He was unironically right. Fuck Socrates.

>>16750398
can anyone on this board refute him?

>> No.16750461

>He is noted for [...] his famous blush at the end of Book I, after Socrates has tamed him. The meaning of this blush, like that of Socrates' statement in Book 6 that he and Thrasymachus "have just become friends, though we weren't even enemies before" (498c), is a source of some dispute.
What does this mean?

They are the same person, friend.

But, yeah, he was unironically right.

That's not the statue of Thrasymachus. Thrasymachus was bald and had a really shitty neckbeard.

Just because it can be enforced does not make it correct. Sexual deviancy can, in theory, be enforced, but that doesn't make it any more correct. You can't prove that something is correct just because it can be enforced.
