assholes in stoicism

It’s actually book two that begins with the paragraph about dealing with “assholes.” It’s not necessarily that they’re trying to be that way, but that they cannot help themselves. So don’t stoop to their level (“No one can implicate me in ugliness”).

He goes on to talk about not getting angry at relatives, but I can’t tell if he’s being metaphorical in that all humans are relatives or if he means literal relatives.

I suppose it doesn’t matter, the advice would apply either way.

Book 2, ¶1
