No one: Me on Tuesday morning: time to watch this yt video about how Stoicism became a billion dollar scam. It appears all of these dudes making a lot of money of it (ok Ryan Holiday aside) seem to never have read the primary literature. Or any literature to begin with ^^ https://youtu.be/h8REOHfdVZQ?si=HL2tqbV4xFvzwiS2

Adding these "Philistine philosophies" to research/write about! Thanks for putting this on my radar! I'd be curious to get your thoughts on a short book I wrote some years ago addressing another attempt to prescribe moder solutions by twisting ancient history/culture/ideas... If you're interested, let me know - I'm happy to send you a copy in your preferred medium - if it's not your jam, no worries!
