And coming from a person who's supposed to be a professional journalist... welp.
@@Vits117 Not a professional journalist, a writer for the Guardian. These are not the same thing.
@@OsellaSquadraCorse Professional crack pot is a better term.
Hypocrisy is the biggest issue I have with these people filled with "toxic positivity" or that reject criticism claiming it's "Evil people that want to use objectivity to make their opinions sound more legit, SHAME ON THEM FOR NOT BEING A SUBJECTIVE FREE BIRD LIKE I AM!!!" ...Even though they themselves are doing exactly that: shitting on people for not complying to _their_ (very flimsy and malleable) standards of right and wrong.
@@Vits117 I don't honestly think that "professional" and "journalist" can exist in the same sentence anymore.
Unless it's something like "This professional's life was ruined by a journalist who couldn't be bothered to do proper research before they released their clickbaity hit piece."
Twitter user: "People shouldn't spend their time being hateful about another person's work" - proceeds to spend time being hateful about another person's work.
That’s what annoys me the most about them.They go on about "let people do what they want" etc etc and then get offended by a video they aren’t even gonna watch.Literally if jodie whittaker took a shit on the tardis floor and you said something bad about it,you’d be branded a sexist hater 🙄

@I Dunno definitely.Most of the people who defend her madly are the same people who didn’t want capaldi coz he was "too old".Its just hypocrisy at its finest
That’s pretty much extremist groups for you. Or just…Twitter in general. You apply logic to any controversial subjects, there are bound to be people coming up in arms to shun that logic in an attempt to defend their pride.

Honestly, if you think Nazis were generally pretty racist people, maybe you're a fascist I guess?
and yet they AREN'T the alt right one in this scenario?
Well they weren’t racist like that, they had actual things that they hated about the races they put in the camps, you can argue the truth of their beliefs but it wasn’t ever just “they look different” in the nazi perception.
@@Abysalss That is literally racism.

The point the guy from that article was making was completely asinine anyway. "Oh yeah the Nazis occasionally made use of non-white collaborators and therefore had no problems with non-white people and would happily put them in positions of authority over German soldiers" is a nonsensically bad take. They also made use of Russian collaborators, would this guy read that as the Nazis having no particular loathing for Slavs, for example? What a dingus.

Ain’t this the truth!
Happens on both sides. There was a famous case where a sexual predator (who happened to be trans) was targeting Muslim women and children. And the usual liberal arguments like "conservatives only pretend to care about kids" or "you just hate trans people". But like no serious this person repeatedly assaulted kids and brown people. Their identity shouldn't matter.
I don’t know why people get mad about constructive criticism
Because internet man said mean angery things about thing I like
MHM They just don't like opinions that contradict their own
Because some people tie their whole personality to things that they like. And since they lack other aspects of their personality, an attack on their favorite things turns into a personal insult to them.
They can endlessly talk about how their favorite thing is beautiful. And if you dare to criticize their favorite thing, suddenly standards begin to be imposed. Is the criticism too short? The criticism is superficial. Is the criticism too long? Go outside and touch the grass!
All feelings are important, all assessments are valid, any criticism is hatred. Enjoy the product. Don't ask questions. But only you can't criticize. They can descend to the most poisonous and vile personal insults. They will run after you for three days just to tell you how much they don't care about you and how sorry they are for you.
Because for them, you are a villain who wants to get a quality product. And they have enough of the available product and they are happy. And you spoil their fun, because you claim that their favorite thing is bad. After all, you can't love bad things and understand that they are bad. Smokers, for example, usually understand that their lungs will not thank them for cigarettes. But they can't admit it. For their favorite things are their personalities. And if they like bad things, then their personality is not so good either.
Because they want to avoid criticism all together. It's pretty simple, but frankly it doesn't excuse the show of doctor who or help it. I thought Jay was more than fair in his video as opposed to complaining identity politics and not showing why the show is clearly a dumpster fire of qaulity at this point even without politics being put in.
Insecurities.
They don't want something they deem 'precious' to them being 'put down' by other people. Ironically enough, they're also generally the kind of people who'll jump in glee when something they don't like get that very treatment.
Quotation mark, because it doesn't actually have to be that. It just have to be perceived as 'putting down' by some folks.
A wonderful sentence I saw on reddit once: "The greatest trick the devil ever played was making 'Doctor Who' shit at the same time that a woman was cast as the main character"
Edit:
I find it funny. That's all. Give me a doctor of any sex, class, colour, or creed; I'll be on board.
Ooh that's a good one! Well said! 😁👍
The 1st season of 12 wasn't great either. I suspect it's still going to suck with Jodie gone if Chibnail stays on.
Making good with a woman main actor so everyone likes it ⛔️. Making it bad with a woman main actor 🥰
At this point the writing is so bad I'm convinced Chibnall is sexist and wants to make sure Whittaker's doctor is so bad that there's never a female doctor again. It can't be this bad by accident.
@@tgoas3503 He's not, he's just that bad. I know it's a joke but it's pretty unfair to the guy to make the statement. Simple fact is, a lot of people working in the entertainment industry are not that talented. Hard to believe, I know, took me a whole week to internalize that fact, but Chibnall is just... not good at the job he has.
If you can rant for five hours, that is f%%%ing amazing. Seriously, your Doctor Who video was amazing and spot on. In order for you to make that video, you had to be a HUGE fan of the product. You can't be that in depth on where the show has gone wrong without seeing just how right the show can be. I lost interest and wondered if I just grew out of it, so I went back and watched a Tennant episode and realized I still love what the show was, just not what it is now.
My boyfriend holds a neutral dislike of Doctor Who and he watched half the 5 hour video with me
... the latter half, after casually watching over my shoulder and being entranced.

