Doctor Who salt - However it regenerates. people will be mad.

[The Kebab and Calculator]

- If it's a FUCKING WHITE MALE, there will be salt from the Tumblrina crowd.
- If it's a woman, there will be salt because of that.

And whatever, there will be salty posts in this thread from Kiwitards.

I wonder if this is actually going to have an impact on the show's viewership?

Let's be honest, they'll just make all the other characters male and act like nothing is different.

Salt mining when?

In 5 pages no one has posted any yet. It's just general sperging.

im still not ready to say goodbye to peter never mind the next doctor but here is some salt

this was the first salty tweet i saw

That's not salt. You're mining smug there. Find manbabies crying that's your salt.
Sorry not all salt is mining sjws.

Here's some quick screenshots from the shitshow on the Dr. Who Facebook page.

 

[Drawets Rednaxela]

The Doctor has already been a woman, back in the 90s.

(Yeah, I know. It was a non-canon comedy special...)

Plus one of the more obscure audio books set in an alternate universe in which the Doctor commits suicide and sits out the Time War while working at Sainsbury's.

Ahem. Really, what they should do is give the doctor a male companion.

That way, /u/ can't do their thing and the fujos can't do theirs, either!

I like how many of the disappointed Doctor fans have reasonable points such as "this is an obvious gamble when the ratings are dropping dramatically" and these Social Justice Faggots just put their fingers in their ears and go "YOU'RE JUST SALTY YOU MISOGYNIST FAT SALTY NEEEERRRD"

How much do you wanna bet that their smug will turn to salt as soon as the ratings inevitably fall off due to the loss of viewership? Moffat would consider it "trimming the fat", sure, but when fat is 85% of the people who watch your irl cartoon...

Here's a sample of the salt generated over at Gallifrey Base.

You can't kill what's already dead.

If anyone follows the shows Facebook pages, the salt is absolutely incredible.

I'm seeing three main camps.

The neckbeards: REEEEE-ing about the Dr having a vagoo this time around. None of their reasons male sense, since regeneration can go basically any direction in terms of sex and ethnicity. Usually late 30s.

The younguns: REEEEE-ing about the neckbeards REEEE-ing. Most of them are pointing out that the Dr could have turned into a girl or black or purple or whatever at literally any time based on the whim of the writers. Generating salt from the neckbeard salt.

Oldfags: Salty about the show not being "real" anymore. Mostly outside the shenanigans of the previous two groups, but occasionally interject to clarify lore and stuff.

Why would you even reee about that stuff anymore. You'd have to be a complete moron not to see this coming. The thing is, tumblr always wants a female lead, but when it comes down to actually watching or reading it. It doesn't happen.

Sorry not all salt is mining sjws.

Unfortunately the smug SJW salt is more interesting than that from the crying man babies.

Speaking of GB I've heard horror stories of their community.

 

[From The Uncanny Valley]

I'm expecting lots of creepy, fetishistic comments from the Doctor about how much "better" it is to be a woman (obviously written by a self loathing man)

And when they do they whine if the female lead isn't a proud disabled PoC.

 

[Bilderberg Team Builder]

Doctor Who ratings have been falling for the last few years, but if they keep falling the BBC can blame sexism and not their lazy writing now.

Smug is not salt. I'm sorry you have a preference on who to mock. It cuts down on the overall laughs. It's okay to laugh at people you may "side with"

 

[Morose_Obesity]

Eh, they're cute. Now, the companion has to be somebody hot for them to have tension with.
That one black chick from years back wasn't too hard to look at. If they want them to lez it up to get sjw viewers maybe bring them back.

 

[Rabbit without a hat]

It's a tv show who gives a shit

I mean I do but still...

[Lensherr]

Not a Doctor Who fan (I did enjoy the 'City of Death' serial that my Whovian friend showed me though), so I can't say I feel strongly about this one way or another, but I do wonder how much of the "misogynist backlash" is real and how much is manufactured.

"I genuinely feel bereaved."

It's a fictional character man!
