I mean, it is Disney, and for kids/family… So kinda sorta make sense? (No, it doesn’t really)

Ha ha - I thought that was a dodgy knock off of Frozen until I actually looked properly.

That website is just awful now, only exists for clickbait.

Look at this for example, the suggested article after reading that:

Seems to suggest Rogue is the worst rated, when actually it was #20.

I’m sorry but the whole site just seems like some awful “not my Doctor” haters who should stop watching if they dislike it so much.

The show has always been progressive and I am proud that they are carrying on being progressive even though a certain segment of old fans hate it. That’s what progress means.

This used to be their favourite NuWho Doctor I’m sure:

In this political climate you have to be on the right side or you’re on the wrong side. All these people saying “oh I wish people would just not mention difficult subjects” are on the WRONG side of history.

Also.

Sorry but I’m just getting very annoyed by this.

The comments that Ncuti made are that a certain subset of people will be angered that the TARDIS team are all non-white.

Are we entertaining the idea that anyone angered by there not being a white person in the TARDIS is in any way reasonable?

Is it “antagonistic” to be anti-racist?

I think it’s normal to be anti-racist. It’s right to be. Anyone who isn’t ant-racist can turn the telly off and give their head a wobble. They certainly haven’t been paying attention to Doctor Who for the past 62 years.

it’s still worth acknowledging that when the actor playing the Doctor seems to embrace a more antagonistic tone, it can feel at odds with the spirit of the character.

The character who once sucker punched a dude for being racist towards his companion btw.

There’s too much hate in the DW fandom nowadays, all the folk ranting about Doctor Who going woke seemingly forget that it’s always been woke

Have they forgotten who created the show? Have they forgotten 3 literally discussing a characters pronouns?

They seem to be hating for hating’s sake

Yeah that feels a bit… microaggression-y. Although i’m not even sure it’s “micro” at that point.

The person who wrote the article gives me paradox of tolerance vibes, their desire to create a positive, “good vibes” fandom inherently opens it up to more bigotry.

Exactly. “We don’t talk about these things enough” well why can’t you make an article theorising? What’s stopping you? Oh that’s right, hate. This is what the tabloids do, they incite and stoke and fuel the fire of hate, and he’s leaning into it.

Fandom too antagonistic? Clearly they need to spend more time on popular Doctor Who forum TARDIS Guide (on second thought, maybe not :laughing:)
