#made simm master just soo uncomfortable to watch

[eightdoctor]

yeah actually. with how he treated martha & her family (and just the entire rewrite of human nature as a whole, tbh). i have to say i am quite afraid of how rtd is going to handle writing dw with ncuti cast as the doctor. idk. maybe he’s gotten better in the last ten years but i can’t really forget the fact he made the master like. enslave martha’s whole family for a year. so i’m frankly expecting it to be either insensitive at best or egregiously racist at worst. bbc hire 30 sensitivity readers to watch his every move please

#or just. you know. hire a black writer #like in the same way moffats earlier seasons are associated with sexism to me. rtd’s era is associated with racism #not even subtly either #martha spent at least 3 episodes of season 3 as a servant #made simm master just soo uncomfortable to watch #had 10 like beg him to regenerate. disapproved of a black woman punching a racist #had her travel in 3 very racist time periods without like. any sensitivity whatsoever #(saying ‘just act like you own the place’ in response to martha’s very valid worries about racism in the shakespeare code) #i don’t knowwwwww guys i don’t know he better not pull anything fishy this time ! #doctor who #// #racism #ask to tag
