The Falcon Reads | The Republic, by Plato book review: An Ambiguous Utopia @TH3F4LC0Nx | Uploaded August 2024 | Updated October 2024, 4 hours ago.
My review of Plato's The Republic, the veritable cornerstone of all western philosophy, and yet also a book so astoundingly wrong in almost every respect, rife with so many specious arguments, that the thought experiment which begins in pursuit of the most just state ends up with a dystopia so extreme it makes North Korea look liberal. But hey, it makes for interesting reading if nothing else!
