Weird ideas but an absolute chore to get through. You'll get more from twitch debates

Started 29.June.2019 it‘s the 28th Jan.2020 now and I couldn‘t finish it.I even haven‘t touched it since.I‘m into politics and political theories and I also have a thing for Philosophy but Platos The State is to picky to much of analyses for me.I read 150 Pages and I couldn‘t get any further. Sorry Plato.

I feel many of the reviews are harsh based on differing opinions. Do the ideas within this book hold up 2,000 years later? Of course not. Overall though, and especially considering its age, I enjoyed my reading experience.

how does one give this a star rating? anyway, i thought a lot of the dialogue was unnecessarily  snarky.

I wanted to be all cool and mysterious reading this book, but honestly, reading this is not fun at all and idrc about the philosophy in it. Started reading it for uni but wanted to finish it for the flex, well, I'm over that folly now.
