The Greeks are overrated as fuck. In particular the philosophers. Euclid and Archimedes are okay, but there's no need to read their original texts. We have modern textbooks nowadays.

maybe it's a guy who knows a lot about ancient greek philosophy and wants to deceive people into entering a serious discussion. probably not, but it's possible

Plato and Aristotle are trash. Cringeworthy primitive mystics who did a lot of harm to western civilization. Imagine how advanced we could be today if people in ancient Greece just ignored these retards and did science instead.

He's unironically right though. You won't find anything useful from either of those two persisting today. History of western philosophy historiography is nonsense
