[uk-pol] Sort of. So the queen has covid and people are like lawl 9 would totally shoot the queen go 9

like yes what she represents is problematic but at the same time she's a person and a life is a life. She's also not taking lives or anything like that
Flash Bastard
Also, uh, no he wouldn't? From what I remember of that run of episodes, anyway.

and secondly 9 wouldn't shoot the queen. He didn't kill a dalek and he sure as hell wouldn't kill a human
๐”ฏ๐”ž๐”ฆ๐”ซ๐”Ÿ๐”ฌ๐”ด ๐”ญ๐”ฆ๐”ฏ๐”ž๐” ๐‘ฆ~
but this is all based around the idea of Eccleston calling the queen a parasite

and I don't know him enough to say that I doubt he actually wishes her dead but

can we not make death and covid a joke just because it's someone we don't like???
papermint tiger
...9 is the last fucking Doctor who would kill anyone
papermint tiger
Literally any other Doctor would be more likely to, for a variety of reasons
papermint tiger
But 9????? Wtf, never
papermint tiger
Just because he looks like an edgy punk... Sheesh
papermint tiger
Also best of wishes to her Majesty, I honestly hope she pulls through
papermint tiger
She's a pretty awesome person imo

/nod! I don't know enough one way or the other but I hope she pulls through too
Cerise โ™ข
Auggggh. Why must people be like this.
Cerise โ™ข
Like, I have heard both sides of why people do and don't like royals. Fine. This has literally been an issue for centuries. But that is not a place to wish sickness and death on anyone over it!
Cerise โ™ข
Never mind on someone's elderly widowed granny.
Cerise โ™ข
And yeah, on a character level that's just plain 'what'. (Now I feel like I need to go rewatch The Empty Child.)
Cerise โ™ข
Anyway, yes.
Tanarian
Cerise โ™ข : I like how you said it.
Cerise โ™ข
Tanarian : Hehe, thank you. I always worry about phrasing these issues badly because it's such a big subject, but ... well, yeah.
Tanarian
Cerise โ™ข : I hang out with Welsh Nationalists who are utterly fed up with anything English imposed on them, and forget that even as privileged as they are, the Royal Family are as trapped by English expectations as any of the Celts.
Cerise โ™ข
Oof, yeah, I can imagine that; I live in Wales myself (British mutt, more Welsh than anything else but vague handwave?) so I know the sort of attitudes.
Cerise โ™ข
I can respect wanting less England to happen in Wales, the historical beef comes from legit places. But there are so many levels of history and complication that I just tend to say I know where my limits are and don't get into it...
