While the Potter fandom is making excuses and still consuming stuff that goes directly into transphobic causes.
The Who fandom has booted every single transphobe we can find from our community.
While we still have issues I often talk about. This is a bit much.

She's a musician. Musicians communicate with non verbal cues on stage all the time during a set.
...and he pulled her centre stage and verbally introduced him by name.
He couldn't have made it clearer imo.
@hyp3rviolet
@14YoureOver
They mentioned Mavic Chen, Logopolis and Adric and made them all retroactively super important to the Doctors life but yeah no classic who references.
@Jonatokun
@RealMimileaks
@Ztrangefolk
Yeah cos he gave her a verbal que XD.
Grabbing someone, saying their name and throwing them centre stage is a much clearer cue than most pro musicians use.
(I'm speaking as someone who's done maybe 1000 live shows here.)

The tories passed the Public order act of 2023 which allows the government to lock up protestors they disagree with.
If you're okay with keeping that party in power you dont get to whine about "compelled speech."

@Goldrushcomic
It's not an eye.
The descriptions of the eye are talking about Saurons flag.
Sauron not having a physical form is also a movie invention.
He's just a tall ugly dude with a missing finger in the book.
Elves arent supposed to have pointed ears.
Balrogs arent supposed to have wings
Saruman is supposed to look like this.
If you watched the PJ trilogy and managed to not froth at the mouth at any of this. Maybe "the lore" isnt why you're upset about

One of the things I love about 11 is that he very much takes after the classic doctors problem solving wise.
Same with 12.
The pacifism is really more of a 10/13 thing.
Heaveb Sent isnt about overcoming grief.
12 ends the episode doing a full Valeyard turn with menacing music. Then, he executes another time lord in cold blood and kills everyone in the universe.
It's about grief overcoming you.

Does that mean the ancient Greeks being universally bisexual is also a biological reality or is only modern culture biological in origin?

@punishedmother
Okay then Joe should have no problem doing a debate with an external neutral moderator in a neutral setting with fact checkers.
Doing it on Joe's podcast where he has total control over everything that goes out isnt a fair setting for a serious debate.
@eIevenriver
Some of the defenses I've heard of this from stans
"Well, I like it so..."
"Hitler wasnt actually racist against.."
"You gotta admit its clever"
"Well what about the Capaldi era that's pretty right wing if you ask me."
@_cosmicangst
What's really weird is.
Youngest actor to play the role. (5 and 11)
Controversial, difficult doctor that had mixed reception. (6 and 12)
Initially much lighter Doctor that gets darker over time and retcons the Doctors origin. (13 and 7)
(1/2)
@locelsofitness
@1DickCoughlan
Frankie and James both came up through actual touring and hard work on the circuit. Ricky bought a top-level standup career through his TV success and skipped the hard work phase. Rick is the guest in standup. Not James or Frankie.
I'm mad uncomfortable about this tbh.
Whether it's a good movie or not. We cant just ignore what Ezra did.
I dont like the idea of propping up human monsters as role models for kids.
Will probably skip.
@Melleberg_
@brewedjuice
@Goldrushcomic
It's because the story isnt about the battles. They are treated as an afterthought in the books.
The story is about how small, "unimportant" people make more impact on the world than powerful people.
So having him show up and fight Aragorn or something would undermine that.
@kayandskittles
Also, given the Who fandom has a massive LGBT contingent making nonce comparisons is kinda shitty given how much LGBT folks already get that from the far right on a daily basis.
I doubt it's intentional but you really could've worded that better.
@_cosmicangst
co-production with an american media conglomerate meant to reach a new audience with a Dilf Doctor. (8 and 14)
RTD led reboot designed to turn the show into a cultural touchstone. (9 and 15)
@the3rdjp
The dude can't even say Doctor Who without choking up. His advice was "holf on tight" and before getting axed he said he wanted to outdo Tom Bakers record... Now he never wants to return
I think he was pushed out, and that's why he's not coming back.
@DimensionsInJen
Fascism is such an unnatural state of being, it requires CONSTANT reinforcement and stoking. The idea that Daleks are just evil because of their genetics is kinda problematic if they're meant to be nazis.
So yeah, I like the conditioning machine concept.
@Doinkadect
@sackofglitter
If regeneration completely undoes character development then why should I care?
Seriously, why should anyone get invested in any Time Lord Character?
@SpencerTracyFan
I honestly think he's the best written Doctor. The issue I think is that "bad writing" has become almost a thought-killer. When pressed usually it turns out that by "bad writing" people mean stuff like "I don't like Clara" or "why isn't the Doctor young?"
@TediaTweets
@TheMindProbe2
The line for compassion isnt active rudeness.
He reached out.
She withdrew.
It doesn't matter if you're socially awkward. You dont make that their problem.
That's why it lacks compassion. She put her needs first.
Speaking as someone who's been in her shoes...