@@DrGandWmaybe just a general common sense course instead.
"The implied misogyny of making a video on the only female Doctor Who"
You mean the video in which he spends most of it criticising the white male that made the show and praising the shit out of what I assume is the only episode where the lead writer is a woman and his main point of praise is that the female doctor is demonstrating strength against the male villain who is also demonstrating strength, showing that she's not going to be intimidated by his display of strength? He also spends most of the video criticising the fact that the female Doctor is shown to be too weak, both emotionally and charismatically throughout the series and said that he was more excited to hear that the female lead writer for that one episode becoming a core writer for the next season than he was when he was a child sitting inside an operable Dalek.
You don't need any more proof that these people resort to accusations of sexism without actually caring about whether or not it's sexist just as a way to dismiss something entirely without having to argue their stance or make any effort whatsoever.
@Quentin Goodman Well we can get it back, if we're all held to a standard
Jay also happens to be a trans woman herself, so there's that.
"If you have a different opinion to me then you are an ist/phobe" Seems to be their standard argument. It's not a very good one.

@@DeviantDork I can literally click on the video and already see _timestamped chapters_ which separate the video into many parts. I thought it was bad that you are making arguments against a video's content that you haven't watched, _but you haven't even clicked on the video._
honestly i think the freaking article calling your views "fascist" and "misogynistic" might as well be sued for defamation because that is some very heavy and untrue accusations.
Fun-Fact:
Madvocate and Hbomberguy, legends as they are,
did just what Jay Exci did.
HOUR-LONG and CONSTRUCTIVE (!) Criticism about Shows.
Videos so damn-good that not knowing the Shows discussed is literally no
reason not to watch.
Unfortunately that probably wouldn't hold in court because that singular comment on its own hasn't caused enough damage to Jay's public image, personal relationships etc.
@@ziwuri ah I see, I'm not an expert so I just thought that would work
@@ziwuri plus it's subjective
while "fascist" and "misogynistic" certainly are false claims, they're subjective enough that they could be seen as opinion, while they actually didn't accuse Jay of any objective things other than the truth
like, they didn't accuse them of saying something they didn't say, or of doing anything
@@raphaelmorgan2307 You're wrong. They clearly accused her of criticizing the new Doctor Who episodes only because the main character is a woman instead of a man.
(I hate that I feel like I have to clarify, but obviously that's not why she made the video. These toxic commenters simply couldn't be bothered to watch it.)
You would think people who like TV shows that go on for years and can't be binged within a few hours would understand how being longer can actually be a good thing.
It’s literally 4 and a half instances of the video long, like what the hell
It's weird because it only seems really logical that, you know, people who make longer videos would probably have more to say? I mean, how many times do people think you can say 'show bad' without actually making an actual point in a FIVE HOUR video??? What???
If anything, it's the really short videos I'd expect to be shallow. If you're taking less than 10 minutes to talk about over 20 hours of footage then I have no idea how you could even get to any meaningful conclusions in that timeframe.
It's certainly a fact that video is 5 hours long.
@@Edax_Royeaux slight over five hours...
I guess people don't like wing punctuation about numbers.
@@dracocrusher Personally, 5hrs is 100% too long HOWEVER: It can be excused because of the target audience of the video. A critical essay in literature really doesn't need that type of length, but a lot of the time spent on the essay seemed to go to source material/evidence of his claims or explaining his stance. Realistically, the same video could be 2-3hrs in length without suffering from that much lost content. It's not quantity that led to its length, more structuring. But again, it's excused by the target audience of the video. It's made to be extremely accessible and well explained so that people can't make weak points about failed criticism or "subjective opinions". That made them turn to "Chibnall bad" and "5hrs?!?", but they're obviously weak criticisms as they don't actually dispute the legitimacy of the criticisms within the video.
For the video itself, I definitely think a big part of its length comes from the 'walkthrough' structured criticisms and them taking too long. While it's a great way to drive home your point to those who aren't as experienced in literature, I think it suffers in long essays about an entire series as it really bloats the length. It works great for essays surrounding a couple of episodes, or essays that are focusing on a certain problem with the series. But with a more general criticism of the entire series, it ends up leading to its long length. Essentially, a large bulk of the essay seemed to be put into paraphrasing.
Personally, I think the essay would be better served with it being segmented into different issues the series suffered from. So, for example, half an hour on the characters of the series, rather than nearly an hour on a single episode. Then, laying out your criticisms/issues with something like the characters without relying too much on the source material to continually prove your point. A couple of scenes supporting your claims are a good thing, but entire episodes with a variety of criticisms leads to the longer length and kind of random structure of actual points made.
Really enjoyed the video, BUT its length was an issue. Again, doesn't actually dispute his points, it's only something someone studying/with a career in writing would notice and find issue with.
"I can't believe someone would make something so negative" they say, as they themselves are being negative over something they haven't even FUCKING SEEN.
10/10 bimpson in your profile picture there, very nice
Overly positive people are far worse than any negative person from what I've seen.

