Socrates

In order to answer your question, I must first understand the nature of a problem. :^)

>>1940529
Do you know he had a problem? Or do you merely think you know he had a problem

>>1940529
I see, but what would you say is a problem? What is not a problem?

I am afraid I don't know for certain myself, perhaps you could teach me?

that's a complicated question, what exactly do you mean by "his problem"

>>1940529
memes aside, he's probably the first "meta" perceptive in human history, in the sense that he questioned our brains' function as a tool to assess information

How do you do that? Through collaboration, whether people liked it or not

Where earlier philosophers like the Eleatics seeked truth through establishing rules of logic, Socrates would rather contrast two points of view and sieve a mutual truth out of the coffee filter that is the brain

I was surprised when I read about Socrates' martial achievements. That's so out of touch with what we normally think of him.

Dude is based.

Threw a hissy fit about not taking back what he said and chose to drink poison instead.

That's a boss level drama queen if I ever seen one.

the greeks were very serious about physical fitness and the concept of the citizen soldier

>What the FUCK was his problem?
He knew that he didn't know what the FUCK his problem was. True wisdom.
