Plato and his consequences have been a disaster for the human race.

Yeah, I'd love to live in a state with a wise stalinist leader who directs all production to a humane end. It's not real and we need to account for the limits of authoritarian rule (she's right in the first half of the tweets ofc, we shouldn't fetishize democracy), her "solution" is just idealism.

Hmmmm, you say the consequences of Plato have been a disaster, but have you considered that without him an image of an AI gender-detecting robot deciding a plucked chicken was a man wouldn't be incredibly funny?