I read that "bottle amongst yourselves"
It was so good that I had to write it down in my notebook full of scripts so that I could use it later
When I see someone making a 5-hour critique on something my immediate interpretation is "gosh this guy must be really sad that something he loves is going to shit". Cause anyone who commits so much time of their life into producing something, obviously has a passion for the IP.

If it was 1 hour they would have claimed he was cherry picking.
If it was 2 1/2 hours they would pick on its length anyway, and by now they aren't willing to watch it.
At 5 hours, he did a deep analysis of everything and they still didn't pay attention.
Can't win with those idiots.
I hear there is 10 minutes of footage that could have been cut, and wasn't because 5 hours is controversial, but 4 hours and 50 minutes is not.
@Tom Ffrench except jays video does not repeat itself that much it is 5 hours because they personally felt that was the amount of time they needed to properly dissect and discuss the seasons of the show
@Tom Ffrench Here is a challenge for you, download and edit the video and hit all the exact same points in an hour, making sure to keep all the context.
@Tom Ffrench So in one breath you say "No criticism needs to be 5 hours long. An hour maybe, but it’s needlessly long to be 5 hours." and in another you say " I haven’t seen Jay’s video". Oh fuck off.
13:15 Jay realizing mid sentence that he turned into Skeletor and just leaning into it absolutely destroyed me.
Jay: Nazis are bad
Them: Actually, Nazis aren't as bad as you thought
Conclusion: Jay is probably a right-wing extremist
Yeah. I'm gonna need some time digesting that one
It stems from 2 misunderstandings by the writer:
1. He thinks criticizing the Chibnall era is wrong because it has a woman lead therefore criticism is born out of a hatred of the lead, rather than... everything else. He feels that other eras were skipped receiving the same criticism because the mains were men rather than the whole part where you can't criticize the writing of a showrunner by criticizing other showrunners and the video is 5 hours long already how many days do you think it would take to go through the entire Doctor Who canon for fuck's sake?
2. He thinks that because some Indians were on the Nazi side in WWII it means that Nazis were fine with Indians, would love and protect them and not put them into concentration camps, kill them or otherwise torture them as potential spies if found wearing their army's uniform.
Quote:
"It also seems that there is some inspiration from the extreme right-wing influencers, like the misguided “Indian man and Nazis” point, and the misogyny that is implied in singling out the series that have had a female actor playing the Doctor."
Let’s not mention the fact that the Master literally says his been stuck in concentration camps and prisons for 40 years.
Least I’m pretty sure he says something like that
Fucking twitter moment.
Don't try to understand SJWs... just punch them until they stop moving. Trust me, it's very therapeutic!
A Guardian journalist criticizing something they didn't watch. Shocking. I'm aghast.
This same Guardian journalist has today posted an article saying he thinks Dr Who should be cancelled.
You literally couldn't make it up.
@@Avatar1977 I guess he finally got around to watching the show.
gonna correct you there mate, his title is guardian urinalist..
“Indian men can be Nazis if they want to” was not a take I was ready to hear😂😂😂
Of course there were different races allied with the Nazis, but that didnt really change Jay's point that Chibnall clearly was having The Doctor weaponize The Master's perceived race against them.
It's true tho. Skin color is irrelevant to who a person is. There's bad apples in every tree
I saw that 5 hour video essay pop up in my feed and thought "well, I'm definitely not watching that". But I didn't expect anyone to get so mad about it that they half-accidentally aligned themselves with Nazi ideologies. What a world we live in.
Well they ARE Aryans
I love how everyone that hated your work just humiliated themselves and showed their immaturity.
"Apparently people aren't allowed to have favourite eras"
They say, while trying to shut down someone for having opinions on which eras they prefer. H m m
It's almost like what they mean is "why doesnt the popular opinion line up with mine"
It's a wierd take.
I mean... I'm *glad* there are people who enjoy this run. Hell. I'd be horrified if *no one* enjoyed it. But I'm not one of them.
People are literally sharing a screenshot that includes a caption saying 'this took me 6 months' and saying "this is obviously just a rant". WHO WORKS ON A RANT FOR SIX MONTHS? THAT'S NOT HOW RANTING WORKS.
It's really unfair to call A deep analysis with actual effort put into it, as a mere 'rant'. It seems like people use the word to discredit what they dislike
Never met Donald Trump, huh?
Exactly, what you just commented is a rant. A short, quickly made opinion about something.
You don't HAVE to WORK on a rant. That's the beauty of it. No need for a script just get some flashcards with bullet points on them and away you go.
@@gentleseal1778 OK that is definitely not what a rant is, lol. “To speak or shout at length in a wild, impassioned way”, that’s basically the opposite of what you said
From my experience on UA-cam with video essays, these guys going "Oh god it's 5 hours, it's just a bunch of hate filled bs, isn't it?" have it exactly the other way around.
Like, if someone's going to put in the time and effort to go through the process of scripting and editing down the script for 5 hours worth of video, spend countless days just recording the lines, find the right clips, edit those clips in while making sure they won't trip the copyright censors, and everything else that goes into such a huge project, it's not just going to be a rant. By the time anyone just finished recording everything, I'd imagine the anger would be so far past dead that they'd just feel like scrapping it entirely rather than continuing.
If someone just wanted to make a rant hating on a thing that people like complaining about for views, it's not going to be a 5 hour long video that's the result of a months long project. It'll probably be like a 20 minute video, maybe an hour if they _really_ push it. That doesn't take nearly the same commitment as a full hours long video essay would.
I've seen hour long videos about how the "global elite" aka Jews are taking over the world
Video length isn't a good indicator for quality in either direction
People love to make dismissive blanket statements instead of acknowledging the fact that someone made a valid criticism of their favorite media. I wish he'd just ignore the folks on Twitter. It's full of people who will complain over anything they like, because that little corner of the internet encourages people to get angry at trivial nonsense. Unfortunately this time, they came for Jay.

