If you want to trust your life to something that nutty then do so, otherwise have some animal products in your diet. When you use adjectives like "left wing" in a technical discussion about nutrition you tend to show you have an adgenda that has nothing to do with the merits of the argument, and you thereby lower the credibility of anything useful you may have to say. To paraphrase Al Franken, arguing about whether a diet is "left wing" or "right wing" is like arguing whether al-Qaeda uses too much vinegar in its salad dressing. It may be true, but it's completely beside the point. Hope this helps. It only helped to show that you aren't very astute, and you're probably too contaminated by notions of political correctness ever to learn. "Diet for a Small Planet" IS INDEED an expression of leftist political thinking. So is "veganism". If someone tells me he's "vegan", I know EVERYTHING about his politics; there's nothing concealed. By this chap's comical worldview, two-thirds of the population of India are lefties, Nope. Indians are not generally "vegan". You don't know your ass from your face. [...] You have next to no evidence that any of those people, historical and contemporary, are "vegan". I suppose quite a few of them were or are vegetarian, though; there's a big difference. Try to say what little you have to say in far fewer words next time, windbag. -- "Of what are you afraid, my child?" inquired the kindly teacher. "Oh, sir!
