I don’t get this one. Is an intellectual supposed to read Socrates or something?
Or the poster is just a dick to black people.
Probably something to do with plato’s account of socrates saying “I know that I know nothing” so by teachings of plato (and more broadly the teaching of socrates) you’re an intellectual when you realize your own lack of knowledge, meaning by admitting to not being an intellectual OOP is actually in line with what he’s reading?
Just a theory tho
That’s a fun take
It’s a good theory!
The fool tries to read Socrates’ works.
The wise man writes Socrates’ works and calls himself broad man.
You can call yourself a broad any time, man.
Nah Dylan Thomas and Jack Kerouac
So what do real intellectuals read?
Greentexts of course
Isekai manga