Interesting comment about the Nazi section - Indians were considered to be in the sub-human class which was the same class as the Jews. Hitler did not believe that they were capable of governing themselves and was against any Nationalist movement started by Indians to fight the British.
So no, the article writer is incorrect. The Indian legion was simply using the anti-British sentiment in India to gain an additional fighting force for Germany in a different area of the world, it was NOT an act of respect.
The article writer wanted to sound clever but a quick web search will show you otherwise.
Yes exactly! Same idiots saying “LoOk It uP” didn’t bother to do actual research
Honestly 'there was indian nazis so this man is a nazi because he pointed out a dumb plot point regarding a skin color, and it's only because it's the skin color' is about what I'd expect of the type of arguments who'd resort to such tactics.
Hey remember in Schindler's List when the Nazis had a Jewish Police Service in the Ghetto ? I guess that means handing over Jews to the Nazis was no problem...you stupid article.
i wouldnt call myself an expert on the nazi's or anything but... the "they simply werent white supremicists" nearly made me fall out of my chair. where did this journalist get their history education? i really must know. TIK has a few good videos on their ideology and lists all his sources including some out of Hitlers own words.
@@MrEd8846 TIK is a terrible source. He has consistently demonstrated that he cannot distinguish between Capitalism and Communism as he views UA-cam censorship as Communist due to the private sector advertiser's control over UA-cam's content. UA-cam has an obligation to make money and do whatever makes themselves advertiser friendly, which of course TIK interprets as State-Run Communism because he can no longer say what he likes on their platform.
TIK in his recent Stalingrad Pavlov's House video has compared the Nazi occupation of Stalingrad in 1942 with the current day Greater Manchester Police and Scotland Yard's treatment of London. If you don't believe me, check out his youtube comments on that video, he's not even joking, he doubles down and triples down on the idea that Scotland Yard are actual Nazis and is withholding evidence of this because he's afraid of being "purged". TIK is a ideological zealot, the information you get from him is heavily biased.
I swear I don’t know how many times ive seen situations where it is exactly:
“this video is bad!”
“did you watch it?”
“no because its bad”
I listened to the entire thing while working on a project of my own, and the backlash is completely ridiculous. You made what I consider to be very nuanced critiques and frankly I completely agree with the vast majority of it. It did in no way boil down to “woman bad!” People are just weird.
It's mostly due to a retarded modern view of feminism. Everybody wants to argue that just because something has woman in it or is made by a woman, it's automatically a bad thing and should never exist.
People just want boil points and nothing else.
If you don't know, Nerdrotic, Geeks and Gamers and his friends all argue that MCU is bad now because it is going to have women. Suddenly the fact that marvel and Kevin Feige bringing in more female characters into focus is bad only shows they don't care and just want to rake in on the grift.
Nerdrotic even made a twitter post where he argued with a tag post that it is very sexist to have female directors making superhero films, where the only thing that the tag post said that more female directors should make superhero films. Him saying that only proved that he is incapable of rational thinking. He even argued that shang chi bad because he got defeated by his sister in one scene. Later on, he defeated his father and dweller in darkness in the end.
Geeks and Gamers had made a video not criticising Matrix resurrections, but thinking how woke is it. Clearly that's the only thing possible to him. A movie is bad because it has trans allegory, not because it has problems in screenwriting and filmmaking aspects.
Humans are evolving....... but backwards.
Aha but you see, woman am bad! The mere choice that the lead role would be filled by a girl means that the media is terrible. The writing and decisions couldn't possibly factor into it at all.

@@charg1nmalaz0r51 I used to watch Nerdrotic's Doctor Who videos. Though I disagreed with him on certain points, I didn't think he was actively a liar or insanely alt-right brainwashed like all the rest of the talking heads who pretend to be critics, and I also disliked series 11, so we agreed more than we disagreed. Then he made his It Takes You Away review where his conclusion was that the whole message of the episode was "white single fathers are bad" and then railed against it for that, a thing that is not remotely congruous with reality. Also having a disabled person be a major character is woke and that's bad. That was the last video of his I ever watched. My life has seen no significant downgrade now that I don't watch a miserable git who's friends with actual Nazis (because you have to be to be in the anti-woke critic space) and makes pretending to like nerd things and hating minorities their entire personality.
its crazy how the same guys who attack that dude who apologized and called him a coward immediately block you for just responding to them
That "I nodded but found myself liking the series anyway" response is something I f*ing love. Can we have more of that in everything???
ex-fucking-actly! there are plenty of shows, books, movies i LOVE that are (objectively speaking), poorly made, badly written, etc. i still love them, but i can fully understand and agree with a lot of critiques people have. it doesnt change my opinion of it, but i think understanding where people are coming from is really important
Ppl hate the idea of liking something that isn't well made cause they somehow tie liking that thing to their own self worth but its not deep like that.
I think one of the most important things Jay said (I don’t know if it was in the Doctor Who video) is that your enjoyment of bad things wouldn’t be diminished if it were actually good.

