I never thought about it before, but: With Transwarp conduits across the entire galaxy, how is it that they just 'recently' came to the notice of races in the Alpha Quadrant? For that matter, with a form of travel only secondary to the 'Mycelieal Network' (ugh, Discovery......😅) they should have assimilated most of the galaxy by 'now', relatively speaking.
In the beginning we were introduced to the Borg as a leaderless, impersonal mass. Individual units were interchangeable, redundant parts of the whole. There were no weak points to assail. They were relentless and unstoppable, adding the resources of anyone who opposed them to their own. They were scary, in ways no other antagonist had been. Then they added a "Borg Queen" and we went right back to "All units relate. Norman coordinate." There's only one "Norman." And as in "I, Mudd" that became their weakness.
Species 8472 proved they could wipe the floor with the Borg, but they probably weren't the most dangerous because they could be reasoned with. The borg could not be reasoned with.
Have you read the novelization of _Star Trek: Insurrection_ ? It really delves into the lore of the Ba'ku/Son'a in a fascinating way which I haven't seen covered in other ST related channels.
You paint with a broad brush. The Dominion was largely opposed to diversity and they were easily more powerful than the federation and pretty close to the borg. Their artificial soldiers provided peace for the citizens who were ruled by glorious liquifying gods that lived in a big homogenious puddle. The Organians were obviously all homogenious and towered above the diversity tribes like glorious nonliquifying, but ever brightening gods who brought peace to the multicultural rabble of genocidal klingons and federation communists. The Voth could squash the Federation like shrews and they were so homogenious that even their scales were identically colored. And obviously species 8472 was as homogenous and correct thinking as a biological species could get and were wise enough to forgive the communist federation after they unleashed their genocidal nanoprobes. The federation did not grant the same love to the Borg when they infected Hugh, so obviously species 8472 is morally as well as spiritually superior to the vile diversity of the Federation communist lesbian space witches. So yeah. No idea what I'm trying to say here. I'm really stoned right now.

I think I'm subscribed to your Star Wars channel. Nice to see you getting into other franchises!

I always wondered if The Borg and The Dominion ever encountered eachother, borders of Delta/Gamma Quadrant...

Meanwhile The Borg got their a$$es kicked by low tier Cybusmen (Cybermen in the comic Assimilation Squared.
Lol L0RE in the thumbnail😂😂
Just discovered your channel yesterday. I am really enjoying your informative Star Trek content keep up the good work :D
I hated when guinan said thousands of centuries. Just use a number of years or millenia. Over a hundred thousand years. Over 100 millenia.
Borg? Sounds Swedish.
Definitely not Swedish…!
Thousands of centuries old is not correct is it? At least there is no canon source that they would be that ancient?

So the Federation is a woke paradise?
Nah, that would be the Borg. They do not allow for any thoughts that are aren't approved by them
The Borg are anti-DEI. It literally says so in the video's title.
@@generaljimmies3429so communism is borg
I really wish yall would stop using “woke” wrong 🙄
