Dalek

From Conservapedia

Jump to: navigation, search

A Dalek is a member of race of cyborgs which hail from the planet Skaro. They are featured in the internationally-popular BBC TV show Doctor Who. Externally they are pepperpot-shaped metallic machines, with a single eye-stalk, a gun, and a utility arm, but internally they are controlled by an amorphous Kaled mutant. The Dalek race is fiercely resistant to malign outside influence, and the purity of their race is of the utmost concern to them. The liberal BBC paint these characteristics in a most negative manner since the Daleks are essentially a conservative race. Indeed when Terry Nation first came up with the concept he modelled them after a right of centre political entity. In the new series of Doctor Who the Daleks are shown to be religious, instructing the Doctor and his companions not to blaspheme. However, they seem to follow some sort of heathen emperor worship cult rather than a genuine religion.

Concept

The Dalek's are largely based off the Nazis in WWII for their quest for universal conquest and unrelenting nature. They are often contrasted by the Cybermen on the show who represent communism.
