In the words of Aristotle:"The relation of male to female is by nature a relation of superior to inferior and ruler to ruled."He maintains in his famous piece ‘politics’ that men are better leaders than women who are more sentimental and less prudent inherently.He further says “The female also is more subject to depression of spirits and despair than the male. She is also more shameless and false, more readily deceived, and more mindful of injury, more watchful, more idle, and on the whole less excitable than the male.”

As compared to Plato, Aristotle was more conservative; while the former gives to women in his ideal state equal rights of citizenship and education and no distinction in performance of civic duties, the latter disenfranchise women from the right of citizenship and completely bars them from performing any sort ind of state functions on the grounds of their weaker mental capabilities and inability to cope with the emotional stress.

Not sayin that he should fight for the end of slavery, he rather justified it as he said that natural slaves exist, so thats normal

It actually even contradicts his definition of a human being but thats another story

If we are to make moral judgements, they must be based on the culture at that time. The opinions are abhorrent but not in that context

F*** all these weird ass white boys and our educational system for shoving their ideology down our throats. Think about how absolutely f***ing sick it is the amount of time POC have to spend in school learning and regurgitating the ideology of niggas who thought of them as savage, sub-human, and lesser than I’d rather listen to Pac

This wrong. Cultures and customs change within the context of religion, morals, etc. Humans don't, so not valuing humanity is always a negative no matter what time you on broski

It's a negative to be sure but don't think it should impact how we view them and their work. A lesser issue, but in the future (or even now) 20th century views on animals will be considered speciesist, but for me its unfair to judge them for that

One could claim that they are meant to be the greatest thinkers, and ought to be able to predict societies changing values but thats a bit unfair I think, their job is to reason about the world and come to conclusions, its unsurprising some of these conclusions are offensive to modern values
