Diogenes was a really creepy philosopher

He regularly beat off in public

He was against cultural norms

He actually though having sex with himself in public for all to see was a teachable moment


He was an adherent to social chaos

He hated all of structured society

I’m sure he raped children too to make a point
How fitting for Legion to use him for a handle, huh? :rofl2:
 

Challenging social norms​

edit
Diogenes advocated a shameless life lived according to nature rather than ruled by social convention or nomos. [53] He openly engaged in behaviors that defied social norms, such as masturbating and spitting in public, eating in the marketplace, and even urinating on people. What appears at first to be mere deviant actions has been interpreted as a means of teaching virtue and an investigation into what is natural and what is conventional.[54] It has also been suggested he did this to drive publicity towards his philosophical sect.[55]
 
Socrates called himself a gadfly; Diogenes called himself a dog. Diogenes' methods led his contemporary Plato (c. 427 - c. 348 BC) to call him "Socrates gone mad".
 
Tee hee what a fabulous irony...
