No.
Google Demosthenes speeches.
Thucydides speeches are pretty good

You're looking for Aeschines' speeches. Especially the one about teenage faggots being more a scourge on the state than bribery

I guess it depends on how stringent you are with the term populism. There's a lot of examples with populism 'elements' I guess, but as far as having that as the purpose to spread it and further increase it? Idk, probably are some I've read but forgotten.
