Apparently the Borg were wrong and resistance isn’t futile after all.
The borg were science fiction. In reality, government gets it’s power through obedience NOT consent. Widespread failure to obey usually ends with edicts being quietly dropped.
I still don’t understand why conservatives care so much about legality and and the lefts edicts. There is an obvious solution: noncompliance. I suspect its because the more politically oriented “conservatives” are really less concerned about freedom than compliance when its their turn to hold the whip.
