I speak for the Borg (idea)

As an interesting counterpoint, the usage of the 'we' expression, as in "We are the Borg. Resistance is futile." This relates back to feudal monarchies, where the king/queen/ruling body would often refer to themselves as 'we'.

Irony would have it that low-technology humanoids would use a collective term to refer to themselves in the singular, while highly adaptive cybernetic beings from the future would use it to refer to a collective.
