This is the common view of the so called healthy common sense that takes its stand on the evidence of the senses and on customary notions and claims, at times quietly, like Diogenes the cynic did, who demonstrated the vacuity of the dialectic of motion by silently walking up and down; but often by getting itself all worked up, declaring that dialectic is mere foolery or, when important ethical matters are at issue, the criminal attempt at unsettling essentially solid norms and providing excuses for the wicked a view we see directed in the Socratic dialectic against that of the Sophists, with an ire that, turned into the opposite direction, even cost Socrates his life.
