Plato’s "Allegory of The Cave" is the most famous story in Western philosophy. This 3-lecture course shows how Plato’s allegory gives us insight into how the world is an illusion, how it is real, and how to know the difference.
Developing a critical social epistemology, the course connects Plato's teaching to modern marketing, psychological operations, conspiracy theories, and mass deception. It offers a concise introduction to Plato’s metaphysics and epistemology, while revealing the essential spiritual dimension of philosophy as a practice of liberation, presenting the essentials of Loncar's approach to epistemology as a form of applied philosophy.
This course is a prerequisite for the forthcoming live course “Psy Ops: Psychological Warfare as a Global Epistemic Regime.”
