minus-squareshutz@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up18arrow-down1·2 years ago physical disability: that might just get you euthanized. limited resources: again, I see euthanasia as a possible Borg solution. loneliness: ever heard of being lonely in a crowd? mental health: again, a malfunctioning drone would likely just get euthanized. Some of these points assume the Borg we saw outside of Voyager, because Voyager really neutered the Borg in so many ways.

There’s nothing better than the feeling of being alone in the house, at least for a little while.
