New "Mission" of RPF

If the Enig critique is the one that was written over a decade ago, I did read that and found it unconvincing.
The question was posed on the RPF whether anybody asked Ray Peat specifically about the toxic a 'theories' and the answer given was that he replied that he didn't simply see any evidence for it, but is this the case? Was the question posed to him in a serious manner -- if at all -- and was he presented with any research or evidence? The toxic a thread over there was around for years before his death. I don't have the stomach or the patience to read through that thread myself.

@S-Holmes Thank you!!
That is very fitting that you should say that... since you do find a lot of beneficial compounds in cream, including vitamin A as well as other exotic things e.g., milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7456308/

I don't want to sound too judgemental... but anyways here goes, I have to get this rant out of me:
The idiots on RPF that say that they got harmed by the "Ray Peat diet" are some of the dumbest persons I have ever come across. Let me explain.
For example, mosaic01 thinks that on the "Ray Peat diet" carrots are the ONLY allowed source of fiber. How myopic can you be to read Ray Peats work, and then come to the conclusion that you are only allowed to get fiber from carrots? What about fiber from cooked vegetables, whole fruits, residual fibers from starches like potatoes, wheat bran, oat bran; all of which are foods that Peat endorsed at some point?
Like hello?!?! What is even going on inside your heads? Sometimes I doubt whether these are real persons, I can't even fathom it. YOU CAN EAT OTHER FOODS THAN CARROTS AND OJ.
But that is probably not the worst part, I would be actually be okay if someone legitimately thought that Ray is the "carrot only for fiber" man. The worst part is blaming all your failures, that YOU CAUSED by eating foods that did not agree with you (or some other lifestyle issue that you did not address), on Ray Peat. It makes me furious to see Ray's life work being dragged through the mud like this by low IQ posters.
What is so difficult for these people to understand that Ray did not prescribe specific diets? I just don't get it.
Thanks for banning me I can't stand spending any more time on RPF.

I've seen lots of mis or disinformation (depending on how you look at it) over there on the RPF about Ray Peat's work.

If this is someone here, keep it up. Lmao.

You don't sound judgmental at all.
Good day Korven.

I felt like I was in a vacuum trying to get that point across on the forum a couple of years ago. Peat had like that one iconic herb doctor interview where he told the hosts he drank like a gallon of milk a day, and I guess everyone thought he was recommending that as a template, lol.
That interview Danny had with those producers of "on the back of the tiger" documentary was pretty telling, and hilarious. That guy said while he was interviewing Peat they showed him all these images of people stocking their fridges with orange juice and stuff. Like, apparently Ray didn't know about his online popularity until that point. The guy said Ray's eyes widened and he said "I think I need to be more careful with what I say from now on." That was fucking hilarious, and it explains so much in such a little one sentence.

They need to portray Peat's recommendations as orthorexic/restrictive to make their proposed diet of "beef, beans and rice for the rest of your life" seem not so bad by comparison.

sounds like they are dumb then

There’s a chap called “ThorTorrens” buzzing around Smith's tweets, occasionally shading Ray, engaging in anti-carrot extremism and doing his best Bradley Cooper impression.

This what passes for science I guess in this controlled opposition campaign.

You probably can follow a yellow brick road of utter stupidity all the way to the tippity top of civilisation.

mf eating beans
What surprises me is that no one over there seems bothered that the bean queen, Karen Hurd, was an Army Captain, Military Intelligence, between 1980-84.

Thank you very much, I didn't know about this!
It's fascinating to listen to this piece https://youtu.be/cY0QqoJM7LU?t=2428 LOL!
I guess that what he said as a comment to "RP diet" should be the main banner of the forum.
Moreover, it would be great to have a bot - If someone used the words RP diet in a post, the bot would reply with this video clip/quote.

Goes to motive.

@C-Mex
For those who are missing the current political climate in the US, Rand Paul, Thomas Massie and other congressmen are openly questioning and investigating COVID origins as a potential bioweapon created simultaneously with the vaccine, while Trump continues to laud his success with the Operation Warp Speed COVID Vax and with vaccine-skeptic RFK Jr on the presidential ballot as an Independent, drawing some Republican votes away from Trump. Many cite Trump's inability to come clean on the COVID disaster and warp-speed vaccine rollout as reasons they're not voting for him again. To me, this looks like a pharma/MIC funded counter narrative focusing on Trump supporters, which Trump may or may not be aware of. He was duped (or bought, some say) out of having a vaccine safety committee at the beginning of his presidency which he asked RFK Jr to lead, after Bill Gates told him it was a bad idea, and he failed to 'drain the swamp' at the NIH, CDC, FDA, et al. It is becoming more widely understood that vaccines are not subject -- exempted by law -- to the same testing standards as other pharmaceutical drugs and they've used censorship and character assassination up to now to obscure this fact and avoid scrutiny, but some of those tactics have been challenged in court, up to the Supreme Court and as a First Ammendment violation of Freedom of Speech. Meanwhile, studies keep coming out indicating harm caused by the COVID vaccines and the regulatory agencies are coming under fire for lack of transparency for only releasing highly redacted reports which were funded entirely at taxpayer expense. They desperately need a scapegoat and a red herring, anything to muddy the waters.
It's a convenient narrative for the powers that be no matter where you fall on the political spectrum. It doesn't have to be proven or true, they just need to get people to believe it.

What's crazy is that interview is from like 2015, and you'd think the admin of the "Ray Peat Forum" would have known about that. Charlie and Garret have basically created a fictitious caricature because otherwise they'd not have anything to critique...except their own actions that is. I didn't know carrot fiber was the only fiber allowed on the Ray Peat diet, I don't think Ray knew either, lol.
