my favorite of this is Episteme - i spend a lot of time thinking about how we know what we think we know, and wish that more people did as well before mouthing off completely incorrect or unexamined beliefs (esp not understanding when the dependencies under which they are true, are no longer true).
p.s. TIL that Odysseus was forced to be a sex slave for 7 years?
- thedailymail 4y agoForced!
- 206lol 4y agoYes. He was captured by Calypso, and held on an island against his will. It's said he wept bitterly every night at the shore, longing to be back with his wife. He was not in control, he was not happy, he was not free to leave. So yeah, forced seems right.
