On the other hand the superhero stood out from humanity, or the combination of godly blood and human blood could create the superhero with petulant disregard for other humans that were inferiorly attuned. Thus we find the misfortunes in battle among the Greeks when Achilles withdrawals, and the need to insure success by propitiations to Achilles. Achilles never cared if the Greeks as an entity were successful as long as he, himself, was successful.
Humans evolutionally succeeded because the one who discovered the sources of food,the one who determined how to store food for later use, the one who determined how to develop more effective tools for both endeavors, advanced the species in a common manner where each was equally contributory, and the myths developed were centered on this recognition, no matter individual status.
This can be seen in such films as Elysium, Divergent, The Maze Runner, The Hunger Games, et al. In these films people need to learn to come together in order to overcome the hierarchy imposed upon them. In these movies humans are united in a common need to each contribute individually in a united effort.

Misconceptions of Environmental Malfeasance
The UnUtopian Optimistthe “superhero” that our early stories of Paul Bunyans and Superman, and God-man somehow delivered us to a justice we don’t feel we are necessarily able to participate as strong individual selfs in a hierarchically structured framework. So we look for the hero to relieve the self from the hierarchy.

Misconceptions of Environmental Malfeasance
The UnUtopian OptimistMy fear is not of the black man who is treated as property but of the white man who thinks his freedom is his right to own property. These Americans who feel supplanted by those who subject them to laboring to support them, who then transfer that suppression to the confused idea that it is the black man who is doing the suppressing that will cause the chaos to come. No freedom can come from what one owns. Freedom can only come from not being owned.

The Mandela Need
Nobody wants instability. In an ant colony when the queen dies instability occurs and depending on the ant species and the manner that the species determines the successor, chaos can possibly become great enough to endanger the survival of the entire colony. I am no entomologist and have never perused insect sociability to any extent. But as a youth you could purchase these ant colonies encased in glass like an aquarium and you could observe the levels and channels of the inside of a colony. One of my elementary classmates obtained one, his mother began to freak over the possibility of the ants escaping into her kitchen and I inherited the colony when he sought someone to take it. As a result, I often follow scientific dialogue about ants. So I have studies done on eight of the 15,700 named ant species, it is suggested by some there might be an equal number of unnamed species. So what I am aware from studies of only eight species (and each of those have subspecies) is that while there are many common denominators, even within the subspecies there are slight differences in behavior, but the exact manner of replacing the queen is never the same. In none of the species I have any knowledge about, however, is there a queen-in-waiting. So depending on the manner and speed in which the subspecies replaces its queen, the duration of the instability becomes dependent,and at least in two of the subspecies I have familiarity with, the colony ceases to exist.
Weird Thoughts & Logical Conclusionsyesterday i posted an article on substack. I received a reply by Don Klemmencic and I would like to share a portion.
"The advocates of the ranked-choice ballot have been pursuing what I would call the low-road approach to the ranked-choice ballot: one state at a time--a painfully slow process. This is an emergency. We need to take the high road: Article 1, Section 4, Clause 1 of the U.S. Constitution gives Congress the power to make changes in our electoral process."
I, who have nothing, fears nothing, I, who has something, fears anyone else having as much as I have. Fear of something is ripe for distrusting minds shaped by political clubs to become a political cult. And a cult is always the means of the one who has had himself ripped into mental confusion to become confined into the chains of complete control.
