Kinda wack saying Picard’s trauma isn’t comparable when it clearly effected him quite significantly.

Picard was Borg for what, a day? Seven was assimilated as a child and was rescued after a decade and a half? Two?? Hardly even comparable.

That’s the thing. Picard has a trauma. She lost her identity, childhood, sense of belonging. It’s entirely different.
Like Bane said, “you merely adopted the borg. I was born in it, molded by it. I didn’t anything of humanity until I was already a (wo)man.”

That's her initial trauma, yes. There's layers. Like an ogre. She uncovers more as she regains her humanity.

I love this autocorrect.

I always cry when I peal the layers of an ogre.

Picard spent his childhood on an old timey vineyard in France, playing and laughing and picking grapes. Seven spent hers in a maturation tank until she was big enough to be a soldier.

Just because the trauma is there doesn't mean the trauma is the same. It definitely had an effect on him, but to say that its the same as what Seven went through is ridiculous.

Still, you’d expect someone who saw it happen to Picard to phrase it better. That’s assuming it’s a direct quote.

Took the words out of my mouth. I can understand him having PTSD but regaining his humanity shouln’t have been particularly challenging for him.
