Nobody who enjoys Dr Who for what it is, a series of morality tales and social commentary, gives a shit about if the Dr Who is woke or if the lead is man, woman or something between, let alone their ethnicity (though for sake of continuity they better have a british accent of some descriptor.)
What long time Who fans don't like is poorly written and executed stories, for which there has been far too many of in recent years.
If Doctor Who isn't woke then the showrunner's fuckin something up
You can't make something that's a pile of shit and then hide behind oppression from right wing assholes online. If you watch interviews of the showrunner he knew it was going to be terrible before was ever published when he basically said "It's ok to like things."
