New "Mission" of RPF
-
@jjk_learning Well, I mean, the guy calls himself the nutrition detective. He kinda brought that on himself, lol. I don't think it's inappropriate or even snarky to use that vernacular especially when you're putting out highly controversial ideas that the science disagrees with you on. I, too, would also like the "detective" to enlighten me. Apparently vitamin A deficiency grants immediate & permanent access to the Akashic records, we need the messiah Garrett to impart this wisdom upon us.
-
@ThinPicking Yeah it looks like he blocks a lot and often uses an offputting approach. I'm trying to get to the root of the disagreement though. Beyond all the back-and-forth vitriol, it is hard to find substantial discussions of the idea that Vitamin A is harmful/beneficial. It all goes ad hominem and never reaches actual discussion. BioEclectic mentioned that there are aspects that Smith can't/doesn't explain. I'm trying to hear what those are.
-
You can go through that and find a litany of reasonable inquiry that he's refusing to respond to.
And that is the point.
There was some excellent retort from the gent behind this account as well. He's MIA now but you can take inference from the responses.

Wow, deal offer for the RPF name, but no dice says the lion.
I know Charlie reads this thread, so I want to ask him, what exactly does he think gives him the right to profit off of Peat's name while constantly insulting him and banning anyone who agrees with or defends his theories? What a pathetic man.
-
@ThinPicking I see a lot of those responses. It seems like those people (Goeddeke, Williford) are discussing what Bilbo is bringing up. Hard to tell for sure without his account/tweets active. But that seems like a decent legit discussion, which is good to see.
-
@ThinPicking
Couldn't have said it better myself. The man won't answer softball questions whose answers would demonstrate good faith and be informative to newer audiences. -
I can't see it any other way.
I continue to find motivations to change the narrative, including a recent dis of concerns about Bill Gates-linked chemtrails from solar engineering projects. These guys are pretending to be anti-Gates and anti big pharma, all the while promoting narratives that benefit them. The particularly annoying thing is that they try to mimic Peat's style of uncovering the truth, but they are using it without evidence it to promote a counter-argument to facts that are inconvenient to the powers that be, and even mixing in some truths from Peat's work. I find it to be intentionally misleading.
-
Because the goal is character-assassination under the guise of promoting his work. The mischaracterizarions of his work seem intentional. The banning of longtime members (not to mention the exclusion of Russian, and possibly other, IP's) serves the purpose of giving the illusion of consensus, where only 'miraculous recovery' from the 'toxic Ray Peat diet' stories are heard. My only question is whether this was the intended goal of the RPF from the beginning or whether something changed along the way.

@C-Mex
You have some stamina mate, I can't be 'in the RPF' more than a few minutes to get some review info. Those bright orange boxes highlighting TOXIC are just too much and too many. Thanks for bring this to light, seems this kind of 'conversion' of existing groups/forums online, and in real life, - out here in the world - is happening more frequently now. How many employees does the DS employ?! Sheesh... . -
@C-Mex
They are/have been definitely assassinating Ray's character, as well as blaming Ray for their own misinterpretation of Ray's bio-energetic orientation, and then their supposed sickness or depleted health, and then they have an eventual recovery through the miracle of 'Exorcism', ie- of Vitamin A.
Devils Be Gone!!! -
Actually I don't read there anymore, but I'm sure it is more of what I read a couple of weeks ago. I've taken to occasionally visit the tweets of Garrett and Thor to see what little 'truisms' they are posting, and I can almost always spot a hidden agenda. I'm even thinking some or most of these posts are automated -- AI.
Just to add:
I just wondered how much of that "misinterpretation" or Dr. Peat's work was facilitated by some members of the RPF over the years? I remember sending a link to my brother from the RPF about a problem he was having and at that time I looked at the Forum and saw all kinds of crazy-looking topics and wondered what my brother --unfamiliar with Peat -- was going to make of it if he ventured outside of the topic I sent him.
I also don't think that these 'people' are confined to the RPF and X. Sorry, not trying to cause paranoia but I think this is a realistic view.

@Amazoniac He’s taken the entire site off the wayback machine. Stolen all our content, banned us from accessing it, and now we can’t even look up prior versions. Unbelievable!
-
There’s no record that Garrett Smith was EVER into Ray Peat. When he says he tried the “Ray Peat diet” (not that there is one) and failed, he’s 100% lying.
This was his first website back in 2006: https://web.archive.org/web/20060813070450/http://doctorasteacher.com/
He also has an abandoned Twitter under the same name: https://twitter.com/DoctorAsTeacher
By 2012 it looked like this - pushing various crap and no mention of Ray: https://web.archive.org/web/20120517014143/http://www.doctorasteacher.com/
In 2013 it started redirecting here - this site was around from 2012-2017: https://web.archive.org/web/20121104160416/http://www.drgarrettsmith.com/
In 2018 it started redirecting to yet another URL: https://web.archive.org/web/20180404211251/http://nutritionrestored.com/
During this era he also had a podcast with this person and you can find a lot of his old posts here: https://www.facebook.com/thepathtostrengthandhealth/
Finally in Oct. 2019 we get the first mention of the low vitamin A grift: https://web.archive.org/web/20200627074214/https://nutritionrestored.com/
Then in 2021 that URL starts redirecting to his current Nutrition Detective site, where he’s suddenly proclaiming himself to be “the world’s leading vitamin A expert”: https://web.archive.org/web/20210808230723/https://nutritiondetective.com/
This is all on archive.org for now unless he copies Charlie and gets it removed...

This article has been around for a while, but it is worth a read for anybody who hasn't read it. It's more about social media censorship, but still, you get the picture. Hybrid warfare.

I hate this little mouth-breathing worm so much.

At least he speaks highly of and is impressed with Ray Peat. He also rebuffed Charlie's advances for the 'toxic a/bile' nonsense, I'll give him that. I thought that was what this thread was about, the 'new Mission' of RPF.
-
lol. Now 'big corn' and 'big dairy' are the culprits, according to Thor...

Don’t bother CO3, it’s not worth your heart. You may wish to proceed to pity and study that. But remember, that is a human being. And so are you. And so am I.
I’m not sure the aforementioned ever realised what they were doing but it seems obvious to me in hindsight. Presented with a series of multinational corporate dumpster fires in form of their profession, they incorporated, went multinational, and the proverbial demon they raised became prone to arson. While some of us take old adage to heart, such as a warning not to try and fight fire with fire, some of us can be a little forgetful. Not to mention a little… hot headed.
In a way I appreciate the example. Maybe I can muster a thank you. Either way, I’ll see them at home I guess. When they catch up.
Have a great day CO3.

I'm not at all familiar with how the Wayback Machine works, but none of the content is showing up under the various headings. Has it been scrubbed?
