Giving even a modicum of power to someone who believes they're both a victim and a rightful ruler is a surefire way of creating a petty tyrant, and unfortunately that describes most "feminists".

Just like stopping the replies here from being seen.

So Kathleen Kennedy being male confirmed?

other examples would be Eva Peron, Catherine Medici, Catherine the great, Ruth bader ginsberg, Elizabeth 1 & 2. Yeah women great at letting go of power

This, but what she doesn't realize is the public can't and won't be silenced. It's clear more than just those of us here are against their bs at this point. The only way disney doesn't crash and burn is if they take the hint. It doesn't matter to the overwhelming majority of us if they do or not. I say, let them dig their own grave and lie in it. It's their funeral, not ours.

Well, by "power" they really mean "responsibility" and "accountability", so it's one of those bizarre double-sexist own goals. "Ha, dumb men, can't let go of responsibility, not like us women who can just throw it away in an instant". A general rule -- if it inconveniences women it's "power" and men are bad for having it; if it benefits women, it's "responsibility" and men are bad if they don't have it. As ever, it's all changeable based on self-centered calculations.

He also had the means to destroy the Daleks before they were even fully formed. He refused because he felt no one individual should have that power (as opposed to Davros who was more than willing to wield that kind of power).

He is not hiding his intentions. It's up to us as an audience to act accordingly, and take our money elsewhere. Anyone still willing to give the new Dr Who a chance after hearing Russell say that is complicit in his agenda.

I mean that's true for good beliefs too. Stuff like Lord of the Rings introduced to me early on that being just a humble farmer chugging beers and hitting the pipe is a perfectly valid mode of existence, that everything isn't always Palaces and Maseratis. That's just how people learn things. The difference is that stuff like Lord of the Rings takes the time to show all the pros and cons so you can make a well-informed judgment. The Shire is an idyllic chill life where you work hard, eat hard, and sleep hard with laughs in between; but it's ALSO an unchallenging backwater that could be toppled at any moment the second it gets discovered, and with nothing better to do the Hobbits become super nosy, petty, and are always on each other's ass over dumb personal drama. Rohan is a strong nation with a rich history you can be proud of, where each person has a role and a purpose, and death is not denied and hushed, but proudly proclaimed and accepted as a worthy end to your chapter. BUT Rohan is also a struggling feudal economy and regnal dictatorship who's existence was hard-fought and displaced many rival tribes and made enemies at every turn, and also it stinks of horse. There legitimate pros and cons to each place of which each viewer will have their own favorite for good reasons. Lord of the Rings never makes the point "look at how nice and quaint The Shire is--EVERYWHERE ELSE SUCKS AND IS EVIL" A good lesson on why we live a certain way will also provide its the valid and justifiable counterarguments on why other people _don't_ live this way.

One could argue that it is "normal" albeit relatively rare (until 5 minutes ago). The problem comes when you start pretending that the rate of incidence is larger than it actually is, then it becomes a way for people to create a counterculture, and the fashion trend is now spiraling out of control. It's annoying until we're talking about making permanent, physical changes; then it's appalling.

So basically Doctor Who then: Low budget project from a bunch of people who liked telling kids stories with lessons in them. Mostly done out of love for the material. Doctor Who now: Massive budget project focused on telling kids what to believe and accept. Mostly done out love for an ideology. It basically nails why Doctor Who writing has become preachy and shallow.

@@PsychoIncarnate666 oh. What a concept, I'm sure that will go over "well" for them. Thank you for the clarification.

They're called transvestites in the vernacular...

Dude I feel so bad for ftm trans men. Every trans guy I encounter is super chill and just focusing on their work regimen and trying to build up a friend group, and consistently they get shafted because of something some feminist said. God knows being a small guy with few friends is hard enough without all the drama. Whether or not they're a full "man" or "trans man" or something less valid is honestly an issue 99% of people will never need to deal with just talking to them in real life. All this drama is just internet talk self-sabotaging people who are actually pretty chill IRL. The issue is more mtf trans women running a self-fulfilling prophecy that the whole world hates them and needing everyone to know it; and even that's not actually a trans issue; that's a victim mentality personal projection issue that plenty of trans women can go 5 minutes without injecting into everything. And to be fair, I judge the hardcore redpill Andrew Tate guys just as harshly for all the same reasons; it's not their gender role that's the issue, it's that they take their gender-related resentful control and egomania, and make that their entire personality. It's like, just because a gym-bro has serious problems with women and needs to have absolute control over them, didn't mean that being shitty towards women is a _requirement_ to joining a gym. Plenty of guys just wanna be buff but don't at all connect it to taking revenge on women; just as plenty of trans people can put effort into embodying an ideal they weren't born with _without_ declaring war on anybody who disagrees with them politically.

@@samwallaceart288 Not being funny, but why don't people just stop trying to deceive others into believing they're something they're not?

" without declaring war on anybody who disagrees with them politically." If you are not trying to destroy everyone that disagrees with you, you aren't woke.

@@funkyfranx Yeah that's whack when people do it. I draw the distinction between people pushing this shit for political egomaniacal purposes vs people just wanting to do something to themselves, though.

Comeuppance

Exactly! Those Daleks, aka Wheelchair Monsters would need to be redesigned or removed from the show entirely. There's no real difference between them and Davros, by RTD's own logic.

