parasites are "evil" by design, it is an evil entity but that does NOT mean it's a CM..

Valeyard is more of a CM than it is and I'll tell you why :

characters like Valeyard have the capability to be morally "good" but choose to be "evil" and some of the WORST Who villains are human (or close).. because Who aliens tend to be "Made of Evil" or generic "Monsters".

Even Daleks, the most evil characters in the show, are exempt from CM status due to the fact they are A) an entire race and B) can not understand good.

Akhaten is not a CM because it is unable to be "good", it is a giant negativity vampire.. Doctor even says so himself.

I know my Who lore, so don't try that old line.. I pretty much love the show (and its variety of monsters).

again.. VERY few Who aliens can be CMs.. Akhaten is definitely not one of them.
