Karl Popper wrote two volumes of philosophical critique during World War Two on Plato (vol. 1.) and Hegel and Marx (vol. 2.) titled The Open Society and its Enemies.
If for some reason you think Plato is a good guy, there are many who will explain and show from the primary texts that such is a misinformed opinion. I'd be willing to do that. Plato ain't your friend, and people who carry out his schemes in this day and age ain't your friends either. If you'd like to discus why, then think of sitting in for coffee at Mc D. on Main st. this Sunday afternoon and we can talk about it. I'll be there around 1:00, and I'm usually happy to chat.
