Doctor Who last 2 seasons lowest ratings of all time and a list deal with Disney and yet RTD stays on. BBC really double down and this shit eh?
Given that this show was made before season 2 aired, how could that be relevant?
Luv 2 barge into threads with barely-related rants…
Facepalm.
He’s very obviously being cheeky…
Homo Aqua?!? How can they be Homo anything? They’re not even fucking mammals!
They’re related to the Silurians, aka homo reptilia, so I would suggest that ship sailed quite some time ago.
I have no problem with them existing but I wouldn’t let my daughter marry one that’s for sure
This is just RTD being RTD, and I should ignore it. But it sent me on a wikipedia rabbit hole,
If we’re being pendantic that wouldn’t be “racist”, it would be “speciesist”,as race in biology refers to subspecies differences, not species-level, which is what the aqua/sapiens distinction means.
Also, if we’re being inclusive implying that homo aqua are not “sapient”, i.e. intelligent, seems about as insulting as calling them devils.
Totally unrelated, but I learned that from the latin genus name, you can refer to the chimpanzee tribe as “Panini”, which is fun.
