Press A to applaud Thrasymachus for presenting the correct definition of justice.

Press S to shame (spit) Thrasymachus if you're a Socratic fangirl that believes in the form of the good.

> Thrasymachus says that he will provide the answer if he is provided his fee. He then says that justice is whatever is in the interest of the stronger party in a given state; justice is thus effected through power by people in power. People in power make laws; the weaker party (subjects) are supposed to obey the laws, and that is justice: obedience to laws made by the rulers in the interest of the rulers.

This is pretty Jewish. Was Thrasymachus a Jew

> Although the choice of name may be inspired by the historical Sophist Thrasymachus, the name literally means "schemer."

Read a long time ago in an intro to philosophy book. Didn’t read all of the republic. Thrasymachus was a funny and based dude.
