I mean... What's wrong with assimilation other than it being forced on people?

Edit: Seriously. I'd love to see real opinions on the idea of borg assimilation, assuming that it's not forced. Obviously forcing it is evil, but what about the inherent nature of the process, what it does, and what happens to your mind?

“Covid 19 is back, the Zeta variant is highly transmissible, but without any real side effects. the only way to ensure humanity’s survival is to destroy it by assimilating it”

“Assimilate today, we will all be the same. No more worry about being different. Being a different race, a different gender or a different sexual preference. We will be simply Borg instead. United and as one. Resistance is futile”

“If we all assimilate, we can cut CO2 emissions by 70%! Assimilate today, save the earth”

Why did the borg go back in time to the 2060s? Why not go back in time 2023, when people are dealing with the cost of living and lack or access to basic essentials. The borg would enslave those they want to and prevent first contact.
