One thing that is funny to me is that the "le racisms!" they always focus on are the garb they were and the way they speak...which is basically just how most Africa-Africans sound.
Interesting that the never mention the whole conflict of the episode is that the king sees Tasha Yar, a blonde White woman, and decides he doesn't want his current wife queen stank booty anymore. So he just grabs Yar and transports out and claims her as his new wife. It's amusing to me that I never here these soy lefty actors winging about that aspect.
As everyone else has pointed out it's an embarrassingly shitty episode but not because of the "stereotypes" but because it is poorly written and frankly kind of boring. But no one seemed to have a problem with the episode of Irish-Aliens that were transported on the Enterprise to a new colony...where the men are all drunks and they are kept in the cargo bay sleeping in piles of hay next to their livestock. I wonder why that doesn't raise any of these performative activist's ire?
