The only people who like Democracy are those in the majority, until they are no longer in the majority.
u/pkvi: Do Socrates existed ? Only:
Plato
Aristophanes comedy "The clouds"...
something mentioned by Xenophon.
And even less we know about his actual philosophy - what was Socrates,what was only Plato views.
And it is known Plato was aristocrat,so nothing strange he hated democracy.
If he did exist I'd love to know what has been manipulated and what has been withheld entirely.
There is so much ancient wisdom either lost entirely or separated so as to confuse or not divulge the whole truth.
The sonnets were good the rest is mostly pulp
