    the greeks did it, afterwards it's just the story of the gentile addicted to christiniaty and christinaity being inherently flawed, even the gentiles were genuinely trying they would fail to stop being coomers.
    And after that it's just the bourgeois reviving the greek academia, but this time making it part of the ruling class and a subset of the media industry. The bourgeois are interested in larping only, playing pretend, which is exactly what women love to do too. This is why women thrive in democracy.

    Diogenes of course
    Wittgenstein
    St Paul (he counts, fight me)
    Cioran
    Spinoza
    Socrates
    Kierkegaard

    Most great philosophers kept it real I think.

      Solid list anon. The fact that Wittgenstein fought in World War One is hardcore--any vet of that war is hardcore. Then there's the fact that he volunteered basically because he wanted to experience death is S tier.

      Not necessarily "philosophers" in a strict or formal sense but writers and thinkers who kept it 100, off the top of my head:

      Maurice Blanchot
      Antonin Artaud
      Karol Wojtyla
      Nikos Kazantzakis
      Ernst Junger
      Felix Guattari

      Many communist philosophers were also revolutionaries and political activists, Marx, Lenin, Mao, Gramsci, Negri, Debray...

      This. There are a ton of third world poets, writers, intellectuals, and philosophers who were also revolutionaries and often martyrs.

      all the ones that became monks

      And this. Basically all of the Church Fathers (Clement, Athanasius, Ignatius of A., Irenaeus, Evagrius Ponticus, John Cassian, Augustine, Jerome, Basil, Gregory of N) and later founders or key thinkers of monastic movements/revivals (i.e. Francis, Clare, Ignatius, Bonaventure, Benedict, the Desert Fathers/Mothers, Hildegard, T. of Avila, modern ones like Peter Fehlner and Thomas Merton).

      Ultimately he was just a Protestant so he did alright, even though as a father he was severe & uncaring.

    Karl Marx would be an example of the complete opposite of living their ethos. What a complete and utter loser.

    How is targeting innocent civilians just going about their business in line with his ethos? Look up American Airlines Flight 444, Ted straight up just wanted to kill people to fuel his own ego. I would even venture to say his entire philosophical and political ramblings were all merely a thin veneer to cover his innate, psychopathic thirst for blood and fame, to feed his insatiable ego with the blood of innocents with a half-baked justification to con and draw in midwits.

    I carefully state that everybody with an ethos has tried to live it, with different degrees of success. People without an ethos also live their aethosism with different degrees of success.
