‘Doctor Who’ Mocked for Asking Alien Character Its Pronouns: ‘What a Load of Woke Sh*t!’

Breitbart

The long-running BBC sci-fi series Doctor Who is facing widespread mockery for embracing woke gender nonconformity, with a recent episode featuring the title character asking an alien life form to declare its pronouns.

The episode also featured a scene in which the title character (played by a returning David Tennant) is referred to as “male-presenting.”

Doctor Who  — which is also available for streaming on Disney+ — dedicated three recent episodes to its 60th anniversary. In the episode that aired Saturday, an alien life form named The Meep (voiced by Miriam Margolyes) provokes a discussion about gender pronouns.

“Yes, The Meep, I promised I can help him to get home,” the Doctor says at one point.

“You’re assuming ‘he’ as a pronoun?” Rose Noble, the Doctor’s “non-binary” sidekick, asks.

“True. Yes, sorry, good point,” the Doctor replies. “Are you he, she, or they?” more

  1. Dr. Who went uberwoke in 2005, with the “Torchwood” spinoff. Fortunately, regular Dr. Who viewers were only subjected to a few transition episodes.

    The BBC has been dedicating itself to guiding/grooming socio-cultural norms, since the post-war hardcore-socialist era of British politics, forming one of the many sacred cows of socialism, like the national health system and council housing.

  2. To be honest, we watched that episode and really enjoyed it overall. Were there a couple of “woke” moments? Yes, but they were blink and you miss them. Seriously. There was also at least one moment that was so very unwoke that I actually thought, what was that again? So I kind of lean towards thinking people are making a bigger deal out of stuff than was actually in the show – on both sides.

    But again that kind of falls in the all or nothing mentality that we live with nowadays. You either have to be for something or against it. Completely and totally. Sometimes I just want to watch something we like and just enjoy it for what it is. And we did. What else can I say? Well, except that I’ve been avoiding reviews unless it’s reactors that I trust to not go overboard either way because I knew this “reaction” was coming. How could it not?

  3. I just spent time in the UK last month. There wasn’t an ounce of masculinity to be seen on television or anywhere else for that matter. Well, a couple of my friends who I knew back then were still pretty normal blokes.

  4. I’m a decades-long WHO fan, but I stopped watching years back when they decided to regenerate The Doctor as a woman. They already HAD several women Time Lords and there was no need to transform WHO into a female. The Brits have lost their fucking minds! :^#
