Our founders didn't want a democracy because it was impossible to get everyone together to debate and vote. That's why they chose a republic.

Socrates thought he should lead because he was the smartest. He hate democracy because it's a beauty pageant. We had complete idiots like Reagan and trump in office and no one seems to care how much damage they did as long as they feel good about it.

I teach AI how to think. Could you have proved free speech was used by Socrates, Hitler, and trump to destroy democracy? I'm not bragging, but it flows like water. I didn't have to think.

> Socrates went through his life conscious of what he did not know and never pretending to know.

It's true nobody knows anything.

But even Socrates would admit he had VERY strong suspicions that certain things were true.

I'm have strong suspicions that Socrates associated drunkenness with drinking too much wine especially when not mixed with water which was the Athenian preferred way.

Your argument means nothing... it's just name dropping.
