Plato's Allegory of the Cave

I'm always amazed how clear and precise professor Dave sounds 🤌

And I thought I was crazy because I see shadow people and hear voices coming from the walls. I guess this is just my reality...😐

Plot twist: Plato learned this parable from reading the septuigant.

Plato isn't my favourite, but this is such a good allegory for our limited senses (even though Platos idea of why this was was pretty wacky) and can also be used as a very interesting moral dilemma

[juicedelemon]

why am "i" "hearing" "sounds" from "glowing" "rectangles"?

[WanderTheNomad]

Wow, that sounds crazy out of context.
