Was he? Do you have a source I would love to read it. He himself fell out with the rulers of whatever city state he lived in in sicily, syracuse or whatever, and was sold into slavery, one of the fans of his writing, I think in Greece proper area but not sure, bought him, and freed him.
wasn’t plato known for beating people up if they disagreed?
If true that makes Diogenes even more based for bringing him a plucked chicken and going ‘you think this is a man you dumbfuck?’
E: actually can’t remember if that was Plato or Socrates
I don’t know, but “plato”, meaning broad (shouldered, I suppose), was his wrestling name, so maybe.
Still couldn’t dodge that chicken, though.
the philosopher know as “big boi”
How so, I never heard him referred to as big boi?
Broad › big boy. It’s not a particularly incorrect translation, I suppose.
I may be slow, broad? Big boi? I don’t get it.
A man who is said to have broad shoulders is someone with a large, broad frame. Big boi refers to a male that is large
