Worth noting that one of the two writers of Six is non-binary, and it has always had a diverse cast of women and non-binary people of various races and body types, the wives’ characters and songs being inspired by various singers such as Beyoncé, Rihanna and Nicki Minaj. The programme lists their pronouns

So whilst this is not a big deal, it *especially* should not be a big deal in that context.

It is not like Six has suddenly Gone Woke, having always been Woke As Fuck.

AND YET:

Article from Pink News:

Trans actress and TikTok
influencer Dylan Mulvaney has
been cast in Broadway's Six the
Musical. The 29-year-old will
star as Anne Boleyn, the second
wife of King Henry VIII.
However, the announcement sparked a
significant backlash, largely from right-
wing and gender-critical accounts on
X.com, with many people calling the
casting decision "woke", and others saying
that the role of Anne Boleyn should have
gone to someone assigned female at birth.
Following the backlash, Six the musical's X
(Twitter) account was made private. The
account is currently locked to non-
followers.

(She’s playing Anne Boleyn in Six. My kid and wife saw Six in London last year and loved it.)

You cannot debate these cunts. They will gnash and wail and claim victimhood over your very existence.

Cut them off, push them away, delete X, live a life without caring what those bastards think.

And note, once again, that the TERFS and the fascists are walking in lockstep. #transphobia
