“The Borg is an alien race, a collection of species functioning as drones of the collective, or the hive. The Borg forces other species into the collective and connect them to ‘the hive mind’. The act is called ‘assimilation’. The individual is lost, there is only the collective. The Borg is fictitious, of course. Or, is it?”
