For years, the Stoics had fought. First, they fought moral and spiritual decay, trying to preserve Rome’s traditions in the midst of all their success. Then they fought, as Cato did, to keep the Republic intact as Caesar attempted to overthrow it. They fought later, in a ragtag group known as the Stoic Opposition, against a series of tyrannical and deranged emperors.The Stoics did not win all these battles. In fact, they lost nearly every single one. But they kept fighting, not just politically, but also culturally.✉️ Sign up for the Daily Stoic email: https://dailystoic.com/dailyemail?
