I find my self annoyed at some of the ZCers here sometimes. Not because they are ZC, but because the way they act. They act like ZC is so right and that everyone else are idiots that don't go ZC. An exaggeration perhaps, but it has that vibe to it.
In the past some ZCers did go overboard, like William (who was banned--and I was one of the people who requested he be banned) and Katelyn (who has been behaving better and is actually quite nice when you get to know her), but who are these mysterious unnamed ZCers who are still acting up? Other than Katelyn, do we have any ZCers left here who advocate it for others? Technically, even Katelyn's not a true ZCer because I think she started eating liver and eggs. Lex is near-ZC, but he hasn't advocated it for others and actually suggests that others consider eating some plant foods. So we don't seem to have anyone who is both 100% ZC and advocates it for all. Can anyone name a single member here who fits that bill?
I'm a facultative carnivore, not a ZCer myself, which means I eat a small amount of plant foods but don't see them as necessarily essential to my diet.
When I write something on here I say what works and doesn't work for ME. I don't go making huge claims that what I'm doing is right and fits everyone. Because that's not the case. Different bodies, different heritage, different reactions to different foods. Thats what I say.
We agree on that. Nothing that I write is intended to apply to anyone beyond myself or the person I'm responding to unless I say otherwise, and I generally try to make that clear, as I did above, and avoid overgeneralized statements like "A carnivore diet is helpful to all people." Instead I try to write in terms of myself, such as "I do well on a mostly-raw facultatively carnivorous diet."
