A closer look
Ancient Greek philosopher Diogenes chose to live inside a large clay wine jar in the marketplace of Athens, completely rejecting societal norms while making a daily habit of publicly mocking powerful elites and openly masturbating in the streets. When Alexander the Great, the most powerful conqueror in the known world, stood over the homeless philosopher and generously offered to grant him any wish he desired, Diogenes simply looked up and told him to step out of his sunlight. He was the original, uncompromising king of dirtbag leftists, proving that you can absolutely terrorize polite society and humiliate billionaires just by having zero shame, a quick wit, and a complete disregard for personal hygiene. It is deeply tragic that modern philosophy is taught in stuffy, expensive university lecture halls instead of by unhinged feral men screaming insults at passing politicians from inside a discarded ceramic dumpster
