Post Modernists = logic doesnt real, there is only subjective experience. Believe rhetoric is only a tool to power, use it to seem populist to forward selfish careers and bilk money out of the education system. This is the definition of Sophistry.
Seneca = Stoicism = basically Existentialism = Both are about accepting reality for what it is and focusing on mastering yourself rather than the world = Jordan Peterson. The only thing that makes this slightly complex is that Sartre was a moral relativist, but all the other existentialists were moral absolutists and besides Sartre is the bridge between existentialism and post modernism so hes half of both.
Socrates = political activist, radical, cranky old man who wants to stick it to the establishment and thinks both sophistry and publicans are full of shit, will say anything to anyone anywhere but mostly likes to tell people what they dont want to hear = Noam Chomsky. This is so true of Noam it almost makes you think hes the reincarnation of socrates.
Plato = Platonism = Values w belief in a spirit realm. Plato also wasnt a particularly impressive thinker compared to the others but was brilliant in his own right, he was also a staunch pro-republic character. Joe Rogan fits this mold well as Joe, while putting off an air of being a simpleton can go toe to toe in debates with serious scholars
Aristotle = Father of logic. Empiricist, Logical Positivist as fuck, or rather the greek equivalent. Champions logic but his values are actually grounded in virtue ethics similar to christianity = this is a perfect description of Sam Harris

but no, Sam Harris is utilitarian and Christian ethics is more Platonist than Aristotelian, though it's really not that close to either.

You almost had me write a lengthy reply intended to refute your characterization of Aristotle based on the III and IV chapters of the first book of De Anima.

You had me, so I will give you this recognition - 8/10.
Brilliant work.
