In the allegory "The Cave", Plato describes a group of people who have lived chained to the wall of a cave all their lives, facing a blank wall. The people watch shadows projected on the wall from objects passing in front of a fire behind them and give names to these shadows.




''Plato's friend brought him to the market and Plato's response was "look at all the things I don't want"

Plato saw in to the future.
I think he was talking about people stuck on their couches eating cheetos and watching Fox News.
