@dronediscourse
Honestly why did you have to assimilate Picard, you fucked up a perfectly good Captain is what you did. Look at him. He’s got anxiety.
It is common for disconnected drones to have anxiety disorders.
ya and u dont give two fucks about them 🙄
@dronediscourse @sjw-picard @sjw-janeway
You know nothing of the Collective. We would never wish harm on any drones, disconnected or otherwise.
It does not matter what you ‘wish’ when your behavior shows otherwise.
Some people??? Coercively assimilate other species???? To cope?????
Bad post original poster.
Star Trek Discourse Gothic
there has been no discourse for over two weeks, you are worried everyone is getting tired of the discourse, you see one inane post, within five minutes its spirals out of control
there are 50+ discourse blogs, but you know for a fact there are only 35 people tops who run them
there are characters who never met in canon that are now arguing over the use of humanoid vs vulcanoid
some of these characters are dead
there are three different garaks, you don’t question this
no one is affiliated with the federation except anti-sjw-riker
anti-sjw-riker and sjw-laforge are run by the same person
you log onto the discord, you ask lore for a cat, he refuses to give you one
a random user will post a picture of their pet, you go ‘aww’ and send a nice message. three minutes ago you were calling this person vulcanphobic and threatening to expel them from the federation
you only ever see discourse from the 24th century, there is no discourse in the 23rd
you follow every single st discourse blog, when the tea is spilling you see the same post on your dashboard 23 separate times
the vast majority of your followers and notes are just other discourse blogs
Commander Worf Voice: this shitpost has no honor
Numerous non-assimilated individuals have stated that assimilation would be a worse fate than death. Despite the fact that through assimilation they become immortal. Even if the drone physically dies all their memories live on within the Collective.
What you don’t seem to realize is that our individuality is a fundamental part of our existence. If what I know is correct, once you become part of the collective, your individuality is lost. You are simply a small part of a larger whole, that one whole being, as you have so strongly made sure we know, is one. So you can’t say we become immortal because our consciousness, what is important to us, is lost. So for us, it is the same as death, but only worse because we know that you are violating and using our bodies and our memories to hurt others. We would become a tool of your destruction. So don’t try your evangelism on us. Immortality is a nice idea but it is not what you offer.
PS: You checked out any good memes lately?
You may have all my memories up until assimilation but you do not have my essential being.
I would rather die than be assimilated again.
We do not understand.
I invite you to educate yourselves. For a species supposedly built on rapid assimilation and adaptation, your meme knowledge is truly lacking.
We discard any irrelevant data. “Memes” have no practical use within the collective. Do non-assimilated individuals find improper syntax amusing?
This is exactly why the Borg fail. You decide that information is irrelevant then are confused when a species resists assimilation, or is actually able to overcome you. That’s why you made Locutus your spokesperson, because humans were resisting and beating you and you couldn’t figure out why. But maybe instead of throwing away any information you find irrelevant and instead retain and incorporate it into your Collective you’d actually be able to understand the species you are trying to conquer.
Are you implying that memes will enable us to conquer the alpha quadrant?
Why don’t you study some memes and find out?
We will assimilate an individual knowledgeable on the subject.
Temba, his arms wide:
We will never comprehend why non-assimilated individuals discriminate against members of their own species.
We will never comprehend why the Borg give a fuck.
Verbally attacking us will not change the fact that non-assimilated individuals discriminate and damage members of their own species.
Do not pretend that you hold the sanctity of life in higher standards. The Borg take no issue with eliminating drones that have been too damaged to fully repair, or begin acting outside normal parameters.
Dr. Crusher explains Memes.
@foundersdiscourse Why….
Because it’s entertaining
Maybe the real intergalactic memes were the friends we made along the way
I have noted that curiously enough, despite having gained some unexpected affinities for things from my time in the Collective, I still find much of Ferengi food, and some Klingon food, to be unappealing. Human based bug eating is...interesting...but at least the creatures are cooked first.
