     Also the part where, unlike Sean Connery, Craig never said:

     “I don’t think there is anything particularly wrong in hitting a woman, though I don’t recommend you do it in the same way you hit a man. You don’t do it with a clenched fist. You do it with an open hand"

     and when asked about 20+ years later doubled down

     “I haven’t changed my opinion. Not at all ... I don’t think it’s that bad. It depends entirely on the circumstances and if it merits it.”

     @br00t4c I love that (some of) society has evolved to the point that we can recognize Daniel Craig is WAY cooler – even in a tough, Bondian, "masculine" way – than Sean Connery was, precisely because he's woke.

     @kims @br00t4c Okay, yes, that too. (Though it's actually the same thing, right?)
