What do you think of the Borgachev?
They give me red scare "Everyone under communism wears grey and has no individuality" propaganda. "Why do you resist us? We only wish to increase your quality of life"
Although personally, they remind me of what it's like working under capitalism.
I think they were primarily concieved of as an antagonist to the Federation. Here you have a civilization with hyper advanced technology, that does all of its best work when dealing with others through diplomacy, facing off against an enemy with even better technology that cannot be reasoned with.
