Aristotle And Plato's Criticism Of Plato And Aristotle

How can this be seen as a criticism of Plato and Aristotle? In your opinion, is the criticism correct?

When it comes to such concept that this phrase introduced it comes with great contradictory for both Plato and Aristotle .moreover, we can introduce Aristotle ideology as he mainly believes that doing good always leads to happiness which basically can only be achieved through virtue and always sticking to the idea of doing write no matter what the circumstances are. Furthermore, when it comes to Plato’s argument he has this idea of the creation of an imaginary state that virtue, morality and ultimate justice are the key features that can drive the state to achievement and puts it on the road of becoming a successful state. So, for some extent

Nevertheless, in my opinion the criticism is correct; for the reason that one of the main features of Aristotle's and Plato's ideologies always revolved around the idea of unattainable utopia and the idea of creating a city that is based on the pure foundations of justice, specialization and ethical political approach.

For this reason I would ultimately support Machiavelli when he wrote “as long as a prince is able to keep his followers loyal and united his cruelty reproach is not important as it is obvious that he will portray a merciful character than the princes who consent acts of murder and robbery through their merciful traits”(Machiavelli 59). Thus, ascertains that is necessary for a prince to familiarize himself with the best approaches in helping in making himself appear as partially the beast character as well as the human character and clearly know how to use the two characters (Machiavelli 59). Therefore, in my opinion one of the very fundamental facts that as a person I have to admit about politics that virtue is not always the best way when planning to reaching a target or execute your plans on the contrary sometimes being virtuous become a
