Or the many philosophers who've said pretty much the same thing.

Plato said what you claim. That is why Plato said we need dictatorship.

Aristotle said rubbish.

He said,
If I "can't know," then I can't know that I "can't know." Your and Plato's claim refutes itself.

Not everybody subscribes to the emotional rhetoric of Immanuel Kant. Aristotle taught the world was knowable,
and has been more influential than Kant could ever dream.