I think this is the first time I've heard anyone arguing that the Nazis weren't THAT white supremacist. What the hell is this article talking about?

@@theshire9173 No joke, the Nazi argument was that the Japanese were the Asian ubermench. Still pretty racist
They weren't, but were extreme German/Germanic Supremacists
Thing is, if my understanding of history is correct, that part of the article wasn't the problem. The racism of the Nazi's is not as cut and dry as is often assumed (please read; they were still incredibly racist); for instance, there were actually Nazi Jews. Based on my understanding of WW2, it is not inconceivable that a person of color rose to a position of military rank in the Nazi party... unfortunately the article then devolved into meaningless ad hoc strawman nonsense.
@@andrewbailey695 No that's not actually true. There were a lot of Jews that were members of the NSDAP who still got killed in the concentration camps, especially in the later stages when it was clear that the war was lost.
EDIT: and also, if your point is "The Nazis weren't actually that bad", WTF?! They literally killed MILLIONS of people.

Sometimes, you simply can't address a topic with sufficient nuance in a short clip. Sure there's presenters that pad out time with a lot of fluff, but that doesn't mean that long is always bad. It would be nice if things could be kept short, yes, but it's not always possible. By having a knee-jerk reaction to the discomfort of a long run time, there's the risk of missing out on important information.

I'm an aged, huge fan of Doctor Who. I grew up in an agrarian community in Virginia's, poverty stricken Appalachian country.
So, we had 3 channels available in 1974 here, and if I turned the 13" B&W TV'S rabbit ear antenna just right, I could pick up PBS. That brought Jon Pertwee's amazing Doctor into my life.
Later I would utterly fall in love with Tom Baker's Doctor. Doctor Who and Star Trek were my oasis of sanity in an extremely depressing and soul crushing world here. When your mother makes you a ketchup sandwich for your birthday because she grabbed a bunch of packets from a store when no one noticed, Doctor Who telling you that violence doesn't solve problems, becomes a balm for the pain.
My anger at what they did to a show that literally made me a better person, far exceeds your own. But, your 5 hour video was very well made, and thought out.

For reasons like your own, this is why I firmly believe that media (including grainy, B&W, 13" TV shows) can be so overwhelmingly influencial.

Therefore, it's not, "change is bad" as the battle cry; but, "this affects me deeply and I don't believe that I can support its continued existence".

I genuinely don’t understand how people can so confidently complain about the content of a video they haven’t seen. To me, even when badly criticizing a UA-cam video for things like misogyny, or racism, or anything for that matter, the first logical step would be to WATCH THE VIDEO. These people are acting high and mighty for not liking a UA-cam video they haven’t watched yet and claiming baselessly they the video is arguing in bad faith. The worst part of all of this though is that I’m not surprised it’s happening. What has the world come to?
I definitely can’t fathom how people do that. I get anxious when I make a comment before I finish a video about literally anything because WhAt If ThEy TaLk AbOuT iT lAtEr?!?!? So the confidence some people have to just say what they think someone says without doing the smallest scrap of research by just watching the damn thing is just 😳😳😳
about all nonsense of mysogyny and racism youtube videos dont generally have them its just that most people see them where they are not there
My biggest surprise is that one of them (that Martin) was actually a journalist. You'd assume journalists of all people would understand how important it is to have ACTUALLY WATCHED THE SOURCE before saying anything huge about it. If I had to guess, their excuse was probably "not worth my time"-even though you can easily just skim through the first ten or twenty minutes to at least get the rundown.
Anyone whose first thought when seeing a video length of five hours is "Oh no, it will be rant" then...ok? But actually watch and look out for rant signs first?
TO be perfectly frank about your last question, this is not new behaviour that the World is suddenly experiencing. This is why things like Chernobyl occurred, not to mention the cover-up which followed it; and it predated the 1980s as well, by decades.
It begs a question, are they aware of how they're projecting Bad Faith rather than owning their own proverbial shit? Or are they oblivious to it?
@@milkjug4237 honestly it’s a shame what journalism has come to but half the problem is that the internet allows people with zero training or ethical standards to become “reporters,” and in order to keep up with their rapid fire trash reporting more legitimate sources have had to trade their careful researching for reactionary BS like this.
I watched the whole 5h critique (with the speed increased to my preferred comfortable listening pace) fully planning to watch something else as soon as the video got boring, felt disingenuous, or otherwise not worth my time. I found the comparison of old and new Who very apt, and despite my ADHD I never clicked away. The haters are gonna hate, let them wallow in their ignorance.
Had the exact same experience! "I'll turn it off when I get bored, let's see..."
Held my attention the whole time, includes so many clips of the show! Jay could've made a separate video for every episode, ended up with way more hours of content, but no one would've cared.
_(I also have ADHD)_
I honestly don't care who has an opinion but if they make a 5-hour well-edited video on that opinion, I will watch it.
This exactly! I don't care if I viemently disagree and will probably never have my opinion swayed on a given topic. If you put enough obvious care and effort into something, I'm going to watch it and hear you out because obviously you want people like me who don't agree to watch it. I want to encourage discourse, and hey, maybe I will be swayed. 5 hours can house a lot of arguments, and maybe there's one on there I haven't heard before and instantly convinces me to change my opinion.

