Anyone heard of Diogenes? He was basically the ultimate NEET of his time

I heard he liked jacking it in public.

>Anyone heard of Diogenes?
No. Literally no one on a board dedicated to the discussion of philosophy and the social sciences is aware of a relatively prominent philosopher from the classical age of philosphy.
>>1223857
No, please tell us more ;)
Dude was edgy as fuck

>prominent philosopher
Not a single piece of his own philosophical works exists today, and any written accounts of him are hardly accurate as it was mostly by philosophers who wanted to shitpost under his name.
Literally the only reason people discuss him on /his/ is because of his meme value

This. He is so "prominent" yet no one here ever discusses his ideas (if he had any), only that he jerked off in public and spoke to Plato and Alexander that one time. Truly a meme philosopher if there was any.
>>1223857
Yes, he's a mandatory topic in gradeschool history
>>1224018
Kirkegaard was prominent but discussion of his philosophies is also extraordinarily rare, doesn't mean shit

Difference being that one of them actually has a philosophy to discuss, the other, just biographical anecdotes.
