When a kid (10+ years younger) at a rave told me --being a vegetarian at the time-- that I'm not "nice to animals" and not "doing enough" and if I cared to be consistent with my beliefs I should go vegan.

Also: children, DMT, studying Buddhism and a not to be named hard-core socialist music festival near Berlin.

Anectotal, but after 10 years following a (protein rich, trying to bulk with mediocre results) 99% vegan diet, I started having terrible stomach problems (including all sort of bleeding and explosions).

After 2 years of suffering, doctors told me it was unexplained, most likely due to stress and that I should avoid eating fatty meats as my cholesterol was very high (despite basically not eating food). They wanted to put me on statins.

I did the opposite and switched to a carnivore diet - and my symptoms disappeared in a week.

Wow. One can never satisfy these woke little know it alls hah?

Wise people appear to never be quite sure about what they say, so they rarely incur huge changes in people life, but dumb people have such a limited map of reality that everything is crystal clear and therefore they are the ones people pay attention to.

A good nutritionists would never say such nonsense but that varies on how we definite "good".

Why not name it?

Keep the rest in the dark. They dont want it to be advertised, it already attracts more people than it can handle.

Try Burning Man, some say it has similar vibes minus the radical socialism.