I love watching Video Essays, even on things i don’t agree with. As long as the people are right in their criticism and not just making stuff up tho
yeah i honestly don't get where this "thing long bad" mindset came from. me first thought went to twitter and other forms of social media, even blogs, where they either don't give that room for long form essay or there's room for that but people are discouraged from making those types of posts bc the engagement is low anyway. sure there's a chance someone might just trail off and starts ranting only slightly coherent in long videos, but at that point it's easy to tune out. but any long form response/critique imo should be welcomed at first (i.e. not immediately dismissed) bc hey, the probability of the creator fully explain their reasoning and why they came to the conclusion they came to is pretty high.

The quote where those people justified using the Master’s skin tone against him by talking about the Indian legion is the pretty much the same argument people use to say that the Confederacy wasn’t racist because there were black confederate units. Also there are points in the video where Jay is critical of stories featuring male Doctors, namely the 2 Doctors episode.
"I can't be racist! I have a black friend!"
Not to mention he has a pretty strong British accent which makes him sound much more like a Commonwealth spy than an Indian (or Pakistani idk the actor) collaborator, not to mention the fact that he’s an unexpected man in the middle of their base wearing a stolen uniform which should make him suspicious automatically. Also the Azad Hind army was limited to Burma and never saw action in Europe so they *should* be suspicious. But sure whatever makes them feel better.
Edit: Nevermind the German collaborators did see non-combat action in Europe, I was thinking of the Japanese collaborators. But the point still stands
It's insane.
"You see the Nazi's would have been fine with him being brown because they had an Indian legion made up of prisoners of war...who presumably got the choice of fight for the Nazis or die...so you are far right" - An actual real inner monologue of a journalist probably.
Yeah, it's fucking baffling.
The article apparently assumes for literally no reason that jay thinks the scene is bad because some random Wehrmacht soldiers would definitely kill or torture any person just for being non-white. And yeah, that wouldve been nonsense but it's *not the point made in jay's video* and it's also not nearly a common enough misunderstanding / historical illiteracy surrounding WW2 / third reich that it would warrant mentioning anyway, but *especially* not mentioning it to the detriment of someone who was making a completely different point, wtf.
Reads a lot like the article's writer assumed that jay was RW / RW inspired because "criticising thing with woman in it is misogynist" and then tried to throw in some more buzzwords.
There weren't actually any black confederate formations. I get your point, but the armchair historian in me can't help but not point that out
Edit: Someone pointed out the 1st Native Guard which was a black/mixed militia in New Orleans. But they were a parade unit and surrended almost immediately to Union officals. So to clarify (and to avoid any possible shit shows) there were no black confederate formations that served in a combat role.
My last exposure to Doctor Who was as a child, with the 10th and 11th Doctor eras. I clicked out of curiosity and was amazed at the quality and depth of feedback. Five hours is, arguably, brisk for deconstruction of an entire season of televison with 22 50 minute episodes!
This is good faith, useful, well-considered critique that gave me excellent insight into the problems with the new season, and actually got me interested in checking out some more of the show! I felt like watching more of the old seasons, checking out some extended media! Stuff like this should be seen as an absolute gold mine for showmakers. It even had community polls! Real data! Fuck, I would kill to get that on *one* script I've done, never mind two full seasons!

Any time someone assumes you only hate a series because a character in it's a minority even if your criticism and dislike of it has nothing to do with minorities is usually projecting.
It’s like responses to his paradise pd (?) video - which were largely “everyone is entitled to an opinion so how dare you attack something I like” - not realising their very line of ‘reasoning’ invalidates their whole argument
Nah but you see when someone makes a video on UA-cam and other people watch it, they may agree with it and if the opinion they agree with is that the thing I like is bad, then that means they think I am bad so their opinion can't be true because I like it and I am not bad therefore my opinion is more valid than theirs and they can go fuck themselves and their freedom of thought because my freedom of thought is more important because I think therefore I am!
I... I think that's how that goes? It hurts trying to think through that kind of reasoning.
twitter when they dont have a comeback: “Get Blocked”
also all these people calling you a loser when they prolly tweet 200 times a day
also journalists not knowing PoW means prisoners of war is not surprising
What do they think it is? Person of winnership? Morons.

