Five Crazy Vegans on Youtube

in #steemit8 years ago

Veganism is an interesting topic. There is a lot of passion in the community and sometimes it goes a little to far. Here are some examples.

durianrider

Harley Johnstone is a well known and contriversal figure in the vegan community. His videos are a mixure of trolling and at times very useful information.

Here is being useful

Here is being crazy





Freelee the Banana Girl

Leanne Ratcliffe is Youtuber and who is (who actually knows) wife or girlfriend to Durianrider. She is known as eating nothing a bunch of bananas a day and talking about her diet and shape.

Here's one of her calm videos

And here is one of her not so calm videos




The thevegancheetah

Another crazy one. His message is:

I love #vegandrama | Exposing the truth one tweet at a time.




Vegan Gains

Vegan Gains has calmed down from his earlier videos. Yet, is still crazy imo




Joe Vegan

and Joe makes fun of them all

Build an animal sanctuary with him

Here is is making fun of the other vegan channels

Sort:  

lol yeah, you picked the drama queens of the vegan world. :) Fortunately, though, there are other vegan YouTubers out there who are much saner. Some of my favorites are:

Emily from Bite Size Vegan

Colleen Patrick-Goudreau from Joyful Vegan

Swayze from Unnatural Vegan

Mic. the Vegan

And last but certainly not least...

Dr. Michael Greger from NutritionFacts.org :)

Nasim Aghdam was the woman who recently assaulted the YouTube headquarters with a pistol and injured a few people. She was actually a interweb influencer and a total narcissist who probably planned the attack because she wanted the attention. Most of her content is gone forever. She takes the proverbial cake as far as crazy vegans of youtube go.

Thanks for sharing these crazy vegan YouTubers with Steemit. I have enjoyed a lot of their videos. Durianrider in particular is the most comically insane in my opinion. You should check out Vegan Gain's video criticizing him here.

This one is a lot better than TheVeganCheetah's video on the same subject because it is more concise and with less personal attacks. I think that Charles Marlowe's, as The Vegan Cheetah's youtube channel is now called, is kind of a Fake Vegan as pointed out by Richard Burgess of Vegan Gains (among others) has pointed out. Perhaps this is why his channel no longer has vegan in the name. If you ask me, Charles' best video is this one where he takes on Vegan Gains.

I love Richard and Jasmine both, no matter what anybody says about them. Richard's Response to Charles was perfect. I admire his ability to engage in debate with absolutely anyone. It just goes to show that no publicity is bad publicity, this is why Jasmine did not shy away from making her video about the true origin of their wolfdog Lucy.

I personally went vegan for health reasons but the more I think about it, and the more I watch these kinds of videos, the more I am disgusted by "animal husbandry" or "the animal holocaust" in the agriculture and textile industries. The populations of "food" animals are unnaturally large and are hurting our planet's biodiversity.
