This headline is a comic example of the genetic fallacy. https://yourlogicalfallacyis.com/genetic The article continues in this vein, and then presents a straw man version of stoicism in which rape, murder and so forth is greeted with indifference. I am not an unqualified fan of stoicism, but this is a ridiculous caricature of the philosophy, and the alternative presented by the article appears to be an appeal to allow emotion to drive our behavior. I do not notice a dearth of emotional reasoning or a surfeit of stoic reasoning in today's world. |