I got blocked once for pointing out that the idea of "power corrupts" doesn't make sense and most likely has its roots in propaganda designed to keep people down. No argument or even answer to that, just 🌟 blocked.🌟 Apparently they didn't even have the contextual accumen to understand that while I was disagreeing with them, I wasn't doing so because I disgreed with *all* progressive notions. Talk about insecure positions.
Seriously that platform encourages and rewards unhealthy levels of narcissism. Honestly wonder whether or not it should be considered a crime against mental wellbeing sometimes.
@@Lotan_ I will say powers does corrupt in a way, as in it easier with power to be tempted to commit more selfish and worse actions. But what really matters is if the person with the power has good advisers around them and not just yes men or manipulators. Their morals and up bringing. And their aims and desires. It is more like power without self restraint or good morals leads to corruption.
Seriously twitter, that wasn't a hate video. It was a patient and loving explanation to the show runners why they're not doing a good job. With loads of evidence, well reasoned critisims and a level headed tone throughout the whole thing. It was essentially a masterful essay. A work of art.
At no point did I feel enraged, just amused, and sad that something I like is being so neglected.
It was actually VERY USEFUL. And I seriously want to thank you here because I like to write for fun, bit found myself frustrated with my writing lately. Watching this video made me realize I was going down many of the paths he was describing, and how to avoid it in the future. Seriously, if someone put this as course material for a college on how to write for media, it would be well justified and very informative. I wish the creators of this show would watch this.
i mean, she was a li'l petty towards chibnall
but he's chibnall so
@@totallynotaferrettrue, but literally every hate comment I've seen levelled towards Jay was from people saying worse things than was ever said about Chibnall in the video
It just came across as some cheeky comedy about some of his shite writing. Meanwhile, people are calling Jay sad, having no personality, the video being unwatchable (despite not watching said video...)
Hell, even Jay pointed out anything he did like about the episodes! These people are so fragile they can't handle any amount of criticism levelled at a show, that I bet some of them haven't even watched themselves
The start of the video made me realize that I kind of wish there was a way to browse youtube but locked to a certain year. Like lock it to 2013 and only see videos from 2013 and earlier. It feels like the youtube algorithm VIOLENTLY suppresses anything that is older than 1-2 years even if I desperately search for older content. There is so much semi-lost media on youtube that is never discovered again because of the algorithm never recommending it. It doesn't help that search results are also 50% unrelated to what you even searched for.
Funny. I feel like half my feed is just old videos...
'Implied misogyny' huh? It seems like that person is saying that whenever misogyny COULD be a motivating factor, that we should always assume it to be the case. That is literally the definition of acting in bad faith.
21:07 - you know my brain kept trying to distract me with that "Am I gay?" quiz but you just nonchalantly and without missing a beat giving it attention in the way that you did broke me a little. thank you
That quiz is everywhere lol
Man, Hbomb just uploads multiple hour long videos about things I've never heard and I watch them. SO 5 hours of doctor who? I was sold and enjoyed it. It's a good video and this one too. Tahnks.
I don’t get the ppl complaining that the video is “too long” and thus bad.
I have ADHD and have already watched it twice! In fact, I’m gonna watch it for the third time today lol.
I can’t sit down and watch it with my eyes, definitely not for 5 hours in a row, sure. But I just play it in the background while I take care of mundane chores because it’s really entertaining.
IT’S JUST A REALLY GOOD VIDEO
I have spoken to some people on Twitter and it's not the length of the video, it's the problem that many people felt very negative afterwards.
My boyfriend and I did it in episodes. Great entertainment to watch it over a Chinese. Jay you rock!
@@timrob12 what does "felt very negative" even mean?
I also have adhd and video essays are my comfort watching thing. Sometimes when im feelimg particularly dysregulated theyre the only thing my brain can concentrate on. I've watched every lindsey ellis video and the folding ideas video essays on '50 shades' about 2 or 3 times. So a five hour essay about a subject i like is a goldmine
The video is 5 hours, but it could have been divided into hour long videos. You don't hear these complaints from a 5 episode 1 hour video series. There are plenty of reviewers who make 20 minute reviews of each episode, and that amounts to 7 hours of content.
I've never seen Doctor Who before, but I clicked on it out of curiosity. I didn't see how long it was. I watched the whole thing in one go and barely noticed the time fly. Jay should be proud. He single handedly convinced me to watch it... As soon as he watches the Lord of the Rings. Do it, Jay.
@@ziwuri
You realise "He" is literally one of the pronouns right? Which is what was used? Also I'm almost certain those pronouns in itself is a joke because he doesn't care what he's referred to as. You pointing it out on all these comments means the joke went right over your head and you're doing the very opposite of its intention. Stop bringing it up.
@@ziwuri I'm not sure i've seen anyone with pronouns laid out in order like that in terms of preference. Not saying people don't do it, I totally could believe that.
Just saying me and other people I know just have it as more of a listing of pronouns rather then a best to worst.
@@ziwuri Again I could totally understand that, and either way I always make sure to call anyone what their preferred pronoun is if they have one. I just think it's worth remember the slash simply means and/or, so most likely people are saying exactly that in terms of their pronouns, not specifically listing them in order. Still, you at least pointed the possibility out, and I think that's worth keeping in mind as well, so in the future I might also try to keep it in mind as a possibility. Just know that not everyone specifically does this, infact I know many who have pronouns they prefer just sort of set randomly.
@@ziwuri And I totally get that, a lot of thoughts we formed can often be carried by our own biases and what not. I absolutely wasn't here to put down you for what you said or nothing if there's anyone thinking that, because I totally can understand that, and tbh anyone who would use pronouns you're uncomfortable with are probably assholes. I just think, while okay to make it known what pronouns prefer, we should also remember that it's not really us who says who someone's preferred pronouns are in specifics, we can't speak for others after all, which I think you already understand anyways given you said so, and that requires a level o maturity I think more people could have.
@@ziwuri Cringed so hard reading this
Makes you wonder if the "long is bad" people ever read a book that has more than 100 pages (or with fonts smaller than 16).
Funny enough, I have better attention listening to the long men then I have reading. Probably pathetic for me ngl
They come from a platform with a 280-character limit. I expect *any* content of substance is little beyond what they're comfortable dealing with. As soon as you're saying enough words that you have to stop and breathe in the middle of saying them, then I fear you've already lost them.
You accidentally added an extra 0 to the number "10."
As a young adult myself, I can confirm this is probably accurate. As in they haven’t. Because it’s “boring”.
Only if it's harry potter or something about communism. XD
The fact the 5 hour video and this one are still the first things that pop up when you search Dr.Who makes me so happy.
Twitter is seriously the height of "I like Thing, that makes Thing perfect, any criticism of Thing is a direct attack on my person, if you don't like Thing that makes you fundamentally bad."
That's because they make Thing personal to them by doing weird shit like roleplaying on Twitter as Thing's Character, writing pornography about Thing and Thing's Characters, reimagining and rewriting Thing to be more about them and generally just absorbing Thing into the strange, eldritch mass of kneejerk and homogenity that is their self-perception. If Thing is criticized, and I am Thing, I am under attack! It's as you say.
Thing sucks! I hate Thing and because you like Thing I hate you as well as you are the same as Thing!
Would probably be how all criticism is read by fans of "Thing" and that just crosses a lot of wires.
"I dont like this thing"
But I like that thing… I Like That Thing what the fuck I LIKE THAT THING! YOU KNOW, THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO EXIST WHO LIKE THAT THING AND WE WILL NOT BE SILENCED YOU FUCKING SON OF A BITCH! I like that thing… I like that thing…."
"But I do like this thing"
"... I don't like that thing. I don- that thing fucking sucks, I don't like that thing OOOOHHHHH!"
@@Sirkent115 I have no clue how we moved away from being okay with liking bad things to feeling like we have to defend every shitty little thing we like with tooth and claw.
These people don't have an ounce of self criticism and it's seriously baffling. The more I like something, the more critical I am of it, but Twitter literally believes that "I like it so it must be perfect".
Video: *addressing stupid criticisms of the essay*
Me, the whole way through: _"Is this guy British or just a very posh Australian-"_
Dude... That was running through my head too at times.

