ОтветитьI have to disagree with the last one- it is taken a bit out of context. I think the good idea from it is that the rulers (guardians) should be poor and have no money. If they are rich, they become corrupt. Secondly, the producers are the only ones with money. There is no money for anyone else- only the people that produce food.
To my mind- this is an extremely Marxist take and really prefigures a lot of what Marx was trying to say. The idea of a leader being from the lowest class of people means that a government works for the people. The producers being the only ones to have money means that workers control the means of production.
When you lay this form of government and social class out as a hierarchy, it adds a connotation that Plato was trying to attack. This is not a caste system. Instead, I conceptualize it as different categories of people each doing a specific role to maintain a civilization, and no one role is better than the other.
Read the War of the Ancients by Aldinon Exilus. It's an ode to Plato.
ОтветитьPeople are taking the 'Noble Lie' criticism out of context all the time against Plato.
Read it along the context of the whole book,
"is it not better to tell the children the false FIRST?"
is not the same as
"is it not better to tell the children the false ONLY?"
The former being the original so-called 'Noble Lie'
Plato good ideas: ........ maybe something he talked about and was never wrote?
Plato bad ideas: literally everything he wrote
I've still yet to find a better rivalry than Plato and Diogenes. Their battles are epic
Ответить👍
ОтветитьWhat I do not get is, in his theory, we are supposed to figure out the Form using logic. For example the form of a table based on all the essential characteristics that tables have, such as having a flat surface and supporting legs. But, how can we determine the Forms of truly subjective concepts like beauty and love? Or do we not need to ‘know’ what those essential characteristics are and just ‘believe’ there exists an Ideal love or beauty? But if this is the case then what is the whole point of this theory?
ОтветитьDiogenes goated
ОтветитьChallenge to Plato: How exactly do you "Know' that the ideas inspired by Reason (In order to understand the Forms) are accurate?
ОтветитьPlato quote: The rich have become so asocial that they would rather throw their possessions into the sea than lend aid to the needy; while the poor would less gladly stumble upon a fortune of their own than to seize it from the rich- 😊
ОтветитьI see the horse not the horseness, Plato!
ОтветитьQuestion is: `Who decides what is bad?`
ОтветитьYeah so he saw the other dimensions... what's wrong with that?
ОтветитьYeah so he saw the other dimensions... what's wrong with that?
Ответитьthe question arises. now did he come up with these ideas or have they always been there just was the first to connect dots. after all a philosopher is just another observer of the world but for ppl. i wish we could know what life was like before writing , you can’t run before you walk even though the actions are still there
ОтветитьWe’ve become smarter at using a stick but unfortunately, we’re still still monkeys trying to figure ourselves out.
ОтветитьHis beard looks like giant teeth
ОтветитьI don’t understand why “Forms” was a bad idea
Ответитьgoo goo ga ga to you too.
ОтветитьToday, I learned how you’re supposed to pronounce “Plato”.
Ответитьwomen = children bad Idea? 🤔
ОтветитьWhy is "Women = Children" listed among his bad ideas?
Ответитьso he was pretty much behind every bad idea we deal with today
ОтветитьI never could understand philosophy. not that I don't get it, I think it's stupidity at its worst
ОтветитьHe's right about women, the bible backs this up too
ОтветитьPicturing Diogenes throwing that plucked chicken down in front of everyone is just hilarious. Did he catch and pluck the chicken himself prior or did he ask a chef for a spare one? 🤣
Ответить😊
ОтветитьThree groups...producers, military and leaders. See a pattern in same of America? Yep living the noble lie ,folks.
ОтветитьExcluding Christ; Plato had the greatest mind of any man, and most complete understanding of existence.
ОтветитьThe Republic is an allegory for the soul (psyche).
ОтветитьWhat the authors of this video argues against is not strictly Plato's ideas, but the construct of Platonism. Plato wrote dialoges, or this is what has been preserved; mainly with Socrates being interpreted as advocating Plato's philospohy. Of course, what this character is saying in one dialogue is not always consistent with what the character of Socarates says in other dialogues. Besides, there are so many instances of symbolism and irony in the lines given by 'Socrates', which makes the construction of a unified Platonic doctrine further difficult. Yet many thinkers still prefers this simplified and one-dimensional version of Platonism, rather than a more disorted version that is more true to his writngs.
ОтветитьBut why did he think there were forms? What proof did he have?
ОтветитьMy favorite idea so far by him is the Parable of the sun
ОтветитьThe philosopher king idea is a bad idea its basically a glorified dictatorship:
Ответитьi love youre videos you are so good at uitleggen
Ответитьhahahaha sooo funny i love plato
ОтветитьHuman behavior flows from three main sources: desire, emotion, and knowledge.
Plato
What Plato truly believed about the noble lie is unknowable. All we can do is try to come to terms with why we disagree. It forces us to say that some things are more important than being effective.
ОтветитьPlato's republic starts wih the question what is justice ?? And throughout the book answer was searched. But still it is called the ideal state, philosopher king etc.
I think Plato was misunderstood by learned folk
His invention of that clay like substance Plato is pretty cool
ОтветитьVery good very interesting
ОтветитьAll are terrible
