What maketh us

i was recently watching this program

i was left with many questions and themes

the episode was called planet of doom for any of you out there who would like to check the source

and aside from touching on time travel
and the implications
and the nit pickings of said mode of transport


it got me thinking on what maketh us

and it was explored through the medium of possible worlds
but it got me thinking what makes us
and without going to much into the butterfly effect

 how much would or could an effect have on us
like imagine if we went to different schools lived in an adjacent house
or area
how profound might that be

but also another thing that was brought up
was that knowledge is power
though many people think it is money
but yes knowledge is power
and
in the episode doom

who has turned the statue of liberty into a statue of himself in this other time stream
has gone back in time
and used his fore knowledge
to make sure the hulk never becomes so
and tony stark never becomes iron man
and he has them actually working for him to have dominion over the world


and he surmises that the power maketh the man not the man maketh the powers
and without their powers they are just human

and his worry is thor one because he has power but he also has the same knowledge as he
since he was outside of the time reversal

but he has been preparing for him

and if we step outside of the marvel universe for a minute

might that be perhaps a similar scenario for us
not the time travel bit
but being uprooted from knowledge
and therefore our power

and without knowledge we can see the scales could be turned
like lions being synonymous with coward
or africa with a dearth of history knowledge or wealth

and even in the episode
you saw doom wearing a modified suit made for him by iron man
yet iron man did not have a suit

and he made bruce banner
fear the element that would make him the powerful hulk


and that knowledge is power he even was present at some of the scenes of their victories
or gaining powers
and he stepped in as if he was saving them but it was quite the opposite

and it made me want to study history
but also question how else i could of ended up

for like captain america he kept him in the ice he was frozen in as a sculpture above his throne
akin to the story of damocles

but with the avengers who were not in servitude they were renegades
but muted to an extent

such as spider man was named slinger and he had no spider powers
but used machinery
and falcon was still a tech genius but his design was different
and hawkeye was the same but more serious than comedic

in the end the surmised the man maketh the powers

i will leave that for our deliberation

A sanctum of knowledge

so if i asked you where to find a doctor
or a dentist
or meat
or a mind altering substance
you could without google

but then if i asked you to point the way to the griots
or the custodians of contemporary or otherwise knowledge
or if i asked you the location of where your money is printed could you do so without research

and does this not equate to imbalance
if one can readily point and lead the way to vice but not virtue










^^ this got to me
where is our prioritization
and this is the imbalance
so we recount these logos but not even the trees in our local park



so where do you find these well of autonomous knowledge
people outside of
boxes
and ditches

these philosophers and architects of  lived futures

some would claim university but you would not have found malcolm x and buddha there

one could say the library
but i did a whole piece about the debacle at a certain library
of certain contemporary libraries

and libraries are genuinely seen as being devoid of conversation
and do you just interrupt one engrossed in  days past and present re imagined

then i ask where would you find me

and then their other suggestions like events but like with these so called centres of intellectualism
it is not always the case like said concert
but what for those anti capitalists
being proposed their elixir is behind a door of capital
kind of defeats the point or will at best deter it

then lastly there are the bookstores

and there are the attempts to create havens of our own

schooling is not education aka neet

welcome to nhk 

is about a neet

which stands for not in education

employment or training

and this what is the grim picture for some that makes people hold up schools or schooling

as if it is the only way

this brings a complex in many individuals

from being looked down 

to being pressured into schooling

for some schooling is a daunting task full of monotony 

and lack of an outlet for self expression and creativity

which has them fussing over trivialities

and trying to find their own with little information whilst being herded

with the pressures to do something anything 

to be occupied

because

yet betrand russell would have something different to say about that 

and following russells work neet is the epitome of ^^^ idleness

and ideness is seen as laziness as a disease 

shunned and abhored

but he argues 

it is from where greatness is derived

and moments of brilliance 

and i would add where finally get you bearings

as i talked about the silence recently

idleness is a thing many do not have or want to have

they always want to be occupied

and with these polarized opposites the neet finds themselves

in between the cusp of greatness and the rod of the shepherd 

for if you ask many people when is the last time they took a walk with no aim they would probably reply

yet albert camus 

and people forget that their needs time for the application of growth

seen in infants who spend their time absorbing info from their surroundings before they eventually try to influence it

the thing with the word neet nobody is really a neet 

but it is more so in relation to generals

such as education

public not autodidact 

and public training not private

but the thing is even if you are reading books like a chain smoker 

others will look down on you and even call it frivolous for your lack of income 

for most education is to get income

hands up how many times have you heard that question and felt you need to defend it

and for these neets they are limbo 

being swayed like palm trees in a tropical storm

and being showered in showers of self loathing

but people change tunes at success and others will get encouragement of your time in the wilderness

and in closing 

for al the neets^^^^^
