I go to Temple and enjoy soda. I also like dinosaurs and Batman. I promise, I am not a child.

  You know, James Bond ain’t never been blonde either, in fact, he very specifically had jet-black hair, but they didn’t even bother to dye Daniel Craig’s hair for the role.

  But you guys can’t wrap your heads around the mere possibility of Idris Elba playing James Bond, just because he’s black? How the hell do you guys expect me to believe racism is not involved? It’s Idris Elba, the man is 75% British and 25% tailored suit. Pretty sure his legal middle name is “Badass.” I’m not 100% convinced he is not James Bond in real life, in deep cover as an actor named Idris Elba. 

  What the hell is wrong with you if you have a problem with this?

  • James Bond
  • Idris Elba
  • Guess who's really hoping these rumors are true
  • Why is the physical appearance of characters unimportant unless you want to make them black
  • I've never understood that
  • ''Oh this person has black hair but they're going to be blonde instead''
  • is fine with these motherfuckers
  • but ''this person has light skin but instead they're going to have dark skin''
  • is some kind of personal affront to them
  • there is no institutional oppression against white folks
  • which is why it's not okay to whitewash but is okay to racebend
  • a black James Bond needs to happen
  • a non-white Doctor Who would be a good idea as well
  • and if you don't think so then I have bad news
  • you are a big ole racist
