Doctor Who's Insidious Message Targets The Vulnerable 

umm.

You nailed it!

Thank God Davies has no kids....

Pdf files all around the place

Disney also hired Brian Peck but let him go after fans complained.

You couldn't do that when Teletubies or whatever that shite was called started...

You never could.

@@AKUJIVALDOI remember when I was eight, when the show first aired, thinking “babies aren’t stupid enough for this.” Even as a child it was obvious that the bar had been lowered.

Forget watching stuff like that with them…show them better quality stuff to begin with. Like Hilda. Or Bluey. Or Studio Ghibli. Or old Disney. Hey Arnold. As Told by Ginger. My Little Pony: FiM. Avatar. All written, all aesthetically pleasing, all good for media literacy skills. Just saying “cartoons are for kids” is the reason so many adults have crap taste now. Start’em early. If you think the plot or other storytelling elements are poor quality, then it’s not for your child even if it’s harmless in other areas. The only exception would be movies that everyone is currently watching. As long as it’s not wildly inappropriate that’s a great time to watch it with them and…TALK ABOUT IT AFTER. Not enough parents do that and that’s why people can’t understand nuance. Lack of media education is why we have such shallow movies and backlash whenever something intellectually challenging is made.

​@@Window4503Sorry to tell you, but later seasons of Bluey have been subverted. Disney used it as a vehicle because they knew it would more likely slip in unnoticed by the parents because they liked earlier seasons.

I found him looking for WoT reviews and have been engaged even since. Agree with you!

He didn't turn out that way.

​@jasonthewatchmansson8873 why are you here?

Nice guy too, I met him at the nerdarotic meet up last year.

@@jasonthewatchmansson8873 Always was, eh?

He’s why I stopped watching during Matt Smith’s run. Matt Smith did a fine job imo given what he was handed but Moffat’s writing was abysmal.

@@surlyunicorn9461 Same. I initially thought Matt Smith was poor, but quickly realised he was given lousy material to work with.

Sounds like the average politician, most of the notable CEOs, and activist types in general at this point tbh.

He's an elitist. He's now teaching the "little people" the right way to live.

Being arrogant and pompous isn't the same as being stupid though. Davies and Moffat know what they're doing and it's just that they are targeting an audience that simply isn't there, no matter how desperately they want to pretend that it is, that makes them look stupid. There is a logic behind the madness, even if you can argue that the logic is incredibly flawed.

He is just reinforcing his point😂

A bit like saying how bad it is to associate disability with evil and then has a person of queer culture as a villain moaning about their pronouns.

I’d dare him to make an episode like this geared more towards the “religion of peace” if I didn’t know that he’s a coward already

only christians and catholics though, he won't dare criticize those other guys

So basically Reddit. Just questioning why someone felt the need to add an anti-Christian statement where it’s irrelevant to the topic causes them to double down while claiming to have critical thinking or just ignore the callout.

It’s beyond creepy. Its demonic

It's been happening for decades 😢

Creepy and absolutely intentional

@@videogamesworld01 I think you're talking about yourself.

It should. Its the basis of every religious squabble ever.

Once they finally kill the BBC license fee, I hope that tv will get better. If the only way TV companies can make money is by getting views, they will be forced to make tv shows people actually want to watch.

Which means it’ll be signed on for 5 seasons of Propwash.

Strongly disagree, it deserves a cast and crew that care about the characters, history, lore, continuity…they need to come across the VR machine keeping someone alive playing the “I’m the Doctor” game that we’ve seen the last several years…wake them, let them become the new companion and learn who & what the Doctor really is.

@@shannondavis3686 I would love for the BBC costume and prop department to be auctioned off and all the money put back into the UK budget.

@@jimmyfrench4722 Or it’s like that episode with “the dream master” and Capaldi is just in a coma on the floor of the tardis? Also they could fix Star Trek by having the time police go back and kill Burnham’s mother, immediately restoring the timeline.

And special shout out to Jamie McCrimmin, wore a kilt the whole time and kicked some serious arse!

Which is why I wanted Capaldi to deliver his lines using kilts, but never happened

difference is 2 of these made skirt things look manly, the other did not.

