Restarted reading this book with essays by Cedric J. Robinson.

Pluto has a 50% off political theory books until the 26th:

Now reading Slavery and the Platonic Origins of Anti-Democracy.

This reminds me of some organisation posting a positive quote from Plato re the political engagement of the people during Dutch election time some years ago, which was a bit of an 🤔 as Plato was a firm anti-democrat. Just like his teacher Socrates, who got the death penalty because he supported the Tyranny, the part that usually gets left out of the stories.
