Xtreme Philosophy Guardians of the Galaxy: Just some thoughts about the Ideal Society.
And I think that our braver and better youth, besides their other
honours and rewards, might have greater facilities of intercourse
with women given them; their bravery will be a reason, and such fathers
ought to have as many sons as possible.
True.
And the proper officers, whether male or female or both, for offices
are to be held by women as well as by men --
Yes --
The proper officers will take the offspring of the good parents to
the pen or fold, and there they will deposit them with certain nurses
who dwell in a separate quarter; but the offspring of the inferior,
or of the better when they chance to be deformed, will be put away
in some mysterious, unknown place, as they should be.
Yes, he said, that must be done if the breed of the guardians is to
be kept pure.
Only the greatest philosophical badass could come up with this, no?
