Ok, now my actual thoughts on Kerblam! I really quite liked it. In some ways it's the most Doctor Whoish ep this season so far, and the Doctor's more effective than she's been all season. (And it continues the streak of me preferring the eps not written by Chris Chibnall.) The setting works ("Space warehouse" is emphatically within the range of what Doctor Who can do), the robots were the right blend of cute and creepy, I enjoyed the story. (Agree with Jessica's summary that "the plot turns from Evil Bosses to Evil Robots to Basically White Space Killmonger.") Plus, kudos for the dedication to end an episode called "Kerblam!" with a big explosion.
It's also the most right-wing I can remember Doctor Who being since at least the Third Doctor. One comment I've seen, which I can't really argue with, posited that for all the kids watching Kerblam! the takeaway message is "I hope I'm lucky enough to get chosen for a job in a place like that". There's 50% unemployment, and it'd be even higher except companies are obliged to create make-work jobs (there's fulfilment for you). The message, contrary to pretty much everything you hear about conditions in Amazon's warehouses, seems to be that you can trust big business to look after you, and labour activists are one step away from terrorism.
Other bits I thought were morally incoherent: The Doctor foils the plan by having the robots teleport back to the warehouse, thereby thwarting the evil plan. Then - with no imminent threat that it can be re-enacted - she orders the entire room full of robots to commit mass suicide (after earlier upbraiding someone else for prejudice against robots and stating that she has robot friends). Meanwhile, the AI tries to convince the AmazUnabomber that it's wrong to kill innocent lives in pursuit of his goals by killing an innocent life in pursuit of its goal.
But back to the cuddly corporation. DW has a long and proud tradition of making corporations and businesspeople into villains. I'd put the Second Doctor adventure, The Invasion, as the first example, where the electronics mogul Tobias Vaughn helps the Cybermen conquer the Earth. The Third Doctor fought mining companies on distant planets and plastics and oil companies here on Earth. Robert Holmes penned a savage rebuke of corporate greed in The Sun Makers, against a race actually called the Usurians. (Technically it was against excessive taxation, but the government is a corporation running Pluto as a business venture and squeezing the workers in the name of profit.) One of the few (two?) noteworthy additions to the pantheon of monsters during the Sixth Doctor's tenure was Sil, a slug-shaped Ferengi. The Sixth Doctor's Dalek adventure had Davros running a food company and spouting lines like "That would have created what I believe is termed 'consumer resistance.'" (The Seventh Doctor feels like a natural fit to fight capitalism, but it all went a bit weird. Closest he got to fighting commercial ventures were stopping a circus housing the Gods of Ragnarok and stopping a villain running a supermarket to pay for a mercenary army.)
The new series continued in that vein with eps like The Rise of the Cybermen or Sleep No More; and last year's astonishingly savage Oxygen. The point being that for most of its history, whenever it's come up, Doctor Who has very clearly been on the side of the workers. It's been more or less radical (and Oxygen was pretty damn radical), but consistent. Until now.
There are ways in which I think it actually helps the story. It certainly makes the end more of a twist. It doesn't really spoil my enjoyment (and for the record, I did think Oxygen's politics were kind of over the top - which didn't spoil my enjoyment there either). However, it also means I feel obliged to have a careful discussion with Ryan about its message. When Rosa aired, I opined that Doctor Who really couldn't do stories like that, because if it were set on any other planet, the Doctor would burn it all down. Turns out now that under Chibnall, that's no longer the case.
