It's really like you can't think for yourself so you need someone to tell you what to think.

Why risk distorting the meaning of Platos work through a middle man? Do you not trust your own judgement.

What? I'm talking about the translation itself, I haven't really been looking at his essay. In any case, this is not my first time reading the Republic, so get off my dick.

I'm liking it so far.

>or just chest-thumping masturbatory nonsense?

Duchesne is definitely a triumphalist for Western Civ. Although I'd say with good reason.

Pretentious anonymous snit. What have I read that makes your eyes roll so? Give a list.
She's a sociopolitical scientist and I've been into that since before I came here. What, you don't like history and biography?
