I'm often confused by people's comparisons of them, as if we had read totally different authors.

Disclaimer: I haven't read their original writings, my understanding is primarily from depictions in Existential Comics and SMBC e.g.

Arguably they were both dogmatic but with slightly different emphases, it seems that Aristotle was more dogmatic in social conservatism, but that Plato was more dogmatic in general authoritarianism
