1.) Hitler was no philosopher king. (Obvious enough) 2.) In fact, Hitler was a frustrated artist. According to Plato, Artist belongs to lowest kind of...something, I forgot. 3.) Communal property, communal wife, communal etc...doesn't sound like nazism...sounds more like communism. 4.) Nazi hated communism, simply because communism have a jewish founder. 5.) Hitler hates Plato. 6.) Plato hates Hitler. Hitler was more of a Nieztsche product than a Plato one. |

I saw Two Towers today...and thought that Plato could learn a thing or two from Tolkien. In his search for the Philosopher King, Gandalf might have cautioned him that "even the wisest does not see all."
And for his prejudice towards artists, Gandalf again could say, "not all that is gold, glitters." Lord of the Rings Rules! |
