In Star Trek The Next Generation, the relentless Borg collective travelled through space to assimilate various civilisations into the single Borg collective. “Resistance is Futile” was the answer to cries of defiance by the civilisations being assimilated. Similarly, the march of technology is doing the same to our own civilisation, breaking all norms and borders towards enveloping the world. Perhaps what is important is having the resilience to cope with the changes being brought by technology, and being able to adapt quickly.
