There's a black artist who keeps trying to pitch beautiful black characters for video games, but all the companies don't want beautiful black women. They insist on ugly black women. TV/film probably has the same issue.

>They insist on ugly black women. TV/film probably has the same issue.

It is and it's a tumblr era debate from like 2012 that was heavily mocked at the time. But as typical with this movement they just ignore critiques.

The idea is that they're fighting oppressive beauty standards which are an expression of whiteness. Pretty "black" people were allowed before, but only with minor black features. Thus we need to show as many ugly black people as possible.

I saw a parody of this where an artist took a pretty black person and kept drawing them more exaggerated and ugly to satisfy the sjw crowd. They ended up looking like a racist caricature.

It’s trolling. They weaponize blacks against whites. The behavior jews encourage is so appalling that any whites would naturally be disgusted and if they react against it they are labeled racists and jews win. Ugly and often fat black women are the chief tools they currently use. They were easy to manipulate. If you can’t be pretty, skinny white girl at least you can troll “the chuds” with your appearance. Females are normally very appearance conscious obviously but not these creatures.

I watched the show and let me (sort of) TL;DR it for you.

>ayylmaos make holograms, then abuse them
>holos rebel, kill organic makers, turn planet in to some sort of singularity
>holos are hyper racist towards organics
>finally decide to make a holograpic emissary to see if organics have changed or are different than their original creators
>makes the most book smart, social retard they can, intentionally make her fugly because of organic hate biases
>tell her straight to her holographic face that she's defective, flawed, broken, and made wrong
>her program malfunctions and degrades after watching a cadet get killed saving her friend, followed by another cadet using psionic powers to make the hostile aliens heads explode, because she has no programming to deal with trauma
>original SAM dies
>EMH convinces the holos to rebuild her matrix and let him raise and teach her, thus allowing her to build up life experience and prepare for death and trauma and not get caught in a self destructive loop (like how he did after saving harry but letting the other ensign die + all of SAM 1.0)
>holos comply because they're big fans of the EMH, save SAM 1.0's memories
>Doctor spends 17 years raising her on the time dilated hologram "planet"
>holos give her back the 200ish days worth of memories from SAM 1.0
>SAM 2.0 is now able to process the trauma, doesn't glitch out, quits being a sperglord supreme because the doctor raised some sense in to her

There you go. If you need a tl;dr of that - she was made wrong on purpose, broke due to bad programming, died, was rebuilt & raised by the doctor for 17 years in a holographic singularity, given her old memories back, and is no longer an autistic sperg retard, having been taught common sense from the EMH.

Since you didn't watch the show, I'd like to point out that the show intentionally shits on her, in writing and visuals. It is an intentional background gag. Picrel, this isn't an edit. It's literally how they transitioned the scene. One of the best shows recently to do 'subtle' visual storytelling/gags, rather than rely on shitty dialogue.

It wasn't as bad as it sounded. It was referencing a lot of VOY and the EMH's own struggles with his program, and the death of his own holo daughter once before, and the death of everyone he loved and cared about. He talks about how, since he's a hologram, he remembers everyone and everything that's happened in perfect clarity, as if it only just occurred. And because of this, and having to have such fresh and vivid memories of everyone he loves living and dying on him, ended up making him distant and bitter, because he didn't want to lose anyone else he cared about. He also explains that's why he's only grown close to Nala (the captain/principal of the academy), because her species is essentially biologically immortal due to how long lived they are (think guinan's people, but fun loving hoarding space gypsies) and she can relate to his struggles. The doctor raises her like a daughter, and when she comes back with him, she's not an autistic sperglord rock eater. She's mellowed out and her friends get sad that she's "normal" now, but are just happy to have her back. Even if she isn't giving people the glorious gift of a toothbrush, because it's 'neat' that organics need to use them. She was very toned down and mellowed out, replacing her 'tism with a bit of the EMH's snarky humor instead, for the last 2 episodes and it set her up nicely for S2 to be a normal "person".

The show might get shit on a lot, but it was very respectful towards the EMH and of voyager. Nothing like LD & the psycho kims, if that's what you're worried about. Given that the EMH always has the best scenes and plots, it makes me wonder if Picardo has it written in his contracts somewhere that they can't fuck the EMH's character over. I love the guy and he never disappoints.

You put more thought into that writeup than the entire writers’ room did into the concept.

>made intentionally broken because racism.exe
>dies from emotional blue screen
>reinstalled by space Doc for 17 years of homeschool therapy
>patched to v2.0 with “less tism” update

I get what they were *trying* to do - EMH grappling with immortality and memory and grief is actually solid sci‑fi territory. That’s classic Trek material. The problem is it’s wrapped around NuTrek-tier Tumblr allegory where the metaphor has the subtlety of a photon torpedo.

Also the idea that hyper-advanced hologram Nazis whose entire planet is a singularity factory can’t just… debug trauma handling is peak modern writing. Instead it takes 17 years of Doctor Dad daycare in a time bubble. Okay.

I’ll give them this: using the EMH as the emotional backbone is the only smart choice they made. If Picardo’s carrying it, it’s at least watchable. But the premise still reads like fanfic someone wrote after rewatching “Real Life” while half-asleep.

Appreciate the sacrifice, OP. You’ve fallen on the sword so we don’t have to.

Actually, they were pretty direct with it. Even had a montage of the EMH on voyager, etc. It's stupid that they couldn't fix the trauma loop, but at least they didn't pull it out of their ass. As I said in >>218882993 they were really respectful towards the EMH and VOY's source material. Sure, it's no holodeck schizo ranting while his friends sat with him, but it was an honest, loving gesture from the doctor. Picardo does indeed hard carry. But yeah, the writing style is still 'modern'.

>>218883546
She saved her friends twice via super fast hacking/reprogramming.

>>218883658
The trailers didn't do the show any favors, that's for sure. Like you'd never get that the fem'hadar was actually just worf with a suicidal sense of humor. The great thing about the show is that the bar for nutrek is set so low that it's probably the best nutrek show they've produced. But again, the bar isn't very high at all.

I think that's mostly out of spite by the write staff. There was some drama with her casting, because SAM was originally supposed to be more cold and distant and xenophobic, but the actress didn't like that and said they needed to change her character, and kuntman seemed to to agree, because he made the writers change her character. And then she became a hyperactive autist constantly at the butt of the joke until the last 2 eps as SAM 2.0 when she's no longer a sperglord ultra and is more mellow and collected and has dry, sarcastic humor like the EMH.

Go watch VOY. Yes, that's an option, but he doesn't consent to it. Janeway & the crew did it to him a few times and every time he forcibly lost memories, it was treated as a horrid assault on him, because he felt violated by it.

>>218885449
Genesis is actually pretty hot, but she reminds me of Lagoona from monster high, so I'm biased.

>>218885525
He never disappoints, truly. Even when he's not as the EMH, he gives fantastic performances. I wish he had been around longer on SGA, but Tapping was contractually obligated for an additional stargate season and he got written off, but damn was he good.

>>218885534
I don't understand that shit, either. You're asking the wrong guy.
