Anonim

The misology is a philosophical theory created by plato which was based on the description of the disregard to the arguments or reasoning, it is said that the misology also happens that the misanthropy understood misanthropy as anger or repulsion to the man, a Misologo individual, feels the same rejection or hatred but towards arguments.

This term was invented by Plato, and can be seen in some texts such as the "Republic" or "Laques" . Through these texts Plato intended to illustrate the problem of that hatred of reason arguing that misology emerges as misanthropy, the latter being caused by the confidence that they had men only to be disillusioned suddenly, reaching the conclusion of that all men are repulsive and unworthy.

When a person is considered honest, integral, trustworthy and suddenly he realizes that everything was false that everything said and done by that person was a lie, and even more so if they are close people such as family or close friends, managing to create a great disappointment and disappointment and if, to top it all, this happens not once but several times, it is possible that the person ends up feeling hatred for those people and for all people in general, coming to think that all individuals are infamous.

It is on this argument that misanthropy is based. The same happens with misology when a society trusts the arguments and reasoning of its rulers, feeling them as true and suddenly it is achieved that nothing is real, that rationality is not a function of life, that is, reasoning does not helps to live individuals begin by becoming misologists.
