>Bother every rando on the street with obvious questions to stroke your own ego. Call everyone you disagree with a sophist. Have your bitch boy scribble all that yapping down.
Heraclitic method

Heraclitus only didnt leave anything behind because it all got destroyed. Wasn't his intent.
I agree Socrates was a fucken n00b.

The Socratic method should be fake and gay, but I've learned that virtually no one holding contemporary beliefs can defend them worth a shit. They rehearse arguments and memorize statistics but if you go even two steps off the trail and ask them to explain the basic assumptions that inform their interpretations they sperg out and can't justify anything because they've never thought about it. They rely on consensus so much that they honestly think not immediately conceding to their assertions is evasive or bad faith.