I'm half Scottish. A Rwandan in a kilt is cultural appropriation and I'm going to whine to the Beeb about it worse than than the whiniest blue-haired whiner.

My Mum was Scottish and a Dr Who fan from the Hartnell era onwards. I was named after Jamie McCrimmin. She loved that there was a traditional Scotsman in the show. Surely under these new "rules" they're playing by anyone but a Scotsman in a kilt is cultural appropriation.

I can only assume at this point that iconoclasm is a mortal sin.

This is even MORE true for the internet. The amount of children who have their own smart phones is alarming

I’ve never been religious at all and I’m 29 now, but after seeing the devil in literally everything in our world I’ve started to pray to god, especially for my daughter. And am trying to shake off the way I grew up and approach ’god’ with a more mature mindset. If I have a choice between the devil and god, I know which path I’m choosing. And if it somehow helps us as a people, then I’m all for it 😂👌

Do be honest with yourself do you genuinely think they actually pray for you when they get home?

@@JohnKobaRuddyExactly. It would be different if people just offered up a prayer on the spot but anyone can say the phrase. Some people also think prayer is just sending out feelings to that person or the universe, not actually petitioning God. More like wishes than prayers.

@@JohnKobaRuddy I can't speak for everyone obviously, but when I say that I'll pray for someone, I mean it. I have a friend who is going through some very difficult times, things that I can't help her with no matter how much I'd like to. We don't live close to each other. So the best I can do is let her tell me about her troubles and pray for her to get through them.

Being as one of the first lines uttered by this travesty of the character was "I've just been snowflaked" I think it's far more likely that RTD has been inside Ncuti Gatwa!

They have no objective morality, yes they will have it both ways. The Cause is everything, the communist end justifies the hypocritical means.

But they _want it_ to be both. They're both the new norm _and_ the brave pioneers (whichever looks more fabulosa at the time).

Sadly happening with so many groups/types of activists at this point too. LGBT+, feminist, various stripes of racial activists, list goes on.

This whole woke movment is nothing but hypocrisy, how in the same breath one can say toxic masculinity is hurting women while simultaneously defending a man's right to obliterate women in the world of sports and invade their only safe spaces like bathrooms and locker rooms blows my ever loving mind lol

​@@harbl99victim and victorious at the same time, forever.

As a Christian, it's always been that way. I had a bunch of classmates once gather around me and chant "get out of our school" at me because I admitted to being Christian, and that was more than 10 years ago. The teacher when he came back in the room was suitably horrified, but nothing ever came of it. ANY OTHER RELIGION ON EARTH and it would have resulted in legal problems, expulsions, etc. Not with Christianity. Weird, huh?

@@deadworld953 there are studies that claim Christianity is the most persecuted religion on Earth today. I mentioned this some months ago on a thread and by God, regretted it after the hatred that was spewed my way! Seems the general consensus is ‘they deserve to be”.

You know why. Ones real ones a fake religion of a false prophet Mohammad. Devil does not need to spite false gods.

Because Islam is a false religion and thus the devil does not need to stop it.

Because Islam is a false religion.

Problem with faith is, it tends to keep people invested in an idea, even when there is overwhelming evidence to the contrary.

@@Alexander_Kale I wasn't arguing the positive or negative, just describing what faith involves. Anything taken to an extreme can be bad. But it depends what you have faith in, if you put your faith in something worthy, then I doubt you will have a problem with "evidence".

@@Sadovari Faith is always something worthy, that is the problem. Why would anyone put their faith in anything they consider unworthy? And of course, anyone who does not share your faith is necessarily doing it wrong. That's why vegans tend to be militant. That's why different religions tend to hate one another. That's why wars between brothers are the bloodiest and nastiest you can imagine.

