INTRO to Plato's REPUBLIC: NOBLE LIE
[media=https://youtu.be/fggOnvVdYg0]
I can honestly express my philosophical point of view at this point in response to it.
My point of view at this point is that there are no "Noble lies" or White lies there are only damnable and wicked lies and that cuts across the board as an absolute.
Absolutely every lie is wicked.
Life is meaningless chaos and many of us will be sacrificed for meaningless toil to make the rich richer.
And yet even if life is meaningless that is liberating rather than a reason for nihilistic despair because it means we can choose our own adventure and assign it whatever meaning we want.
For you, you might be here for any reason at all, as for me It seems to be love that animates.
of course i'm speaking of Eros.
