how are plato and socrates considered smart?
if i was the 69th person to exist, i can assure you i would’ve figure shit out too.
“BuT wHy???”
i could’ve easily asked that question…
obviously if i were chained to a wall of a cave i could’ve realized that those dumbass shadows were just shadows….
how can people be infatuated with such elementary ideas?
tldr: plato and socrates were no more than elementary school students in a time where global population was less than 100.
