a: The establishment ~
b: the Borg

What:

"Right, the minority has now become the majority. What's even more interesting though, is that when we were kids, we thought we were trying to subvert the establishment, but you can't do that, because once you become large enough, you become the establishment, you are no longer cool. It's a big mind-fuck. The establishment is like the Borg, it assimilates anything that is trying to be used to subvert it."
