If you actually tried to criticize my concern instead of twisting my words and mocking them, there wouldn't be an issue here, but it appears as though you just don't give a strawberry float either way.
Moggy wrote:You concern reads like a GB News rant about the dangers of "woke". You've given zero examples of the gender politics that you are concerned might make Bond look bad. Just vague nonsense about an external agenda. What does that even mean?
Fair enough that I didn't give any examples, although unfortunately you still decided the best response wasn't to inquire further so as to try to better understand my point of view, but to simply mock it. I've read a few articles leading up to the films release that have given me cause to
suspect that Cory Fukunaga (the film's director) has a greater interest in criticising the character rather than highlighting his strengths. A film is not the place to be hanging iconic characters out to dry.

Reading back I can tell that you didn't twist my words or implied that I condone rape, so I apologise for that. However you did jump the gun and could've been more receptive to what I actually meant.