​​@@Alexander_KaleA man more intelligent than me once said: "Faith needs the intellect to stay grounded, but the intellect needs faith to keep it humble." You're not wrong in your criticisms of Faith, but that does not mean it doesn't have it's place. It is difficult to find the right balance, though, like most things

@@Stormmblade I fail to see how this is reflective of reality. One aspect of intelligence is critical thinking. Faith, rather implicitely, is the believe in a thing in the absencee of evidence and sometimes in the presence of evidence to the contrary. Thus, if you apply critical thinking to your religion, it will inevitably start falling apart. On the other hand, being humble does not require religion either, because there are multiple other sources for that.

Right? I've always been told, my whole life as a Christian, to seek out answers for myself. Discover for myself the truths of the Gospel. I've never been told to follow just to follow. I think a lot of people don't understand that about religious folks. Some go with the flow sure, but maybe, JUST MAYBE, some of us believe in it BECAUSE we've studied it.

Well said!

That's because our faith is true. No faith other than ours encourages thinking. First scribes were Christians, science is based on the foundation of the intelligent design (for if it were only chaos, then there would be no rules to discover). The development that we've seen occurred under Christian culture. Now, by contrast? Science smacked against a wall and our society has regressed as well.

You know there's a book series in relation to this that always highly amuses me. Phillip Pullman's "His Dark Materials." also known as "The Golden Compass." Which is an excellent book series that COMPLETELY fails their stated mission. According to Pullman himself, what he wished to do was criticize the works of C.S. Lewis and tear down Christianity but... All his books ever do, is tearing at the power institution that is the church, not Christianity itself. While C.S. Lewis never talked about any churches in his books anyway, but only the core principles of Christianity that Pullman obviously couldn't debunk. I mean heck, even within his own book, the big anti C.S. Lewis anti-Christian book... He STILL acknowledges souls, an afterlife and even a higher being... In a very roundabout way he ends up affirming Christianity and the only thing he tears down at is the human created Church. And well... Even Jesus criticized the Church! He had a fit of rage in there because they turned a house of prayer into a den of gambling. And the big message, in the bible itself, is that the church is still run by humans, and humans are very flawed so the church can absolutely become corrupted. What can't become corrupted is the word of god spoken by Jesus. So yeah... Pullman... You acknowledged the church when turned into an institution of power can become extremely corrupt... Good job... I don't think C.S. Lewis ever disagreed with you on that... Which is why he wasn't a Christian at first, but as he consumed the true word of god and found the true meaning of it, THAT is what he put into his books that you can't debunk.

​​@@Wendeta-hq2cp literally nothing you said is true or even true if you don't think about it. What do you mean your faith encourages thinking? It's literally "Read the book, pray exactly this many times at this time, don't do x, y and z, go to church every Sunday. It's a book full of rules, no free thinking. Believing there's another god is sinful, not praying is sinful. You and the other idiot who believes In god literally said "We are Christians because we thought about it" are you assuming atheists never thought about it? You are aware of the ol' contradiction of your god literally made me, knew what I am going to do and why I think the way I think and therefore has directly forced me into a hell of his own creation? Like jesus Christ are you going to tell me I deserve pain and suffering for the rest of my existence because I like to pleasure myself? Or not talk to a man who has literally killed the earth a few times, who has created fallible beings and yet lacks the knowledge or willingness to correct us? He's a fucking idiot, would be fired at any job and divorced by any woman. He raped an innocent woman to give birth to his son, which is him, to then kill himself, of which is his own design, by people who hate his religion, the only religious that should be spread and yet we have never had him spread it more than once, who then should have forgiven the sins of our fathers, aka the fallible people he created but continues to punish people regardless. Like my brain is going to explode with the amount of crap that no self respecting person should believe but yet do. Spread your peace and love, but not in that egotistical assholes name. Science isn't based off of religion or his design, science is a way of finding something out, nothing more than a tool to find answers, not a belief or a worldview. Dunno where you got the first scribes are Christians bs from, there has been literal gods before yours that you just don't believe in. Civilisation that we occupy is barely influenced by religion other than cathedral placement, and wasn't even the beginning of society, the Romans and Greeks did it whilst believing in other gods that you would laugh at, which is exactly what I would do to you if it wasn't so sad. Society could be seen as regression, or maybe we just hit our peak? Or focus on things that aren't there to advance our society. We are currently in a golden age of wealth, health and prosperity, none of which is because of god, especially with the rising number of atheists. You'll find that a lot of poor people or those without skills love god because they need him to be real to keep their lives together, whilst the happiest of us just simply ignore him and make our lives, our only lives bette.r

