Just so you know, “mild” or “severe” Autism isn’t a thing.

Generally the Autistic community disapproves of the label Autism parent unless the parent is also Autistic.

It’s also lucky your kid isn’t in ABA because the Autistic community considers it to be abuse and conversion therapy, with people who go through it more likely to come out with PTSD.

Just so you know, Autism is neurotype encompassing a spectrum of many different traits that each Autistic person has a different combination and manifestation of.

The Doctor was never meant to be a special Time Lord. Just one that went rogue and wanted to explore.

I’m not saying it negates The Other, but it does seem to indicate that the idea is not considered canon and the writers of NuWho are not heading in that direction. If anything it would be Tecteun who would be the most Other like character in this scenario.

So you do think the comparison between the N-word and ‘Ok, Boomer’ has merit and is worth standing behind then.

I know what Ritalin is. It and other stimulant based ADHD medication increases frontal lobe activation in people with ADHD (which is characterised by decreased activation in the frontal areas of the brain in comparison to neurotypical people), whether they’re hyperactive, inattentive, or combined type ADHD.

Hey at least it’s better than “The Other” idea that was part of the Cartmel Master plan.

It’s probably easier to say ‘they’ rather than ‘he/she’.

What does Ritalin Master mean?

You’re actually making a rape joke? When the whole point of this is that society doesn’t take rape seriously enough?

You didn’t answer my question, but you did manage to compare the use of Ok, Boomer to the N-word.

Are you saying that saying “ok” to someone is offensive and a slur? Or is it using the name of their generation that’s offensive and a slur?

He’s played by a POC and is interacting with humans in a way in which he is treated as the human ethnicity he appears to be.
In his current incarnation, he is absolutely a POC.

I’d hope that using the colour of a person’s skin to worsen their treatment isn’t 100% The Doctor.

It’s not a good look for the Doctor to be using racism by proxy to punish a POC, which is a racist act.

I don’t think he played Sookie’s father in True Blood, I’m sure he was playing some sort of Faerie king who was Sookie’s grandfather or great grandfather.
