What do we call it when the show has politics you agree with but you still think its too heavy handed and the messaging constantly feels like you're being talked down to?

No effing doubt.

Didn't need the Discovery part for 90% of the series tbh

Patronising. RTD loves to be patronising because he doesn't understand subtlety.

If I lived in a monarchy I'd be patronizing to everyone around me too, they're into that shit

this is just how RTD writes Doctor Who, but people loved it the first time for some reason.

when someone is patronizing and talking down to us it means either we are at work or on Reddit

It means you are above average intelligence. Its a burden.