Quite the contrary the Christians who live in the Middle East or North Africa don't fear oppression... they fear the Allah Hu Akbar treatment that can happen at any moment. ... But yeah seriously, anyone who claims they are fleeing Islam should not be allowed to continue being a Muslim I mean. "I am fleeing Islam, also it is my human right to keep following the Islamic fate in my new country." .... Huh? ... Something smells fishy here, I dunno.

Religion isn't inherently bad per se (maybe insofar that it conditions the mind to easier believe in unrealities and falseties), it's all in the way ppl use it. There is power in belief itself. The mind body connection that allows olympic gold medalists to just "know" they are going to win. They have all described it as some form of faith/higher belief. The placebo effect and the neuroplasticity of the brain essentially proves this. If you believe something it will create a tangible physical effect. This can be used for good or bad, freedom or control of yourself and/or others...

Let's call this what it is, *HERESY.*

It’s fine to be in the show, because trans people do actually exist. But ideally it would be statistically accurate, and trans characters would be 1% of the characters at the most. Gay characters would only be 5% at the most. Representation that is accurate to the time period and location is fine. Shoehorning modern diversity into every time and place is fucking stupid though.

It doesn’t belong anywhere except in the private lives of trans people.

I think its more the forceful push on representation. I'm all for whoever doing whatever, but don't destroy the culture around specific franchises with -"agree or you're a bigot"- overtones. Surely this just ends up hurting the reputation of those you're trying to represent and the beloved franchises in the process. I thought that umbrella academy did it well. The change didn't affect the overall story or franchise, allowing the viewer to just go with it and still have a good experience watching.

I don't think it's a case of it doesn't belong but it needs to be done by someone who doesn't unquestionably believe anyone about anything they say. I feel a more doctor who like story would be a planet where it's at its logical extreme where all residents are paired up by a system and have their gender changed to make the best offspring with the message being at the end that while some were feeling better in their new gender for some they were regretful and wanted to go back but could not anymore. Im not a writer but I feel that is a better starting point for a story that can tackle an issue about trans people in a way that isn't like a scale being weighted to guarantee one side the preference

@@glawenclattuc3127There are many - including me- who do not believe transgenderism exists. Transgenderism is based on the idea of ‘gender’ and of ‘gender identities’ which everybody is apparently born with that can’t be measured or detected and constantly give the person an expectation of which pronouns they need to hear. Gender identity was made by John Money who oversaw the raising of a castrated boy as a girl. He believed it was a six sea but both twins later killed themselves. I don’t believe there are gender identities that demand each person wears pants or skirts . There is only biological sex.

Exactly. People of faith give their own money to help others. Activist want the government to forcefully take money from people and redistribute it. They rarely ever voluntarily give their own money to help others.

Religious people far more frequently supply both funds and physical help to those in need, such as victims of crimes or natural disasters, than any other demographic. Churches will house displaced populations or those in need of temporary shelter, churches and religious neighborhoods will band together to help a neighbor or congregation member for free, these same groups regularly hold potlucks and other related events for entire communities. This rhetoric that traditional religious people don’t help others is just a bald faced, mean spirited lie. Even historically, _all charities used to be religious enterprises._ That only changed once Western governments chose to take control-and they’ve been doing a far worse job.

Reminds me of the sight that made realise this as a kid. Saw a woman pestering her teenage son for some change. He forked it over and she then took a selfie of herself mock giving it to an annoyed homeless man. I don't who that bint was but years later just thinking about her still boils my blood.

That depends doesn't it? Did you want to jump off? If yes, then you made progress in your endeavor, that is what progress is.

Or like progressing to a world where a certain type of people no longer exist. I wonder if they want that kind of progression...

It’s an empty virtue much like faith or empathy or unity. They all only matter depending on their object, not in and of themselves. Progress only matters in terms of the object it progresses toward, faith only depending on who you believe in, etc.

