Neither of those. It's Neoplatonism put to practice. Little in the way of ethics one way or the other

You'd be shocked to find Stoicism is just Platonism hyper specialized on semantics and personal ethics.

I don't see why Platonism implies Stoicism rather than any other kind of ethics.

Neoplatonism is really just like stoicism with idealism. See for instance Simplicious' commentary on Epictetus' Enchiridion
