It's mental. Who was always left-wing. There was a storyline with a blatant Thatcher surrogate as the villain in the '80s.

I guess Mr I Love The 80s can’t remember the episode where Tom Baker agonises over whether he has the right to wipe out the Daleks before they are born.

Also: selective memory. I remember Tom Baker refusing to cause an explosion which would prevent the Daleks existing ‘because genocide’. Most SJW thing ever.

Nothing I liked when I was young was political, by which I mean I either agreed with the politics or didn't notice it.

They recently did a Who marathon on http://Twitch.tv from the 60's through to 90s. (I watched more than I'm willing to admit) In the 70s in particular it was very unsubtle with its political messaging. Especially on the environment and feminism

Daleks were based on the rise of fascism and Nazi's. Cybermen were based on the concerns of "spare part" surgery and transplants in the 60's....