I'm a truck driver and I love listening to 5 hour videos as I drive across the country. It's a great way to pass the time. Thank you for making extra long videos, they are wonderfully entertaining and I will listen to every single minute of them!
I watched a 5 hour video essay on a show that I have never seen in my life. That’s how engaging, interesting and fascinating that 5 hour video essay was. I split it over a few days and I was so excited every time I went back to the video to continue. 👏
Any peice of media warrants 5+ hour video essay. If you enjoy the process, do the research, and value the work you're criticising, then yes! I mean, it's literally a video ESSAY.
If you're capable of going that deep in the weeds without getting lost in them or just doing it for the sake of it, then it's extremely impressive and worthwhile.
Twitter is a war of attrition but everyone only has one soldier.
I see no lies here
They wouldn't have hated the dark skinned man because they had token Indian POWs is a WILD take.
"I loved this show too hard for 5 hours" this makes me want to watch the whole thing again
Me too and I will problably do that now for the fourth time🤣
Also they try and bring up the Indian Legion as a way of showing how the Nazis wouldn't be racist to an Indian man in their army, while simultaneously pointing out that Indian Legion soldiers were POWs..? Do they not know what POW means? A POW-Conscript of a Foreign Legion doesn't become an officer in the mainland army, at the *very least*.

How do people not know what a prisoner of war is?
@@whenwhen2284 The Nazis tried to create an Irish Legion from POWS. They barely raised a platoon.
@@dr8576 That's mainly because the Irish weren't even in the war.
Okay seriously, the mental gymnastics in that article.
1) the video says The Doctor acted unethically in revealing The Master's race to the nazis.
2) article says, "actually no, the nazis liked the Indians" (?)
3) therefore the video is fascist?
What? Seriously, what the hell?
and factually inaccurate to boot. The Nazis didn't like the Indians. Why else would they be POWs...?
Also, just because they had an Indian Legion doesn't speak to how they'd treat EVERY individual enemy they came across
Author jumped to some really stupid conclusions in the article. Quote:
"It also seems that there is some inspiration from the extreme right-wing influencers, like the misguided “Indian man and Nazis” point, and the misogyny that is implied in singling out the series that have had a female actor playing the Doctor."
So basically he's saying that because the video criticizes an era that has a woman as the lead, it is misogynistic and because men of Indian descent were part of a single company on the Nazi side in WWII that means that all Indians were welcome by the Nazis, wouldn't have been murdered or sent to camps and were instead, really good friends of the regime therefore, because it is misogynistic and completely factually wrong that Nazis would be more likely to murder an Indian on sight when they have guns pointed at him (not to mention that the point was that the Doctor was siccing the fucking Nazis on an Indian man, not what the Nazis would do, for fuck's sake), that means the video is fascist.
... That's a bit of a stretch, I would say. Also this quote:
"If, on the other hand, the ideas in the video were allowed to infect the writing in the future, Doctor Who will be impossible to produce."
So here you have it: if Doctor Who was to be well-written and consistent... it would be *impossible* to produce.
Can we call that a bit of a Freudian slip? It has nothing related to wanting to bang your relatives but it really sounds like a kernel of realization made it out into the article there.
Oh also:
"There has been some outrage over this episode: it would seem that Chris Chibnall overestimated the audience’s education here."
Gotta love that insult aimed straight at the audience for being upset their heroine sicced the fucking Nazis on a person in hopes he would be detained (in THE CONCENTRATION CAMPS!), arrested (and beaten and tortured due to the whole being in the middle of WWII thing, not a bother) or murdered. But yeah, the audience is stupid, amirite?
@@oswin1234 "The Nazis didn't like the Indians. Why else would they be POWs...?" Because India fought against them in the war?
