Plato promoted the belief that the family should be completely deconstructed and its component parts used as tools of an omnipotent, leviathan state. This means that children will be taken from parents practically from birth, preventing the parent/child bonding. …So the Commies got the idea from Plato. Wow; how unoriginal of them. Problem is, the family is the basic unit of society, and thus societies like this one proposed by Plato cannot exist without falling into chaos.
“Problem is, the family is the basic unit of society, and thus societies like this one proposed by Plato cannot exist without falling into chaos.”
Chaos is what they want. To then be replaced by the “benevolent, all-powerful state.”
