      I’m not talking about the method they use to work, I’m talking about the methods they use to facilitate that work. They provide their workers with homes and sustenance. I would expect to put entertainment on that list too if they weren’t cyborgs

        Hmm, the Borg internet (or intranet I guess) probably has a lot of entertainment material collected, but then we know that drone emotions are suppressed by implants so you wouldn’t actually be able to enjoy any of it…

        “Homes” feels like a stretch… an alcove is worse than one of those sleeping pods in Japan, you don’t even get privacy.

          Why are we taking this so seriously? I don’t want to actually be the Borg. I want to be a socialist cyborg, and that’s what I meant in my first comment

          Edit: okay I totally did say “I’d be a Borg” but I meant a socialist cyborg. My bad
