What one should fear is not a competent enemy, but an incompetent ally.

But this is a key element of life in 2025. Nobody cares how smart you are or how logical something is if the fluidity of its alternative is faster. No matter how detrimental. #notesfromsocrates

The frustration that comes when logic is repeatedly defeated by sociological reality is frustrating. I don't consider myself a stoic because I do not care if anyone believes what I say, but watching ignorance flourish while truth is suppressed is not how a society should function. #notesfromsocrates

Philosophical and historical explanations are insufficient and hollow when faced with true, visceral pain. Injustice is not a mere intellectual puzzle to be solved but a real, damaging event. #notesfromsocrates

Times of struggle, times of pain and uncertainty are also times of faith. Not faith in a god, I don't believe as some do. But faith in yourself, faith in your process and faith in your work. Trust that everything you do is not for nothing and the proof of that conviction will come #notesfromsocrates

Don't ever get so emotionally worked up over one situation that you lose touch with reality. There is a thin line between being a philosopher and a dilettante. #notesfromsocrates

You know why the things I say sting so much? Because I only know how to tell the truth. When you're an asshole nobody gives you the credit, and that's ok. I don't need credit. I need people to stop being so fucking stupid and think for themselves. #notesfromsocrates

Liberty is an idea. Those who think we can impose freedom on society through social hostility or electoral victories are just as misguided as those who think we can impose democracy on other nations through war and occupation. These notions stem from the same conceit. #notesfromsocrates

A real debate I came across. What kind of reality is this when this is a topic of discussion? #thisisamerica #notesfromsocrates

Yes, I have a framed copy of the declaration of independence in my garage. #merica #notesfromsocrates

Why? Who benefits from this and what do they gain? Who stands to lose and what do they stand to lose? Where is the evidence, or data to support this? Five W's of seeing through people's bullshit. Don't ever forget the #5Ws #notesfromsocrates

Freedom of speech, what's legal or illegal, and how authority over them is used are handled by the people in charge. The illusion of choice is something we the people live by. What we think we have and what we actually have are not the same. Don't ever forget that #notesfromsocrates

I'm pretty sure there are more bots and people that are paid to be on social media by companies than there are non-paid real, regular people on social media in 2025. #notesfromsocrates

A split screen picture depicting the current state of politics in America.

To live in this world is to suffer. To survive in this world is to find meaning in the suffering.

Trump has fired over 30k Americans and goes golfing every weekend. You can't make this up. #thisisamerica #notesfromsocrates
