@questforhealth Because Charlie doesn't mean "God" but God qua repression as in the answer to the inevitable anxiety produced by the needs of intellectual labour. He has psychically repressed all uncertainty and pretended to himself to have hidden it by this word God. That's not the God that organized religions speak of. It's a sad but commonplace degeneration.

RE: Whats the deal with "Vitamin" A?
@Kvothe Charlie now mimics Garrett Smith like a clone personality. And has learned to take pleasure in slandering Ray Peat ("The Peat Diet feminizes men.", "...ruins lives", "..is toxic", " ...destroys the liver."). And then adds further remarks everyday ("The carrot diet is a suspect" [in cause of death.])
I would allow attributing the religious viewpoints to lack of intelligence whereas the hatred of Ray Peat is moreso a lack of psychological introspection.

RE: Experiments with transdermal hormones
@brightside What's the reason for transdermal over injecting the hormones?

RE: Mercola radically revises health advice based on Ray Peat's research
@C-Mex Mercola is such a moron that he makes important life and business decisions by consulting a 'Master Trance Channeler' (Kai Clay) who closes his eyes and pretends an "ancient and wise" higher dimensional entity feeds him information.
In other words, he has so much serotonin and estrogen flooding him at all times that he's incapable of making his own decisions and instead resort to intentionally undergoing hypnosis where decisions will be made for him. All the while pretending they came from the "Causal Plane" whateverthefuck that's supposed to mean. And which is just a supercilious over-compensation ego-defense. So they can internally repress doubts ("Oh well, Bahlon is always right!").
Same thing with the morons on RPF who identically repress all of their internal doubts (i.e. intellectual processes) with God and then hysterically take revenge on Ray Peat to feel better about themselves ("So carrot salad really is a killer!")

RE: A list of members banned from the Ray Peat Forum
@TheSir Everything Charlie is doing now with the forum is just about selling clients and products. That they can take revenge on Ray Peat at the same time is just added incentive.

RE: A list of members banned from the Ray Peat Forum
@TheSir That place is degenerating too fast to keep up with. Every day is another trainwreck. It's hard to look away. The relationship of the power users (led by Garrett Smith) to Ray Peat is like bitter ex-lovers. In their imagination Ray Peat promised to fix all of their problems and when that didn't happen they have vowed revenge on him with this passive-aggressive slander and delusions of grandeur.

RE: New "Mission" of RPF
@Peatful It's over. The "forum" is now a recruitment board for getting Garrett Smith clients. Toxic Bile Theory is just a keyword for advertising to make sales. There's no science to it that's why they lean heavily on religious expressions for their argument (e.g. "It is Written"). The intention is to just farm traffic with annoying headlines and lazy posts that aren't even written coherently. They will continue with "Gotcha!" studies to keep pushing for business leads and continue banning anyone who frustrates them with valid inquiry or points out the obvious subterfuge.

RE: Whats the deal with "Vitamin" A?
@Kvothe That place has decayed into one large advertisement for Garrett Smith. Every sentence written by the three power users is an attempt to steer him clients. Its a very transparent marketing scheme that betrays all of Peat's work. And the fact that they're very happy and eager to do that is all the more heinous and deplorable.

RE: New "Mission" of RPF
@ilovethesea This saga of Garett Smith on Twitter and RPF Forum deliberate misinformation is more duplicitous than I expected. And to think Ray Peat expressed his disdain in 2018, which means he was aware of it even earlier (possibly even for years). It seems clear to me that 'Charlie' is well-aware and intentional in his monetary appropriation and slander of Ray Peat, and the apparent motivation is that he is underhandingly receiving money from Garrett Smith or at least signalling his intention to alliance with him like a sycophant.
In any case, none of this "Vitamin A" discussion is about health, medicine or nutrition (or God!) but is a marketing ploy to sell clients to Garrett Smith. It's just a business scheme, and a kind of fraud upon the principles which Ray Peat stood for.

