Been thinking about posting something like this for two weeks but everything gets messy so asking here is better.
Socrates was scared to death by Heraclitus's ontological flux (panta rhei). Since he couldn't cope with a reality that keeps changing, he was literally tearing down Heraclitean posters in the Agora. He invented that whole "Socratic Ignorance" trick just to protect his ego from this infinite change and capitalism was basically built on this ignorance. Capitalism realized that selling soft drinks to an individual who constantly feels an internal void works long term to fill some of those gaps. I feel like im sliding into Fromm here but anyway... Skipping the middle parts; lastly i thought maybe behind Althusser's epistemological breaks lies the fact that he just couldnt pin this down into a rigid reality. I mean if something is in constant flux you cant market it; more Aristotle means more burgers am i thinking wrong here? wasnt Marx the first one to realize this?

Btw Karl Marx's 1841 PhD thesis title at Jena was "The Difference Between the Democritean and Epicurean Philosophy of Nature"
