If anyone’s curious, Aristotle was Plato’s student, so Aristotle is the younger of the two men, and Plato is the older one.
I’m philosphying. You should philosophying too.

Look at Plato carrying that book like he didn’t make a good living “teaching the controversy” about writing. Just asking questions mfer.

Aristotle would be the younger one. But you probably knew that. Hard to tell. Good job sir.

In undergrad philosophy, most exams are simply headshots of famous philosophers that the students have to identify. In post-graduate studies, they use the picture of Nietzsche when he’s shaved.

It’s like, who died and left Aristotle in charge of ethics?

Plato is the one with very close relationships to a bunch of young boys.
Aristotle is the one who enjoyed femdom.

Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle, while Plato they say could stick it away, half a crate of whiskey every day.

It’s a reference to the philosophers song by Monty Python.

The mnemonic I learned in school was SPA: Socrates, Plato, Aristotle
So yeah Aristotle is the younger dude simping hardcore for his mentor in the red garb (but really most likely used Plato as a projection canvas for his own ideas in writing)
