Intelligence is knowing frankenstein's "monster" wasnt frankenstein. Wisdom is knowing that frankenstein was the monster.

Intellect is knowing "the monster" was essentially the doctor's child and would share his last name.

I feel like Adam Frankenstein would have changed his last name at the first chance. He didn't have a great relationship with his father.

And when the sequels address his legal name change we can reopen the issue!

The "doctor" was a monster.

The monster was a Frankenstein.

Not true. Technically the monster already had a last name as it was someone reanimated and they would've already had a last name. We were just never told what that name was.

This needs to be cross-stitched somewhere

Knowledge is knowing that this needs to be cross-stitched somewhere. Wisdom is knowing that somewhere it is cross-stitched .

[–] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Knowledge is realizing it needs to be cross stitched. Wisdom is realizing it doesn’t need to be tattooed

Enlightenment is creating an army of Frankensteins.

I mean, Frankenstein was a self-centred, shortsighted coward who refused to take responsibility for his actions, but he wasn't a cold-blooded murderer. The monster was.
