- puchatek 6y agoWould that explain why the list of recipes is almost entirely noon-vegetarian?
- yoz-y 6y agoI wouldn’t read that much into it. Depending on the origin of the author it might be that not eating meat is just not common.
- andrepd 6y agoNah, he's just an alt-right version of the unabomber: https://lukesmith.xyz/articles/vegan https://lukesmith.xyz/articles/vegan
- yoz-y 6y agoAh. Wow, that’s a lot of generalisation and extrapolation.
- honkdaddy 6y agoYou’ve made this exact comment more than once - you seem to have a pretty personal bone to pick with Luke, given that your assessment of “alt-right unabomber” is about as hilariously off the mark as it gets.
- gaws 6y agoandrepd is somewhat correct. Luke is not the reincarnation of the unabomber, but he's heavily influenced by Ted's writing and tries to live a life devoid of leftists and rational thinking. I've watched Luke for years -- his Linux and Unix tutorials are some of the best on YouTube -- but his non-tech videos and live streams are where he goes off the rails. He's a racist. It's not obvious, but there are many times on his livestreams, in particular, where his language and beliefs hint to that. He often refers to Indian American as "pajeets," which is their equivalent of the n-word. He's also delusional. He constantly eslewed thst the coronavirus was a hoax and once described the guy who killed the woman in Charlottesville after crashing his car into a group of protestors -- what law enforcement considered a domestic terrorist attack -- nothing but a "car accident."
- andrepd 6y agoI feel like it's a pretty accurate description. Also, it's perfectly acceptable to appreciate the technical stuff but strongly dislike the person. Which is the case here.

- morlockabove 6y agoBeing vegetarian is somewhat cringe, yes, especially if you conspicuously bring it up a lot. Then again, there have been based vegetarians! So go and contribute your recipes!