RE: Why is the Ray Peat community so far right?
@CO3 said in Why is the Ray Peat community so far right?:
@jwayne There's almost not a single Marxist nowadays that supports China's system of using its citizens as slave labor to produce for the West.
This is the difference starting from 1978 that I indicated earlier. Following this time period is an expansion of Maoist education initiatives, elimination of poverty, massive infrastructural development, and so on with all national industries (high-tech, space, etc.). This is very different than a domestic hollowing out export economy or a financial based one without a tangible backing.

@CO3 said in Why is the Ray Peat community so far right?:
@jwayne it has nothing to do with marxism though? where did you even get the idea? You literally think they're communist because of the name?
To say "nothing to do with" is inaccurate. There's 75 years of literature about Chinese Marxism. Even today all land, resources and major economic assets are state-owned.

RE: New "Mission" of RPF
@TheSir Even if Ray Peat did email Charlie in 2015, he was angry and offended enough to inquire about Charlie's personal identity in 2018. That Danny Roddy email is clearly a disavowal of approval by Ray Peat to use his own name in the way it was, at least ethically if not legally.

RE: Concentric only exercises
@raypneat One thing to keep in mind is that increased muscle mass is beneficial to a higher metabolism. So its arguably worthwhile to do bodybuilder programs short-term, for instance, to gain muscle mass, and then seek to retain it long-term in more healthy ways for longevity. I'm sure its possible to build muscle mass with concentric-only exercise, but it seems much less straightforward and thus many people may drop out or never pursue it, which is overall a probably worse outcome.

RE: Dopamine fasting/technology break will help my mental health?
@AndrewPeatMatrix Turn off all notifications (e.g. vibrations, sounds) on your phone. Stop scrolling on social media and begin reading books instead. Don't watch internet videos.
Screen usage/culture is highly anti-social and neurologically dysfunctional, and that's saying nothing about EMF or blue light.
It also lends itself to hyperstimulating addictions like pornography, which will cause further brain decay on its own.
Dopamine is very important to keep elevated, but you should do it by resensitizing yourself to the elements (i.e. earth, water, air, fire), animals, people and so on - not by "digital culture" (Ray Peat's term) with its degenerative cyber simulacra of reality.

RE: Work and health
@CO3 While you're stealing time from the employer not working and getting paid, take advantage of the opportunity to read books on the job. And if you're illiterate, as most people are, at least listen to something to try to learn and better yourself, if you're on company time performing a meaningless job.

RE: What B vitamin/s do you supplement? what dose, reason, and whats the effect.
@FitnessMikey I'll say that when I took B6 as P5P (50mg) it gave me a sensation of time dilation in the night as well as intense dreams and nightmares.

RE: Why is the Ray Peat community so far right?
@CO3 What's interesting to me is that the most advanced form of Marxism, proceding from Marxist-Leninism to Maoism, is now Xi Jinping Thought that currently is the state doctrine of the PRC, and objectively of the most successful economies in human history over the last few decades, howsoever deviated it is from traditional Marxism via Deng's Reforms and Opening Up.
Anyways, China has no organized religion but it does have a stream of Taoism-Confucianism which are respectively the esoterism-exoterism of a longstanding metaphysical tradition. This is, to give one example, a far more interesting field of research (than debating the USSR) because its ongoing and relatively unexplored, and also requires a theoretical background.

RE: How to cure premature ejaculation?
@Blud More practice. I have no idea what the 'pelvic floor' is. I've never thought about those muscles in my entire life. But it sounds very close to the genitals, and if so, is going to have an opposite effect. My advice is focus your attention anywhere else than the immediate pleasure.

RE: Resources for authors
@Amazoniac If I'm not using pencil and paper, I write using the simple notepad that came installed on my android phone. Or sometimes a typewriter for artistic effect.

RE: New "Mission" of RPF
@yerrag said in New "Mission" of RPF:
A humanist following ancient codes such as the Baghavad Gita are better Christians in spirit than Christians in understanding Jesus in spirit.
A person following Bhagavad Gita is not a 'humanist' but a Hindu.
There are alternatives to living in the Judeo-Christian world. For example, the Hindu, Islamic, Buddhist and Chinese worlds.
