Socrates Through Time



Socrates: "Everyone in Athens is stupid. I'm traveling to the future when people will have learned more so i can have someone smart to talk to for once." Description: Socrates enters a phone booth and time travels to the future. Socrates: "Ah, the future! Through the dialectic process of philosophy, they all should have become so wise and understand the truth!" Socrates, the year 1300: "Burning heathens? This is stupid as hell. Why haven't people gotten any smarter?" Socrates, the year 1932: "Mr. Hitler, your ideas are dumb as shit, have you considered that?" Socrates, the year 1970: "This is what they are calling philosophy!?" Socrates, present day on a computer: "Great, finally! An Agora the size of the Earth, where the best ideas can flourish." Person: "And this is what's called a “comment section”, it allows an open dialogue across the earth." Description: Socrates stares at the computer in shock and disbelief. Socrates: "Do you happen to have any hemlock on you?"
If i could travel back in time i would give Hitler a printout of the wikipedia page of logical fallacies to help improve his critical thinking abilities, thus preventing the Holocaust.
