The ultimate state of /lit/.

>that's why you read Plato
>so you think you're smarter than Plato?
>I uhhh uhhhh
Why did people think this was clever anyways?

>Losing an argument to a black person
T b h, the last time I argue with a negro he tried to claim that black people didn't have any rights under the US Constitution because of a flaw in the Dredd Scott case, then cited George Zimmerman (who was Hispanic, Pacific Islander, and a quarter black) being acquitted of any murder charges as being proof that black people have no rights in the US.

I really , really, try not to argue with them, for every 1 Cleetus there is like 10 Tyrones

>>10788398
Is he reading both The Purpose Driven Life and The Bible?

I live in Europe and don’t interact with negro’s that often. But I do interact with third world muslims which is basically the same thing, mostly uneducated and idiotic people. It’s basically impossiple to debate them because they either start getting aggressive or start swearing in their mother tongue. I don’t understand why people even try.

>>10788672

>So you think if you lived in that era of Plato's, with the same access to information and amount of intellectual infrastructure, you would be smart enough to think of exactly what he thoughy back then?
>I uhhhhhh
Any idiot can claim that they're smarter than Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle. The reason why people read the Greeks is to read about the foundations of philosophy, of course since this was centuries ago our knowledge has improved greatly beyond the thought of that era. Anyone who thinks they could come up with the Platonic Theory of Forms from scratch is kidding themselves

>>10788758
Nice, been waiting to read this. Gj, anon. Maybe there’s some hope in /lit/ after all. Ah who am i kidding

>I live in Europe and don’t interact with negro’s that often

Popped your bubble you little pseud. Now I love black people.

I can't even understand the pre-socratics, someone please explain Heraclitus to a brainlet retard.

>>10790678

>>10788398
It's a reference to Socrates saying that "The only thing I know is that I know nothing". It was a compliment.

>>10788758

>"That's why you read Plato."

>Did you know Plato was black?

>>10792530
Nonwhites are simply inferior to us as white men of virtue

>>10792530
Ayy same, wanna meet up?

He was complementing anon in fostering his intellect, Christ, you guys couldn't take a complement to save your lives.

>>10792530
Living in Molenbeek, went to school near Matonge
Can definitely confirm

>>10788398
It was meant warmly, anon. As in, I see you want to learn and so you read Plato.

>>10788758
The foundations of shitty philosophy.
Nobody would come up with forms because it is total nonsense to everybody but STEMspergs.

>>10794119
