@chichi666 excellent review. I'd learned of Popper's "Paradox of Tolerance" a long time ago (2016?), well before I began to look into and get serious about Plato. I was loving Plato's ideas, except for his ideas about democracies. I've heard that his concept of what a democracy is may differ from how we conceive it, but once I read Popper's refutation of Plato's opinions on the subject, I have absolutely no qualms with rejecting his opinions outright, especially given the tumultuous times in which we live. That said, I still revere him for his spiritual teaching.
