The "Sisko complains about 1960s racism as a space station commander in the 2300s" was cringe as hell, even when DS9 came out.
That's the thing the left just doesn't get. If you just have a good character that's also black (and not a swap), people didn't mind and you get to tick your inclusion checkbox. But they are impatient and radicals, so they can't help themselves. In the older stuff, the good outweighed the propaganda. But now there's no good left in Hollywood media. Their content is a negative value proposition. Of course people are checking out.
The only two scenes I remember from Fresh Prince are:
Uncle Phil being a good and honorable man in contrast to Will's deadbeat father
Will standing up for Carlton when the "Black" fraternity didn't want him because he didn't look or act the stereotype
That kind of self-awareness wouldn't be allowed today. The Boondocks was probably the last thing to get away with that kind of introspection. That was over a decade ago and arguably grandfathered in even then. The audience doesn't care if you ignore race. The audience didn't use to care if you looked at it thoughtfully. What the audience is sick of is surface-level, SJW writers penning their oppressions fantasies.
There are "studies" by (people who are invested in this topic) that """prove""" generational trauma exists and is really super bad.
I'll give you one guess on who those people are, what event they're talking about, and what narrative they're pushing. The fact that these "studies" are "peer reviewed" and published in academic journals shows how insane and corrupt the entire system is.

Yea I remember finding it odd that Sisko would complain about something from 500 years before he was born. Love the show but that seemed odd
Essentially the idea is that black people have suffered such a gross indignity that they will carry it with them forever.
And many do and will.

I'm guessing they're the same tribe underwriting the slave ships
It's odd to me how polish people have the ability move on since partitions and WW2 but somehow blacks cant move on from slavery.
