Why would plato or confucius have to start over bc of the philosophies of marx, darwin, freud, and einstein?

Plato thought that "guardians" of the Republic were to be pure, selfless.


Marx thought that "intelligentsia" of the "workers' paradise" would be pure, selfless. So far the "intelligentsia" have been impure (flatulence contests in the Kremlin Politburo meetings, Mao spreading venereal disease, mass murders by State, etc.). So Plato would have to rethink the ideal of pure, selfless leaders as unlikely.