C.S. Lewis: "We all want progress, but if you're on the wrong road, progress means doing an about-turn and walking back to the right road; in that case, the man who turns back soonest is the most progressive."

It was the drag queen that said that, not the showrunner. Davies said plenty of other stupid things.

They live in delusional bubble, where they have affirmations of other wokies...and they think all world is like their bubble...despite scores of fails in entertainment industry.

I honestly believe the people really pushing this agenda are actually trying to provoke an opposite reaction. Their propaganda is so obvious and unpalatable that only the most servile useless losers go along with it. Virtually every productive person is completely repulsed by this stuff. I'm not saying the people doing the writing, casting, or acting don't believe in the cause. I'm saying the people funding the entire operation, the people in the highest positions of leadership don't actually believe this stuff. I honestly believe all of this is push the exact opposite agenda.

Well, that just makes no sense, everyone at their dinner parties agrees with them. The idea that more than 90% of the population wouldn't agree? Simply absurd dahling! Goldfish cannot conceive of a world beyond their fishtank.

Don't forget later that same freak sucks off a violin bow while moaning.

Their statement about faith is also parroted from other people. I don't know how many layers of irony we're at, but it's a lot.

What I'm understanding from this is more about not placing your "faith" in religion and only have faith in themselves and people they can look up to. The fact that Moffat is trying to tell children "hey kids don't believe in religion as it never does anything to help you believe in yourself and your role models" only proves to me that there's going to a mass exodus/persecution against anyone and everyone who doesn't agree with his set of ideals. Heck this is happening in the video gaming sphere already.

The dogma of the American extreme left is of a religious nature, so it's not that surprising.

@@pheonixgaming7800 It's as much about her not putting faith in her father as it is in her religion. They are literally and figuratively saying "the bad guy is your father" lol that's why his image is used by the bad guy in the show.

Regardless it's glorious watching them catch L after L and get roasted in the court of public opinion for a change. Long time coming tbh.

Faith doesn't keep you from thinking though! People have had faith that the sun will rise everyday when it sets. That hasn't changed since it was found that the world is round, we orbit around a sun and it could be day on one part of the world and night in the other. Anyone telling people with faith not to believe in is trying to sell you something.

The one thing Hyde ends up caring about is his family, people who make him feel loved. And he'll die to protect them even when he really feared death before because he had the mind of a child. Then we arrive at Dracula where he wanted a woman hellsing to be a strong independent wahmen who is the ultimate foil of Dracula cause she's so much better and smarter than him, Also Christianity dumb, also Jonathan Harker is my bride because breaking gender stereotypes... siiigh, it's all so tiresome isn't it?

@@Jackson-ub1uv No I'm more pointing out things like Bill, the entire Clara plot they're redoing next season btw and the destruction of the First Doctor

@@UncensoredScion Bill and Clara were fine, and the First Doctor wasn't "destroyed". The First Doctor was portrayed like that because he was purposefully trying to embarrass Twelve. There was nothing wrong with Bill, and Clara was _very_ good at being the Doctor's equal in terms of stubbornness, cunning, manipulation, and recklessness. We also have no confirmation that the next companion is going to be another Clara; you _do_ realise that it could just be another Donna situation, right? The Doctor has already stated that he'll be checking in on Mundy, so it's more than likely that _that_ will be how she becomes the next companion.

@@Jackson-ub1uv Yes they were And he was portrayed as a misogynist, thus destroying his legacy. I'll never get tired of saying this to stupid people Bill was only there for representation purposes she was a poor-quality Rose photocopy. THE COMPANION SHOULD NOT BE EQUAL TO THE DOCTOR AT ANY POINT THE COMPANION IS THE AUDIENCE POV AND MAKING A COMPANION EQUAL TO THE DOCTOR MAKES THAT IMPOSSIBLE. I hope that me having to allcaps that section to get across the level of stupid you are for saying that about Clara helps. We can't have a POV if a character is equal to the hero character you freaking idiot. Yes we do, last week the Priest woman was said BY MOFFAT that she was the next companion and that they're doing the Clara story again. You want to suck off Moffatt, you go right ahead and do it but don't lie. You make yourself look less like a hore and more like a blind idiot when doing that when you lie.

