Jancocl's a crackpot. Like his predecessors von Däbiken. Belikovsky,
Moseley, Dembeck, et al.

It's pretty obvious that Plato aimed that at his own fellow Athenians.
He had good reason. He lived during Athens' downfall, and had lots of
time to speculate on its cause.
He linked that decadence to the execution of Socrates; people worsted in
argument finding a scapegoat in a simple honest intelligent man, and
jurors swayed by unreason, and demagogues pulling the wool over their eyes.
