Diet for a Small Planet is hardly evidence of anything other than left wing kookiness. 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. You know, I just about stopped reading that thread at that point, as some things are just so ignorant I lose interest in players whose thinking is SO poor that their perspective ceases to be worth weighing at all -- as even if I strongly disagree with someone, there should be some core worth at least passing consideration, & it's less fun to argue about it if the other side is just nose-pickin' with shit in his shorts gibbering random nonsense. I've heard some dumbass stuff for why my own vegetarianism is going to kill me, though I'm healthier than any of 'em after 25+ years of meatlessness. But the old it's-a-lefty-commy-pinko-conspiracy argument has never before been on the list of demented reasons for nutritional facts not being facts; makes as much sense as invoking butt-probing "greys" from outer space, who do indeed figure into many leftophobics' unusual beliefs. I retract what I said earlier about your writing ability being pretty good. You write shit, and you also are far too verbose in spreading your shit. I've seen you off and on for a few years now, and what always shines through brightly and with clarity is your monstrous ego. You are so taken with yourself and with your "take" that you can't rein yourself in. Look: less is more. A perfect example of how someone utterly devoid of reason No; not an example of that all. can at least call his betters names! No names called; no betters in evidence. Face it: your writing is lousy. You use far too many words to say...well, to say not much of anything at all. You mistake your logorrhea for wit. |
