Can we get a couple dozen people to interrupt every 20 seconds or so with a "You Lie!" Non-stop interruption the whole time.

I read Irvine's Guide To The Good Life years ago. I then found it to be a useful introduction to some of the Stoic ideas. He did depart from several of the core ideas, however - with the "trichotomy of control" being a bigger one. He also comes from the secular side of the Modern Stoicism movement.

Also, peculiarly relevant:

"The wild agitators against the entire existing order, the men who act crookedly, whether because of sinister design or from mere puzzle headedness, the men who preach destruction without proposing any substitute for what they intend to destroy... are the most dangerous"

Couldn't be more relevant almost 120 years later. So many quote-worthy snippets.

"There should be relentless exposure of and attack upon every evil man, whether politician or business man, every evil practice, whether in politics, business, or social life."

If only...