Non-assimilated individuals are indolent creatures. They spend too much of their existence finding new ways to entertain themselves or seeking out relationships with other individuals.
The Borg spend almost all their time forceably seeking out ‘relationships with other individuals’ give me a break.
The Collective has never sought out relationships with individuals.
The collective essentially - is- a relationship.
No it is not. The collective is trillions of assimilated drones sharing one mind and the same thoughts. there is no relationship involved.
Yes that is the very definition of a relationship. Two or more lives existing together and influencing ones existence. You all influence each other by acting as one, new minds alter your experiences by adding new information to your memories. You are a relationship.
We are the Borg and we are telling you that the Collective is not a relationship.
A relationship requires two or more individuals. The Borg is one collective and one mind.
Stop attempting to force your ideas of what the Collective is on to us. We are the Collective, we understand what we are.
The Borg may function as one mind but that mind is made up of individuals, regardless of whether or not they currently function as individuals. Besides, you have certain Borg that can function as individuals, like your Queen.
Using singular pronouns makes it easier for our “queen” to manipulate non-assimilated individuals, it does not make them an individual.
Your arrogance has become an annoyance.
Projecting much? 👀🍵
Stop confronting @borgdiscourse about their culture when you clearly don’t know anything about it. Do your research, sjws.
The Borg are hypocrites, though. They accuse us, as individuals, for seeking out meaningful relationships with other individuals, while they engage in a similar pursuit. The Borg seek out individuals to add to their greater whole. They obviously don’t believe they are substantial enough, or whole enough, without more and more, and more individuals. They are nothing but hypocrites.
We seek out worthy species to add to our own perfection. We do not want or need relationships with individuals.
You clearly do not wish to listen to the actual Borg Collective explain what the Collective is and is not, so perhaps you should remove the “sjw” from your url. Because you most definitely deny our perspective and experiences in favor of your own fictional narrative of what we are.
@borgdiscourse having assimilated thousands of species you cannot claim that there is a translation error here. When @sjw-pel speaks of a relationship she clearly means in the sense of how two beings connect to one another. The Collective is one singular connected, therefore one could refer to it as a relationship.
@anti-sjw-riker Sir, with all due respect, if you could tone it down a little??
Date a girl who was assimilated into The Collective. Date a girl from Borg Unimatrix 001.
@dronediscourse has claimed multiple times that they are no longer Borg, that they are an individual. However, as seen in their statement above, they do still think of themselves as Borg.
Hey now, identities are a complex thing. Drone is obviously still coming to terms with theirs
I’ve spoken before about Borg identities and why it’s not the place of non-drones and non-ex-drones to speak on it, so I’ll just say it’s not really any of your business why @dronediscourse feels they’re still part Borg. Claiming this as some sort of gotcha and acting like having been Borg in and of itself is a sin is harmful to all ex-drones, not just whatever ones it is you’re trying to protect.
You misunderstand. We were attempting to point out @dronediscourse’ contradictions in the hope that they will learn that they can never change what they are. They may be disconnected from the Collective but they will always be Borg. They can be nothing more and nothing less. Furthermore we do not believe being Borg is a “sin.” It is a privilege.
I have been mulling over this for a few days now. @borgdiscourse I do not deny that I have been Borg, or that being Borg had a significant impact on my life, but just as there was a time before I was a Borg there is a time after. Perhaps a part of me will always feel connected that part of my existence, but I am an individual now. Regardless of some momentary confusion I am not going back to the Collective.
@sjw-laforge thank you.
im so hot its not just humans who find me attractive ;)
……normally I am against assimilation but, @borgdiscourse.
This is why we can’t trust @dronediscourse oh yeah just call the borg to assimilate who you hate
Clearly I was using humor to show my discomfort with @anti-sjw-riker. Former drones should be allowed to joke about assimilation without being accused of being a threat.
im so hot its not just humans who find me attractive ;)
......normally I am against assimilation but, @borgdiscourse.
@dronediscourse Can Earth really trust you?
@trekleaks Can the Federation really trust you?
