If I recall my history, they had him killed because he was irritating.
He irritated the wealthy elites by saying their notions of piety were essentially bullshit.
Was that So-crates or was that Bill and Ted?
All we are… is dust in the wind, dude.

Socrates truly died because he was a coward who refused to truly challenge the system he lived under.
Not sure if you’re shitposting, but that’s basically the opposite of what happened.
He refused to live to resist and decided to die for the system.

Technically he’s not wrong. When Socrates’ friends offered to break him out of jail after he was sentenced to death, he basically told them no because he believes in law and order, and even though he viewed his own sentence as unjust, he chose to abide the sentence because otherwise he would be tarnishing the law itself.
But that’s ignoring the context that the reason he was sentenced to death in the first place was because he basically told the Athenian elites that their notions of piety were bogus and that none of them knew what they were talking about. They didn’t exactly like that…
