You understand absolutely nothing about what there is to criticize in the various religious and how that is completely separate a personal, non-religious philosophy like Stoicism. Furthermore, nobody adopts Stoicism as a fashion. I don't know where you're getting this from. Waking up early, eating right, going to the gym, etc. are not things exclusive to Stoicism if that's what you're implying. That is ridiculous. Just because people talk about it does not mean they're virtue signalling (a concept that comes from various philosophies and religions [Stoicism, Taoism, etc.]) about how Stoic they are. Nobody is making laws that hurt the poor, which are based on Stoicism. I don't care about Seneca or his slaves. That's not relevant to Stoicism. I don't even know how you could even attempt to make the connection between these two things. It's like if someone who regularly went around kicking homeless people said "You should feed and take care of the homeless", would you then be opposed to feeding and taking care of the homeless? That's absurd. There's no rational connection between those two things, but that's what you're trying to do with respect to Stoicism and folks like Seneca.
