The Diabolical Folly of Plato

At the beginning, I felt like it was straightforwardly and self-consciously satirical in a way that you might be making fun of your family or make fun of your friends. Towards the end, it just feels less satirical. It's praising folly, but it just doesn't feel like he's being satirical at all. The edge of the satirical has fallen away significantly by the end of it.
