No much has changed in 2500 years, human nature is basically the same. We should all be studying more history, not like in school but like you present it - what does it teach us about today.

Really interesting article, thank you! It got me thinking again about how important it is to have your own internal compass — your own values — not just follow a party line or jump on the latest social trend. When you have that, you like walking the Socratic path without even realizing it.

Thanks for your thoughtful post !!! 👍👍

History repeats itself, this time with people having I-phones and jabs, but no Socratic Mind seems to be around, even on a global scale ...

(They're all shadow-banned or censored somehow ...)
