      Looks at the Borg system and loss of individuality … the individual is taken care of, biological needs are met, they are made stronger, you get personal shields for protection, your health is taken care of automatically, your senses are augmented and made stronger and more perceptive, you can interface with any digital or biological system, you are in constant contact with the whole community, you live in a community of equals like yourself.

      Looks at the system we currently live in

        Hmm… how important is individuality to me, really? Sounds like the borg implants could produce the serotonin that my brain refuses to make on its own.

          They say that was implemented because of the human threat but it’s mostly a Voyager thing. I prefer it before they kinda retconned it.

        It’s an equal society but it’s not a free society.

    The Borg did it.

    They actually found a way to just inject it straight into your veins.
