A diploma from Texas A&M is worth less than the paper it’s printed on.
When an ancient philosopher predating the birth of Jesus is too “woke” for your institution of higher learning, I have to question the educational value of said institution.
It’s Aggies, so no value there to begin with.
Beware the man with one book.
Texas has to reduce the input of Thomas Jefferson as an Enlightenment philosopher because he was too woke as a slaveowner.
Because he beefed with the church.
I guess that radical leftist alexander the great will be next, he had man lovers.
I hope college football fans start bringing signs with Plato quotes to Texas A&M games.
Lmao, Plato is like a major philosopher for right-wingers, there’s literally a propaganda channel named after it.
Aka, Texas a&m is attempting to be one the right wing fascist schools approved by maga
I applied there in 2010 for undergrad and was offered to go there if I joined ROTC. I wrote back asking if I could not, since I objected to war and my offer was rescinded.
And here we are
Are we so out of touch?
No, it was Plato who was wrong.
Famous lefty radical Plato
Gotta watch that newfangled philosophy - why don’t we just use the classics? /s
Texas. The One-Star State.
“The punishment which the wise suffer who refuse to take part in the government is to live under the government of worse men.”
– Plato, Republic book 1 (translated) circa 375 BCE.
Easy to say. Good luck changing politics, the neo liberals have a deathgrip on the left options in politics, running as the plutocracy but the other parties are worse. Making the radicalized right planning of fixing elections, now with the help of russia and the us, an inevitability as they run as reform.
Nothing will break the population from the neo liberal’s death grip, not short of a populist alternative, but they kill that in the cradle. Not even 2024 shook the confidence of the sheep in the party, as arrogant as ever they are busy being led to aggressively blame everyone else for their unwinnable strategies, especially blaming those that fought for a new deal of popular reform that could both win and restore the glory of our post war year prosperities. Across the west not just in the US, the US and UK are just the harbingers of the death of liberal democracy in all but name.
Wise men can’t solve this, not disparately with the forces aligned against the common good.

Why? Don’t you trust us to read Attic Greek?
I only read Cellar Greek. Attic is to high brow for me.
Unexpected, I’ve never heard this joke before.
Also the cellar is where I keep my Hell-enic wine. It had a devilish flavor.
So dumb
Just like A&M graduates!

Plato is pretty gay.
Plato has never struck me as a particularly happy person.
Now please ban all computers because of sexual preferences of Alan Turing.
Cave wins again
