    I am extremely inspired by Socrates and his Philosophy. His method of inductive reasoning, approach towards the importance of 'Knowledge' and rationale for living a "good" and "virtuous" life -- all these concepts resonated with me deeply. Thank you for explaining his life and arguments so clearly and in such an accessible manner. Excellent episode.

      A good Sophist is a Socratic, brother.
      If you aren’t a Socratic and are trying to be benevolent, you are a cowboy who may or may not achieve his goal - you can’t know to a high certainty. A Socratic can know to a high degree of certainty.

    Diotima is the woman Socrates's credits in Symposium for teaching him what we today would call the "law of non-contradiction." The Delphic Oracle was also associated with the goddess of Justice Themeis and the oracle her spokesperson. At any rate I've seen you've done your homework on Socrates.
    As for Aristophanes's play Clouds. Aristophanes has two characters called Unjust Speech and Just Speech mock Socrates's "method." Some might call that "ironic." Other's might never study it and make a youtube video.
    Apology? That dialouge can be summed up in three words. Absolutely Fucking Profound. Here Socrates's method is on full dispaly as he draws the distinction of Reality>gods vs God>reality. Collaspe that wave function. What do you get? Something along the idea of omniscient or omni-science. What does that mean? Doesn’t matter. The point is Socrates is drawing the distinction between G as subject and g as predicate. What does that mean? Well it means explaining away socrates doesn’t constitute understanding of Socrates. For example. "Is piety, pious because it is loved by the gods? Or do the gods love piety because it is pious?
    Do you understand what Socrates is doing there? That 🔄 stuff? No? Because you clearly didn't show that you did in this video.
    Here lets try it another way. Tell me you don't understand Socrates's philosophy. By telling me, Socrates's philosophy is not understood by YOU.
    See how that "🔄" stuff works now? See how its just a tad bit more "edgeir" than your making it out to be. Than with your example of the "beauty contest?" Still no?
    Well more than half of Socrates's jury did not "Understand" either. And along with one REALLY PISSED OFF Athenian. As in, gonna wrestle you to the ground and Hoplite spear you in the Fing Face 300 style pissed off Athenian. That will forever Mind F the human race with a book fully titled: "Republic or on Justice" By the name of Aristocles, i.e. "Plato."
    The "Western Tradition" is Born.

    I believe Socrates figured that he was so old and didn't have long to live anyway. So why not go out with a bang. If Socrates had been twenty years younger he would have made sure he would win in court. It seems like, we have to make people of history larger than life.

    The party line: Socrates was a genius whose goal was to help fellow Athenians and humanity discover Truth.
    The real story: Socrates was a lazy, unsuccessful, henpecked husband who needed an ego boost, which he found in upstaging busy, working folk and turning their young sons against them.