@LilahRPGtt
Antifa only ever show up in response to fascists.
So if you're claiming the nazis only showed up in response to Antifa
That's an admission the anti trans activists are fascists.
Otherwise antifa wouldn't be there in the first place.
Ditto nazis.
My TED talk is better.
@_cosmicangst
Long term arc where the Time lords lose Gallifrey and have to adjust to life as diaspora in a universe that rightly hates them for being space colonialists?
@Sooty0909
@kayandskittles
Yeah it is and I'm not gonna defend it.
Doesnt make comparing a fandom that's very progressive and heavily LGBT to paedophiles fair or reasonable.
@KyronicOfficial
@zeglifrey
No, denying a whole group of people their humanity isnt something we can agree to disagree on.
You're either a TERF or a good person.
There is no middle ground.
@ICuzMix
@cornelia_august
George Reeves didnt have any family.
He killed himself specifically because he hated being Superman.
DC destroyed his life.
It was disrespectful to include him.
Full stop.
@DimensionsInJen
he learns the lessons that make him the doctor in his run. He starts out threatening to kill his companions if they talk back to him and kicks off the conflict with the Daleks because he's selfish.
He's a bad person in the first season. His companions change that. 1/2

@SheHulk
Bold thing to say when They/Their comment has 10 likes and yours has none.
Well done outing yourself as the sort of person this post applies to though. Weirdly impressive. Like a Dog licking its lips after eating it's own shit.
@HpCriticAll
sorry about the mess.
@Glinner
Does it ever bother you that young people only know you for this?
And because of your behaviour are very unlikely to explore your work?
Hating Trans people is gonna be your only legacy.
And you did it to yourself.
Congrats?
@StormLord96
It's about how its used.
The times I have issues with how the MCU uses humor is when they use it to undercut dramatically powerful moments.
That's not buddy cop speak, it's being afraid of being seen as cheesy/sincere.
@Thecorsairswife
feels like a mix of all the things I love about 10 with all the things I dislike about 10 replaced with things from late game 12.
Shocked at how much I love him.

Nu Who: ohh donald trumps a bit naughty isn't he?
Classic Who: an 80 minute long diss track at Thatchers entire worldview and personality.
Holy crap, a random Youtube suggestion told me about something I genuinely had never heard of in Who history. The first woman Doctor all the way back IN 1984.
@the3rdjp
What gets me is I've explained to stans how its racist. And the reaction I get is usually "you gotta admit it's a clever way to beat the master." Or "well I still like it."
Like, yeah. I know you do.
Message for fan creators: I get the 60th is round the corner but please PLEASE dont overwork your teams in a rush to meet the date.
It isnt fair on them, the fans, or the final product.
@trakennyssa
The people who work to avoid spoilers are 3% of the intended audience at most.
I dont think angling the marketing around people who dont wanna see it is a good strategy.
I wanna get to know the fan audio community better.
There's some amazing stuff out there.
Reply to this with some of your work so I can gush over it

The only Doctor who saved my life... His journey holds a really special place in my heart. The level of emotional depth and growth in his stories while at the same time paying more heartfelt tribute to the past than any other era is truly something special. Best Doctor.

We regret to announce that Doctor Who: Memory Be Green will no longer be part of the something blue audio universe.
We wish Peter the best of wishes in his new endeavors.
@DominicJGM
Ino the moment he really changes is in Last Christmas when he gets to ride Santa's sleigh and just experience joy for the first time since probably trenzalore.
12 is best.
