What would Plato do with Drones?

from About Bees, Culture & Curiosity · host Ron Miksha and Bidzina Mosiashvili

Season 2 Episode 6: About Bees, Culture & Curiosity Podcast – What would Plato do with Drones? Ah, yes. Our philosopher-contributor is back. Daniel Miksha shows us how Plato abuses bees by making them into an allegory for the ruthless (but ultimately justified) murder of unproductive members of society. After a brief detour into the early history of Greece and the nation of Georgia, we focus on Plato's Republic and the ancient Greek philosopher's five forms of government, of which (in Plato's mind), democracy is one of the worst. Why? Because of the drones, of course.  Aristotle says worker bees must be males Please subscribe, like, love, and follow. We live or die by your adulation.
