New "Mission" of RPF

@ilovethesea Agreed, a-hole indeed

@ilovethesea If ChristAlone was Sugarbabe, then she has been on the low VA theory for atleast the past 5 years.
She ragged on me for taking vitamin A to treat night blindness in a post description as far back as about 2018-2019.

@sphenoid said in New "Mission" of RPF:
From what I understand charlie is in major financial trouble
What is this 'financial trouble?'
Does he run the health products store that is always advertised on top and bottom of the forum?
Is it The Life Giving Store? If so, I bought a red light pod from there years ago, lol.
I only recently learned Charlie has a store somehow tied to the forum.
-
@Peoples I think heās in debt from dogecoin.
But another thing I was thinking is how all of this happened right in the middle of winter (northern hemisphere), when vitamin A requirements are at their lowest. Seems like this could be by design so people try the low A diet and feel better, because there is little sun and theyāve likely burned through their vitamin D stores. The hope then being these people fall for the diet and supplements hook line and sinker, welcoming the ānew ageā of the forum. At the same time this could be coincidence as everyone involved is an idiot but the whole operation appears planned and calculated.
-
@ilovethesea by his logic we should wait and not do anything until we know for sure what we will be doing will allow us to live to 120. Garret smith looks like heās approaching 100 but as far as I know there arenāt any health gurus that are anywhere close to that age.

@Peoples But she still eats ice cream.

@yerrag this is an incredible articulation! So much of what Ray has said has been lost in translation(i.e. RPF). There's so many "secondary" and "tertiary" Ray acolytes or so they think. This reminds me of my sister in law who came across some of Ray's ideas through other so called health gurus. I began to ask her more of what they were feeding her and it became obvious that they really haven't read Ray and seem to only been soundbyte pirates.
After 8 years of reading Ray and emailing him during a portion of those years, I hardly feel like I have strong grasp. His knowledge was a certain level of mastery. I still enjoy reading his articles and listening to his emails as I gleam new information and think differently almost every time I come across it.
-
@ilovethesea I'd really like to see Charlie's blood work along with Garret Smith
-
@jwayne there's literally nothing on that forum that remotely represents Peat. I created a new user name and paid for the subscriptions. I haven't been allowed access to post.
-
@risingfire Whaaaaaat? You can't post?
-
@S-Holmes no and I'm paying. I think he may know it's me. Also, I saw your post saying Garrett looks hypo. That made me giggle. You're going to be banned soon for that!
-
@risingfire No 'New' members can, ain't that a cheek tho!
-
@risingfire That's just wrong! What does he charge?
-
@Not_James_Bond š¤Æ
-
@S-Holmes $7.00 Month or $77.00 Yearly
-
@Not_James_Bond
Dr. P would be apalled. He believed health information should be free to everyone. In fact, as I recall, the fees for his books (I have them all) and newsletter just covered his costs. Just one more breach of his legacy. -
I have to admit i am very concerned with the new direction that the RPF has taken. It seems to me to be almost cult like now with the anti-vitamin A movement.

@Verdad The new and "improved" RP Forum:
-
@ilovethesea This is just a logically absurd statement on so many levels. Ray peat actually lived 9 years longer than the average male lifespan in the US and even if he did not there are many variables that influence lifespan. You can have the "perfect diet" and still not live past 70 or you could have a relatively poor diet and live a lot longer.
I pointed out to them that many people who eat "toxic dairy" as they now call it live well over 100 and that those in the so called "blue zones" regularly eat dairy but no this has become true cult like mentality. All evidence to be ignored, and just plow on with the anti vitamin A and now basically anti ray peat movement.
They don't sound any different to me than the vegans or the carnivore diet or any diet that refuses to take on evidence. Really depressing because it has been such a good source of knowledge for me over the years.
-
@S-Holmes haha it really does seem like it has reached that status. Charlie claiming that the anti-vitamin A movement is part of the great awakening. Next he is going to say that if you eat low vitamin A you will be part of the rapture. It really is sounding absurd.
