The ancient greek philosophers were not liked by the old world rulers, but respected by those who sought to gain power. For instance, if you had money, you would want your son to study under one of them.

The greats were a 3 line succession. Truly remarkable.

The first was Socrates. He is known as the educator/teacher. Socrates taught you learn the answer by posing the question. It was a direct attack upon Sophistry. Question everything your betters tell you. (Think covid and our govt) Socrates wrote nothing down, but he had this amazing student, Plato.

Plato is the second. He would write the Greek Republic, which is his learning and expansion from Socrates. Plato had a student that is arguably the brightes of them all, but would have never existed without the tutelage of the previous 2, Aristotle.

Aristotle gave us the Trivium. Logic, rhetoric and grammar. He loved all 3, but most especially rhetoric. Rhetoric in its based AF form is impossible without a great command of logic and grammar.

I apoligize but will now get to my point.

Aristotle wrote that what seperates a civil society from barbarism is the protection of women and children. Look how people who hate western civilization care little about both today.

Sorry if there are a ton of typos. Sitting in front of a laundromat washing clothes late at night and wrote this on my cell.
