Brilliant. The trouble with the educationーand thus the mindーof any society is in its being devoid of studies of the Greek Classics, especially the dialogs of Plato.
Plato's dialogues, especially those in The Republic, are 'full of holes'. His Republic is close to a fascist manifesto.However, some of his writing is beautiful. But his ideas are always questionable. In The Republic the cave story is beautiful but the conclusions needed to be provisional. In his Timaeus, no one questions Timaeus. It is also a highly dubious theory of the world and how things came to be etc. Then Critias continues his story of Atlantis. That Athens with its Guardians was superior to the (imagined) Atlantis is implied. But it is also ultimately simplistic. Neither Socrates nor Plato were keen on democracy.

Lovely and articulated reading
