Straight from Matalas' mouth; I don't know how this is an argument.

@TerryMatalas
I am sure this has already been asked but Jurati’s Borg- are they from a offshoot timeline, or isolated splinter collective? Or is the whole Borg history changed by Jurati which would in turn affect Picard, Seven, Sisko, Hugh, Janeway’s personal histories?

@TerryMatalas
They’re an off-shoot from an alternate timeline that have stayed out of history’s way. They are not the the Borg. I’d imagine the real Borg are licking their wounds still in the Delta Quadrant after Alt Admiral Janeway poisoned them.

I won't spoil it for those who haven't watched yet. I know next week's episode is the finale.
This episode made my mouth drop. Stood up and gave a golf clap.
I just wanted a finale for this crew better than Nemesis. This episode gave us that. Part of me doesn't even want to watch next week because this was perfect.

If we can't discuss spoilers in an almost 90-page spoiler-marked thread after the episode has aired, I don't know where we can discuss them. ;)

Technically the queen is from an alternate timeline, like Matalas says - they are an offshoot from an alternate timeline. That's what I said in my previous post. They exist because of the alternate timeline queen - an offshoot. But I'm just saying those borg have existed in the Prime timeline since 2023. Some people seem to think they've been or are in an alternate timeline all this time. As Matalas said, they have stayed out of history's way.
 
Bad apple Captain of the Titan redeemed himself in death by calling Seven her actual name. I quite liked him in a few episodes this season

What hilariously awful timing for the show and characters to get misty about using Seven's Borg name.

Shaw should have called her Seven and then she said, "Yeah, screw that Borg bullshit, they literally just took over the damn fleet. I'm Commander Hansen now."

And regardless of whether it was meant to be a joke or something, her 'the robot' what... 30 seconds? 90 seconds? ... before really complicated that moment.

So if they've stayed out of history's way, where's the contradiction in Beverly's words?

So, he's basically adhering to the MCU's use of time travel theory in "Endgame" and Season 7 of "Agents of SHIELD". For me, I have yet to see any movie or television show use that theory with any good writing. And I'm including "Picard".

This episode made my mouth drop. Stood up and gave a golf clap. I just wanted a finale for this crew better than Nemesis. This episode gave us that. Part of me doesn't even want to watch next week because this was perfect.

I hope you're right for the sake of this series. But even if the finale prove to be first-rate, it will not erase my mixed feelings for this season and this series overall.

This makes no sense since, according to the story, they are the same Borg that assimilated Picard and implanted the "irumodic syndrome" hidden DNA program.
 
Finally got the multi decade payoff I realized I badly needed.

ha ha! You ARE correct. And I don't know who'd blunder into TrekBBS without expecting to get spoiled!
I stand corrected. :)
Twice this season, I logged out of my e-mail at work and saw a headline spoiling that week's episode of Picard which had just dropped that day. I was disappointed and just averse to spoiling it for others.
 
Nope.
They are Borg from another universe/timeline. It’s really clear in the story.
Per what the Vaadwaur said in Dragon's Teeth, the "real" Borg already existed in the late 15th century. The main Collective had already been assimilating the Delta Quadrant for more than 500 years by the time Jurati was assimilated by the alternate Queen in 2024. They are clearly meant to be and portrayed as a completely separate faction.
