He was right about everything, to the point even fucking Nietzsche couldn't manage to dislike him. That being said if you actually care about philosophy just start with the greeks and work your way up, or, pick whichever appeals to you the most but the more modern they are, the hardest time you'll probably have understanding them.

The Republic is also pretty good, if you want to learn on how to reason/ i.e the precursor to the scientific method

Don't bother. You won't find anything of much use. Learn Logic, mathematics, systems science etc. something analytic with application. Maybe some postmodern philosophy will be of interest just to throw in a bit of chaos.

In fact, go to https://dominiccummings.com and compile a reading list from the figures quoted at the start of each blog post. You're welcome.

No problem! It’s almost impossible to run into philosophy after Descartes that wasn’t influenced by him.
