"Oh my god, i've created a monster!" is a famous quote from Frankenstein lore, but if you look at today's society, and societies of the past, you could directly relate this statement from mary shelly's masterpiece to the mistakes of that society. During the Manhattan Project American scientists were devising a new weapon to fight against the Axis powers in WWII, they created the hydrogen and atomic bombs. This bomb was later used in the Pacific theater against the islands Hiroshima and Nagasaki, of warring nation Japan. This coincides with Frankenstien's creation of him trying to create something for thee good of humanity, but ended up creating a "monster", just like the A bombs.
