
We had a scooter bound teacher and one of my friends unplugged his printer everyday just to fuck with him. He thought it was me but I did not get in any trouble.

Whitewashing? Every thing is blackwashed.....What in the hell these days gets whitewashed??
Also, if james fucking bond becomes black, it will just be an other huge flag that this really is clown world.. There is NO WAY they just chose a nigger for james bond just because they think he would be the best role.......the decision would be 100% that they are just trying to push their agenda..

Exactly!

As someone that really enjoys bond films, if he's black I won't watch it

Just watched the Joker trailer - yup, mud mixing.
It's not surprising or amusing anymore. They're shoving it down everyone's throats - they'll soon gag to death or spit it out.

Black James Bond aside, isn’t Idris Elba too old to be James Bond?
