Life under eternal repuke rule or Life as a Borg? Somehow, I now find Borg life more appealing, even though the Borg are similar in some philosophies (forced unity)...

At least Borgs have universal health coverage. They also act as a collective, rather than through the "me-ism" which permeates the repuke philosophy.

When a Borg gets injured, fellow Borg dance up to him, remove some valuable circuits, and then the Borg self-destructs into dust. Sounds typically repuke in philosophy... :-( But I agree with you on the other points! :-)

Half a dozen of the other. What's the general point in asking us to choose between hive mind or collective mentality? :shrug:
