I thought this kind of crazy was confined to Republicans here in the States, but apparently it’s as contagious as the latest COVID variant:
A British member of Parliament claimed this week that men are being forced into committing crimes because fictional male characters like James Bond and Doctor Who are being replaced by women.
During prepared remarks on Thursday, Tory MP Nick Fletcher made the assertion that “men need to have their own identity.”
“Everywhere, not least during the cultural sphere, there seems to be a call from a tiny yet very vocal minority that every male character or good role model must have a female replacement,” he complained. “One only needs to look at the discussions surrounding the next James Bond.”
“And it’s not just James Bond,” the MP continued. “In recent years, we have seen Doctor Who, Ghostbusters, Luke Skywalker, the Equalizer all replaced by women.”
Fletcher went on to insist that most male role models are now villains.
This sort of crazy started here, but it’s spreading to the Mother Country!!! Who knows where it will go next! Back in the olden days, when I was just a lad, sickness of this sort only spread by personal contact. It was the nature of contagion back then. Now it apparently spreads via Facebook and Twitter. You have to hand it to Fletcher. Lauren Boebert and Marjorie Taylor Greene have nothing on him. Stay tuned to see if the infection spreads to the rest of the Tories, as it has spread to all the Republicans. My sources tell me that developing a vaccine for this affliction will make the development of the COVID vaccine look like a piece of cake.
