"I was wrong", says ex-Durianrider supporter, Ultrafitrunner.
15 December 2017 [link youtube]
An edited excerpt from Ultrafitrunner (who describes himself as "not vegan", and yet a supporter of the raw food diet… I shudder to think what that entails…). His channel is here: https://www.youtube.com/user/ultra100able/videos
I do find it implicitly hilarious that so many of my critics claim (as he does at the very end of this excerpt, as I've edited it) that somehow political and legal causes are trivial things compared to "focusing on one's own health" —and although I DON'T put much of a priority on my own health, I'm nevertheless in a state of much better health/strength than they are. A lot of this sounds like an echo of the old John Lennon attitude of trying to win arguments by saying, "just focus on yourself man". Well, I'm not a John-Lennon-ist: my own health and happiness are a relatively low priority… and I think that is true for most people who are passionate about politics in general (perhaps ecological causes in particular).

called out yeah I always say I'm gonna you know I'm gonna be very transparent so I got called out what I mean by that is I zone Lazard as people would call dr. evil aisel mozart basically put my video up there and then he showed pictures of the document but the thing that it's a hundred percent fabricated well you know I'll call myself out I was wrong I was wrong if he's got the documents to prove it then that's fine if he actually showed himself in the courthouse and then Joe best was in there during the hearings that's fine so you know I was wrong I'm up I'm a bigger person to admit that however I do think that there is still some type of stuff that's made up in the vegan community um as far as older people though that got misled or taken in like I could I could say I was one of them to a certain extent my reality hit when I went to the festival which I would call more of a meet-up that was in Chiangmai and I just realized that you know this is pretty much all smoke and mirrors and a scam there is no what was a festival is is not anymore I know it's a long video I'm kind of rambling here I'll admit I was wrong you know I you know I gave it a shot I thought it was a pretty good accusation and if somebody has the evidence to back it up that that's fine he showed me that evidence the money could have went to much better use than putting it towards a court system that's that's basically not gonna do anything and it was just what to make a point that he's defamed now and nobody listens to him well that may be the case but I think that people have to use their own mind in their own judgement now I made a judgment about aisel vegan cheetah and during Ryder and I was wrong I was wrong to a certain extent you know he said he said he said I said there was never any documents and he proved the documents so I was wrong I got called out on it and hey I'll admit that I was wrong now we'll hear this probably not maybe doesn't matter but the point that I'm trying to make here is that when we spend too much money on all I'm taking this person to court than that person to court you're basically putting yourself no better than everybody else that's just making up frivolous lawsuits and spending money where the money can be spent on better resources and this is why I am NOT vegan this is why I don't support the vegan community because it's all about drama it's all about slander it's all about you know you know let me take this person down because they said this whereas if you just walked away from it and concentrated on your own health your own well-being [Music] [Music] [Music] ablution ah ba Lu Ciel
