<p>There are very interesting discussions going on on this site, with a healthy mix of different opinions. There are some paleo viewpoints, but in my opinion there should be more.</p>
<p>Has anyone here been a raw vegan at some point in their diet history? Were you ever under the sway of this kook Durianrider?</p>

Just wondering if others in the paleo community knew about it yet. Thanks.http://paleohacks.com/questions/113016/durianrider-is-always-attacking-paleo-promoters-have-you-seen-this-site-that-dis/113252#113252Comment by AshleyAshley2012-04-20T20:46:55Z2012-04-20T20:46:55ZHa! This is true, Warren.http://paleohacks.com/questions/113016/durianrider-is-always-attacking-paleo-promoters-have-you-seen-this-site-that-dis/113252#113252Comment by AshleyAshley2012-04-20T02:11:45Z2012-04-20T02:11:45ZDiets are like ex-lovers in this way. You can get really worked up and passionate about them, and feel like they're "the one," and then one day you finally admit to yourself the relationship isn't working for you anymore, and it's time to say bye bye. And then you wonder what you ever saw in the person.
Mocking someone for once being passionate a different diet than they eat now, is like mocking them for their having once been all crazy about some loser. We all go thru phases and figure it out as we go along. No one is born knowing everything.http://paleohacks.com/questions/113016/durianrider-is-always-attacking-paleo-promoters-have-you-seen-this-site-that-dis/113039#113039Comment by AshleyAshley2012-04-20T02:04:49Z2012-04-20T02:04:49ZI think you're misreading the intent behind the comments, Twinkletoes. People there have really had their health damaged by bad advice they've received from Durianrider and crew. They feel passionately about speaking out about what has happened to them, and sharing their truth with others. This is not intended as hate. http://paleohacks.com/questions/113016/durianrider-is-always-attacking-paleo-promoters-have-you-seen-this-site-that-dis/113034#113034Comment by AshleyAshley2012-04-18T22:49:57Z2012-04-18T22:49:57ZArguing with the 30bad True Believers would have about as much wisdom as walking into a mental institution and arguing with the patients. No 30bad True Believers post on the site. It's not for their benefit.http://paleohacks.com/questions/113016/durianrider-is-always-attacking-paleo-promoters-have-you-seen-this-site-that-dis/113039#113039Comment by AshleyAshley2012-04-18T22:45:44Z2012-04-18T22:45:44ZTwinkletoes, just an FYI that the site isn't a "hate site." It's giving a voice to people who were really burned by that diet/lifestyle and whose stories/experiences were deleted from 30bad. Open conversation isn't allowed on raw vegan forums, and 30bad is the worst offender. Silencing and censoring people whose experiences on your diet reflect badly on you is never the answer.
