Vegan ex-restaurant owner Dan Hoyt has been arrested yet again for public lewdness, after he pulled his pants down and exposed himself to a female at a Manhattan subway station. And ex-vegan restaurateur Sarma Melngailis has been arrested after a year on the run with her husband, charged with stealing $844,000 from investors and failing to pay $40,000 of wages owed to their employees.
[..]Australian vegan, Leanne “Freelee” Ratcliffe, says all meat and dairy consumers should forced to go vegan. If they refuse, then she insists they “don’t deserve to live on this planet”. And among those who escape the firing squad, all males should be forced to undergo sterilization. Yeah, she’s completely insane.
[..]An Australian woman attempting to prove “vegans can do anything” has died while climbing Mount Everest.
[..]What really drives the behaviour of vegan activists? Is it a genuine passion for animal welfare, or a rabid hatred and seething intolerance of those who refuse to embrace their pseudoscientific dietary beliefs?
[..]If, after recent events, you thought Gary Taubes could not possibly sink any lower, then … you thought wrong.
[..]In 2012, low-carb diet advocates Gary Taubes and Peter Attia announced the ‘non-profit’ Nutrition Science Initiative (NuSI). Taubes waxed lyrical about the “days, hours and weekends” the duo selflessly poured into this new initiative, purportedly set up to help rid the world of obesity and diabetes. What Taubes neglected to share with us was the lucrative salaries he and Attia would be receiving as a result of NuSI. To date, Taubes and Attia have been paid an estimated S1,800,000+ for their involvement with the organization. An organization, I might add, whose first metabolic ward study has simply confirmed what I’ve already been saying for the last 11 years.
[..]For years, low-carb author Gary Taubes has been belittling and snidely dismissing those who disagree with his nonsensical claims about carbs, insulin and obesity. A couple of days ago, at an obesity conference in Canada, researchers announced the results of yet another metabolic ward study debunking Taubes’ claims. But this was no ordinary ward study – it was a study that Taubes himself had helped conceive!
[..]Polyunsaturated ‘vegetable’ oils have long been promoted as “heart-healthy”. Researchers recently presented yet more data showing these oils are in fact more likely to increase cardiovascular and overall mortality!
[..]The cowardly, sleazy Harley “Durianrider” Johnstone, in his latest attempt to defame me, has publicly claimed he has video footage of me punching him in the face while he was riding his bicycle. I will happily hand over $10,000 to Johnstone if he can prove this claim.
[..]Harley “Durianrider” Johnstone: Find out why this obnoxious vegan troll is the most cowardly, dishonest and sleaziest creep in the entire diet and health arena.
[..]Thanks to a viral YouTube video, a best-selling book, and countless media appearances, Robert Lustig has become a widely-quoted and highly influential anti-sugar commentator. Which is a pity, because most of what he says is complete garbage.
[..]With every passing year, the claims of diet gurus and health ‘experts’ seem to get more and more ridiculous. Today we examine the especially moronic claim that table sugar is as addictive and destructive as alcohol, cigarettes and even cocaine and heroin!
[..]If you told me 12 months ago the most comfortable road bike saddle I’d ever try would be 100% carbon, have absolutely no padding, weigh a crazy-light 77 grams, and cost less than $200 … well, I would have thought you were either yanking my chain or just plain crazy. But it’s true – there is a saddle out there that possesses each and every one of these qualities. Folks, meet the Trigon VCS06.
[..]When independent researchers recently reanalyzed the results of a trial involving the widely-used anti-depressant paroxetine (Paxil), they uncovered some very disturbing results.
[..]A simple challenge to my haters: Prove your bullshit allegations about me, and I’ll give you lots of money!