Relying on it solely can be problematic, but using algorithms is not inherently bad.

The point is having the Dr be sceptical of religious faith makes sense, but having him target it childishly and having a completely different view a moment later is bizarre. I am a religious person but I take no exception to the fact that people disagree with me (As long as they don't try to actively hurt me financially or physically). The idea that you can decide what you believe based on your experiences and influences should be just basic. I have found some people who absolutely think I am completely wrong, religiously and politically but are still my allies in other areas like moral questions or on the idea of hard work or national pride. It seems so odd that there are those who have very liberal ideas in many areas do not want to be along side those who do not have all the same values but do in some areas. Indeed they would help engage and change minds more if they were more tolerant to those they consider in need of reform.

@@Trisjack20 I was responding more to Moffat's point about thoughts and prayers than the episode itself, but yeah there's certainly something to be criticized about replacing critical thinking with faith. The idea of capitalists preying on the faithful could be done well, in real life that's what megachurches are doing. However that's a completely different message than just "religion bad," which seems to have been the message of the episode.

Never had a problem with the Yoda scene, but my Parents would never take us to see Bambi because they didn't want to deal with the potential crying so they just skipped it everytime it was out in theaters. The good thing is my parents didn't lie about death, but they did try to limit our exposure to it if possible.

Children are taught from young that vaccines are safe and effective. They are also taught that the earth is a spinning globe that supposedly revolves around the sun.

Hope there is someone that isn't a PoS monster keeping an eye on that little girl that was in the episode. Don't want her growing up like Drew Barrymore smfh

@@AnoneemusNoename I see all child actors same way. Parents either naivé or in on it and don’t care.

Thank you for your sacrifice.

Did you forget to pin this comment?

Those who tear down religion wish to replace it with their own.

Forgot to pin this one Disparu

Sentiment is actually useless. Isn't the 'God' that made us 'in His image' evil by nature?

You're forgetting episodes like Midnight and The Beast Below where the Doctor completely lost faith in humanity. As with this Doctor, the loss in faith of humanity is and was only temporary. You're making up a non-existent difference, in my opinion.

If there are so many of you, why 1996 movie completely failed in America? It was made for American audiences just like Disney Who.

Look at episode 1 of queer as folk. Rtd is literally a child sex advocate.

I’ve been thinking about that for the last few weeks.

He cast an 18 year old Charlie Hunnam as a 15 year old in the first season of QaF because he didn't want a teenage actor's parents objecting to what he had that character do.

RTD definitely looks like one of them.

Look at episode 1 of Queer ad Folk. He is literally a child sex advocate. He portrays men having sex with boys as normal, fun, and actually wanted and beneficial by the 15 yo boy. A normal part of gay culture. rtd is a pedo like many gay rights activists of his era, including peter tatchell

Ok well these weirdos are clearly Satanic so...

I think it's more likely that people who are triggered by the phrase have no conscience and see all forms of kindness as virtue signaling or weakness.

Ok well these "people" are Satanic anyway so...

There was a debate in my country some years back with some people taking offence to "my condolences" because they said it had been overused and lost its meaning. I personally think it's a good phrase to have when you don't know what else to say but you want to express sympathy to someone in a sad situation. I understand people in the US get fed up with constant "thoughts and prayers" from politicians after something like a shooting instead of them *actually* trying to fix the issue, but surely that's more on those politicians than the phrase?

Don't know why my comment keeps getting removed. I'm not even saying anything bad. Guess you can just do whatever you want when you have a monopoly on the internet.

Ah, so that is how monk-pox jumped species...

No smell quite like grass after the rain. Certainly smells better than (glances at Nu Who), well, you know.

@harbl99 Definitely 😁 smells fresh 🌱🍃

Scientology is a proven cult and has contributed nothing to human welfare much less moral morality. Abuse is built into its system by putting all spiritual ability onto the believer. That actually does deserve contempt and mockery.

oh atheists are easy to make fun of... can't do basic math and have no understanding of science
