He's absolutely correct about Bond. His "creator" Ian Fleming was of the old british Empire school of history and the character reflects his world view. Vicious Asians, dumb Africans etc, the whole revolting package. . .
The episode where Bond "converts" a lesbian to heterosexuality with his amazing lovemaking is straight out of the same kind of adolescent male fantasy that fuels the imaginations of gullible young men who go off to war to kill, mutilate and die in the service of the privileged chickenhawks at home.
At least Rudyard Kipling had some respect for the colonized people, plus a lot more creative and writing talent.

In pinkoland, reproduction is a terrifying possibility, and I agree.
Then you should take comfort in our willingness to abort.

Maybe, but he never boned Sophie Marceau or Grace Jones.
You can have Grace Jones. Makes me vomit just to think about it.
But who got to bone Sophie Morceau (heh)?
Commander Bond, of course.
