[Keywords] Plato, Socrates, Hippias Minor, Philosophy of Lying, Ethics, Achilles vs Odysseus, Competence vs Morality, Dangerous Ignorance, Self-Improvement, Critical Thinking, Greek Philosophy, Stoicism, Agency, Intentionality. [Description Body] We are taught that honesty is always good and lying is always bad. But in Plato's shocking dialogue Hippias Minor, Socrates argues that a deliberate liar is a better person than an unintentional truth-teller. Why? Because you cannot be virtuous if you are incompetent. In this deep dive, we explore why "intentions" don't matter as much as "capacity," why you should fear a foolish friend more than a smart enemy, and why true goodness requires the power to do evil. Stop trying to be harmless. Start trying to be capable.
