    New tribe /t/cynic created.

    The tribe would revolve around the exposition of the philosophical decree of Diogenes of Sinope i.e. Cynicism. Diogenes is considered to be one of the most eminent and influential philosophers of all time standing together with Plato and Socrates. He has been known for his ultra practical approach to dealing with his philosophy and has matched all his words with his deeds. His philosophy has also influenced some of the famous philosophical schools like Stoicism.

    We would discussing more on this way of life and how can we integrate this lifestyle to our present one. It aims at de-cluttering your life, untangling you from the un-necessitated complexities and developing the right frame of mind. Diogenes has been known to be averse of highly esoteric philosophical debates and so will this tribe be. We would be focusing more on the practical aspects even though a healthy level of academic discussion would always be encouraged. Minimalists would also love this.

    If you really want to see this philosophy in live action just read the story - "Diogenes and Alexander."
