He's been called a proto-communist and a proto-fascist. Why? And can both be true? Let's take a closer look...By the way, the video is deliberately introductory. There are other factors I didn't. mention, like the issue of free speech vs. censorship, since the Republic includes a defence of censorship! But the goal of this short presentation is to whet the appetite of newcomers, not to provide a comprehensive overview. That's something I do in my Plato course (PlatoCourse.com) and in other videos on this channel. Thanks for watching!
