Yes, TARDIS Crew didn’t dress up for the time period most of time in AG DW and never in the few BG DW episodes I have watched. I don’t know why people start complaining about it now.
As for the episode itself I don’t anymore constructive to add besides I felt it was rushed in the beginning and the end but mostly good ,and Kine James…[Read more]

While I don’t understand how people in English world reference to the actors of the Doctor but in China DW fandom we either use Chinese nicknames based on the actor’s full name like “皮卡叔” for PC or just first name translate to Chinese like “马特” for MS. Because in China we don’t refer people just by their family name like…[Read more]

Interesting perspective, alienation is also Marx’s critical point of capitalism. The system killing Kira show it doesn’t holds individual human life in very high regard and the female manager has to always remains herself they are people, not organics. The male manager doesn’t show respect to his human employees.All three of them…[Read more]

 most recent industrial revolution is in China; it’s noticeable how many agricultural workers were desperate to go to the terrible working conditions, long hours and separation from their families that was involved in factory work – because they were already working those kind of hours anyway, and the money was a lot better. China tried to cont…

Chinese form different regions also have small differences in appearance even for Han people. northern Chinese normally are higher and Chinese from southwest border provinces have darker skin.

I won’t blame them since myself can’t tell one is Chinese or Korean or Japanese just by looking at the face.

@pedant

Thank you for your advice.

And to your question.No,we don’t really do that. In most of our history,we don’t see others as our equal but one of three things, tributary starts, barbarians or imperialism invader…[Read more]

I want to see racism being discussed on a more intellectual level. Racism isn’t something that comes out of nowhere. Any english in 12th century will not be a racism against african because most of them never met one.Thay will not have the concept of different race. If not for western nations’s rising power of 16th century to 19th…[Read more]

Thank you for your insight. Our current system is that most of hospitals are technically public,either belongs to government or med school but it isn’t free.Our state health insurance is closed to nonexistent. It doesn’t have full cover of most of major health problems and most people don’t used it, they just pay it out their own p…[Read more]

The UK is about some size of a Chinese province, and our GDP per person is no far lower than yours, maybe your system works better for the UK . I have one family member who has brain cancer who has to borrowed money from other family members including my parents to paid for the treatment. Used all of his and his wife’s savings and s…[Read more]

And an unconditional basic income that could cover long term chronic illness doesn’t sound like a viable option. Both the income, and the subsidies for healthcare would be impractically high. I’m talking about years of therapies, operations, medications, related conditions occurring. we can barely aff…

I am living in a “socialism” nation and it is broken promise. We tried the the communism and it failed so hard it costed millions of lives. Our economic success brought one billion people out of  poverty not because socialism but because we embraced our “worse enemy” the western capitalism and it’s market. Today our “socialism…[Read more]

Through my personal experience I found profits is the better driving force for providing good service then bureaucracy, of course it means people need to be able to afford to enjoy it. it so I want all people have Universa Basic Income unconditional.A well regulated public owned companies is still under public control with interest o…[Read more]

I will argue that existence of God as a philosophical question can be only dealt with Reasoning.Faith is a personal experience and self-assurance therefore it’s isn’t universal, so it cannot be used as argument . A Christian’s faith is meaningless to a atheist who never had any religion beliefs. God as concept isn’t trademarked…[Read more]

If you define God as the Creator of Allthing and Everthing then God is a infinite loop because

cosmological (Aquinas =everything has a beginning and everything has a cause [because there’s an effect]  )

The First Cause must be the effect of itself

Intelligent Design

God must be it’s own design

so God need to create itself before God…[Read more]

If you define God as a Omniscient , Omnipotent and Omnibenevolence being like most of Abrahamic Religions then god is a self-contradiction. If it is Omniscient and Omnipotent then it cannot be Omnibenevolence Because There’s are sufferings which God can know it will happen, has the power to stop it before it happen and yet God di…[Read more]

They are profit driven but within limitations set by the government. companies owned by public can be profit driven, look up world 500 and if you see any Chinese company 9 out 10 it is state owned and regulated by government.

I just found out Malorie Blackman, the co-writer of Rosa, has written Nought & Crosses novel series, an alternative history in which African people had gained a technological and organisational advantage over the European people, rather than the other way around, with Africans having made Europeans their slaves. I think this is the…[Read more]

that Big Government is VERY important.

Small government does not favour the middle income earners, those in marginalised groups in society or the low-income earners. Big Government and discussions around Federalism are best able to provide the best schools, health-care-systems, roads and highways, policing by actual police and Members of…

You should be more specific when Like TLJ spend entire sub plot to just to make a social commentary, main plot is illogical because resistance doesn’t act like a military organization should act. You see, it isn’t  hard to present a true agreement.

Three if you count dialect as one language (Said dialect can only be understood to people who speak it, even if people who speak Mandarin as their first language can’t understand it so I do consider it a unique language)

I also learned some Kung-Fu but never get into it, hope you can do better then me 😉

despite the fact that Chinese workers on the railroads in the US were treated as if they were slaves and were subject to extreme racism, including at least one entirely race-based massacre

I think one thing Is that I, by extend most of China national citizens, never have been in the receiving end of racism personally, because we’re the m…[Read more]

But Doctor Who is a UK show sold (until now) to largely Western markets, where the primary privilege is held by white males, so it is bound to reflect and address that.

Yes, you have a fair point. But it will be interesting if the show has a episode about an alternative history where social, political and economic privilege isn’t held by…[Read more]

Thanks for the tip.(-😀

Thank you! I am new to this site so I still need to get a better understanding of how thing work around here

In the context of this episode, I do agree gun is not a very good way to deal with the spider. Only 2 people have experience with guy(3 if you count the Doctor) others I guess never touched a gun in their life before and one of them has motion disorder.

Having said that, I am not entirely convinced that a show made in the UK by a British company is the best vehicle to explore racism in East Asia.

I think there is some misunderstandings.what mean is that racism or sexism isn’t a white thing, it’s a human thing. I have seen very uncanny similarities between many Chinese And some wes…[Read more]

In an episode about racism, the villain as personified pretty well has to be white, and in 1955 Alabama, male.

Racism isn’t a white only thing, I have seen a good number of racists in China, all of them are Chinese and many of them are woman which means racism are not unique to white or male. So yes you can do a episode about racism whi…[Read more]
