So in a choice between being controlled by aliens they can't truly fight, and having the instincts not to just stand there and stare until one of the aliens kills them... humans are better off being killed or manipulated by the aliens, than being manipulated by one alien who has their best interests at heart(s).

Both sides are manipulating humanity. The Doctor is just the nicer option.

Really though, what did the Silence do that was all that bad? I mean, until they started killing people. lmao. Other than that, they just seemed to be guiding humanity's technological advances. Oh no, they were behind the space program. WHAT MONSTERS!!!! We must save humanity from them!!! I'm not saying the Silence were GOOD, but the show did a terrible job of explaining why they apparently they were so terrible that the Doctor had to resort to the extreme measure of doing EXACTLY WHAT THE SILENCE WERE DOING in order to save humanity.

Also, the show never acknowledged that what the Doctor did was something because he had no other choice or that it was morally dubious. It was played as a straight up Hero Moment.

The impression I had is that they may have helped guide human development, but they did not do it out of any real love for humans. Humanity was a means to an end, that end being to kill the Doctor, because of the whole running image of him being bad.

I guess the real point is that I still like the Doctor, even though the new series shows that he can and does pull some crappy shit while he's trying to save people.
