Of course. God forbid that a franchise that was dreamed up by a white British male featuring a white British male protagonist is allowed to cause so much angst among the snowflakes. So, let’s make her a black female, to ‘empower’ the female minority contingent, and screw the core demographic who made James Bond, James Bond. It’s gonna bomb like a 500 pounder down a Dresden smokestack. Same with the new Battlestar Galactica remake (again) - Starbuck was originally a cigar-chomping, womanizing white male with a penchant for gambling. Then they made her a tough chick. Now, they say they’re casting a ‘non-binary’ black woman in the role (READ: a black dyke). Liberals steal then destroy everything they can put their grubby hands on.
