Humanity was never the Borg's Real Target

from Lore Reloaded Hosted by Lore Reloaded

What if we've misunderstood the Borg's greatest invasion from the very beginning? This video explores a theory suggesting that humanity was not the Borg's real target, connecting significant moments in Star Trek, including their first encounter with the Enterprise-D, the assimilation of Jean-Luc Picard, and the warning from Q2: "Don't provoke the Borg." **Episodes Discussed:** • TNG: "Q Who" • TNG: "The Best of Both Worlds, Parts I & II" • VOY: "Q2" #StarTrek #TheBorg #QContinuum #JeanLucPicard #TheNextGeneration #Voyager #Wolf359 #LoreReloadedLore Reloaded is represented by Digital Fox Talent.
