was he /ourguy/?

This guy is a bum. Stop worshiping him.
>>3167746
hence why this board worships him
>>3167700
Probably, nice dubs btw. It earned u the bump
>tfw you'll never tell Alexander the Great to stop blocking your fucking sunlight

Kind of surprised that people worship this hobo. He's worth a couple of lols, but he's all tip and no spear. There's no substance to Diogenes, he's a dead end no-hoper who had a terminal case of fail aids. He's the patron saint of designated shitting streets.
>>3167773
Also why is everyone anon. Are there multiple retards praising Diogenes, or just one? - Confucius the Platonist
>>3167773
Lols are important. He proved that by being a worthless hobo, he freed himself of societal norms and expectations and verbally BTFO Chads and moralfags like Plato.
>>3167844
True, lols are important.
My favourite Diogenes vs. Plato story:
"Plato had defined Man as an animal, biped and featherless, and was applauded. Diogenes plucked a fowl and brought it into the lecture-room with the words, "Here is Plato's man." In consequence of which there was added to the definition, "having broad nails.""

Pretty sure we have all determined who /ourguy/ is by now.

ARABBBBGGG???? BA RARA!!

If he is really a hobo, why the fuck is he famous? Why does history remember him over any other homeless person? I call bullshit on this guys backstory, it's a fairytale.
>>3168140
He was a very active hobo and bummed around with Plato, and his wily antics drew the attention of one of the most powerful persons of the day
>>3168140
He was the first E-celeb
>>3167746
Alexander worshipped him. Clearly a philosopher for the educated elite.
>>3167773
Diogenes' greatest contribution to philosophy was proving that Plato was a fucking idiot.
>>3167773
All his writings were lost though so it is not fair to claim that he was no substance
>>3168140
Pro-tip: Greek philosophers and free men in general were a kind of aristocracy. They generally did not have to work. Work was for women, slaves and foreigners. When someone like that that becomes a hobo by choice it makes him stand out a lot more than your average hobo who can't help it.
>>3168140
He was a philosopher first and foremost. He made himself a hobo to make point about how society was unnatural and went against human nature.
>>3167700
How did greek philoshers get famous when they're literally homeless?
>>3167759
Thank you for this.
>>3168478
BTFOing lesser philosophers. And he made Plato his bitch.
>>3168140
>famous hobos
There are a ton of saints who were hobos but hid it behind a veneer of religion/mysticism. Like st. Simon stylites for example. Dude lived on a stick for his whole life.
>>3167700
there isn't a "we"?