Yup! they need to be walking about; though that might remove some of the impact... Hmm... Well, what if they carried thir guns and to show threat, they all were dressed identically apart from the leaders, and just walked in massed rows, perfectly in lock-step, marching menacingly to exterminate any enemies in their path. Imagine a whole are massed with Daleks, all in uniforms, carrying guns, marching together side-by-side, row upon row. What an imagination it would take to come up with that...

Funny how the female doctor was the most inferior.

And yet the Doctor "Time Lord Victorious" did, having been shown what a catastrophic error it would be to take and embrace the power completely... The show literally had him do that; then writes these lines...

Well said

As a kid watching Die Hard 3 and Pulp Fiction, I always really liked Samuel L.'s characters more than Travolta and Willis. And while some people say that's an example of "subconscious blackface" or whatever, the actual reason I liked him was he was always the reasonable side-man who ends up having to put out fires and panic his way into a solution because the other "cool" guy he's with did something really fucking stupid. As a middle brother of many siblings, that man was my spirit avatar growing up. Broke my heart seeing him in Marvel's Secret Invasion where the only thing the writers could think to give him was "It ain't easy being black and old" "Well at least you're a man". Like bruh, _that's Samuel L.! Give him a _*_character_*_ moment. Give him someone to yell at!_ They're so focused on his identity they don't even know who they have to work with

​@@samwallaceart288 Whenever "some people" say subconscious this or internalized that, what it really is is just a No True Scotsman fallacy. Someone brings up an example that contradicts their opinion/worldview and they fish for a reason to say that it's actually invalid. You say "Samuel L. Jackson was great in Pulp Fiction because [reasons]" and that contradicts their beliefs, so they say "That's just... Uhhhh... Subconscious blackface! Yeah, that's it! You don't REALLY mean that, you just THINK you do, because if you did then that would mean that I might be wrong (and I can't handle that so obviously I'm not)." Never mind the obvious issues with an argument that boils down to "you just THINK you think that".

Haha a purple elephant gets stuck in my head from a similar conversation from years ago that stuck with me..but anyway yes I agree with you. It's like mowing your lawn. You don't realize how many people are doing it until you mow your own and for the rest of the day you notice "hey, there's an awful lot of people mowing their yards today"

Same thing. Never put much thought into who was what colour and now I can't stop thinking about "woke" and "sjw" every time I see a black person (on a screen. I rarely see them irl). This is maddening. I didn't care about it when I was a child. Just curious, where are you from? :)

I was thinking the same thing... not even in a slanderous or facetious manner... It's definitely quite clear that this is a woman "presenting" (dressed up as) a man.. Guess I had it backwards...

I think he's having trouble articulating is his base position. He thinks that the quality of art is based on weather or not it speaks to human universal truths, not the mechanics of the writing. I actually agree with Disparu against Little Platoon on this. BUT I wouldn't use the word, "morals," since morals are a choice and "universal truths" are facts of our lives.

@@genmaicha.lapsang i dont mean small conversation im talking about how he dominated the entire episode, he took every single comment as directed to him and im like "shut up man, let other people speak". Really annoying

@@chronicles8324 I agree with that.

@@chronicles8324 we did miss out on some good commentary from Despot as a result. He’s young and bright, but hopefully he sorts himself out conversing within a group

I've gone through an entire case of water.

It’s also funny how Disparu is a muddled thinker and will make an obvious or useless point then Little Platoon will follow it up with actual clear thinking, leaving Disparu spluttering to walk back and revise himself as it goes down in flames.

Honestly making me want to stop the episode. At the half hour mark and he's cut the others off so many times (and not unintentionally SINCE HE STARTS BASICALLY SHOUTING OVER THEM TO CONTINUE) with nothing of substance to say that I wish he wasn't in this episode. Holy shit he just ruins it

What's funny is every time I hear something from a female-to- trans man, they're super chill and just minding their own business. Genuinely feel bad for them constantly being brought into shit because of something a male-to- trans woman said. As a guy I know just being a "normal guy" trying to build up muscle mass and some cred with the boys is hard enough without the drama.

Obviously yes bigot!

And how many heroes/good people in Dr. Who are there with disabilities to contrast? I don't have an answer, but I can't imagine it being 0.

I can’t wait to see how they get the entire race of Daleks out of THEIR wheelchairs.

I get your point, but it still doesn't even matter because the whole premise is bunk. A villain in a movie or TV show being disabled in some manner DOES NOT IN ANY WAY "represent all disabled people as villains", and only the most shallow, vapid, superficially minded people could think otherwise.

Really makes you think that these types seem to believe that a few wheelchair-bound villains might make everyone believe the disabled are evil, but they're fine with making white people villains in everything. One wonders what they're trying to inculcate to their audience.

For some reason Musk seems to have a ton of folks treating him like a genius. Seem to forget that, for being such a wunderkind, he's had enormous losses at Twitter, his attempt to switch it to "X" is a joke, his blue check revamp was a fiasco, and he appears to have no bright ideas on how to right that ship that has become such an anchor to him.

Soooo true. Modern Disney sucks

I’m tired of Disney’s Nostalgia pandering as well. It’s obnoxious

I'm weary of any modern reboot of any classic sci-fi because of the predictable shoehorning of "the message".

Diz-nee actually had nothing to do with this... and I would further argue that the BBC is even worse than Diz-nee, in regards to pandering and "The message"... "The House of Blouse" simply bought the rights to air Dr. Who "across the pond", so to speak... no creative control or input involved. If you want REAL Dr. Who, Pluto TV has a channel that airs all the classic seasons... for FREE!
