Meat Speech Is Now Hate Speech 

I heard about the all-meat diet when Jordan Peterson claimed that he had used it to treat his depression. He decided to try it after his daughter had success with it treating a series of medical problems stemming from a bout with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis.

Limiting one’s diet to meat seemed extreme to me. Giving up green vegetables and other plant-based sources of vitamins and minerals seemed nonsensical.

A friend of mine tried it for a skin inflammation problem, and reported positive results. Since then, I’ve read more anecdotal evidence in its favor. And there are early studies suggesting that it can be effective for a variety of auto-immune disorders.

It’s too early to tell if there’s something to this, but it seems like a hopeful development. Right?

Well… no.

Like almost every health topic today, the all-meat diet has become a political hot potato. According to some, it’s another racist conspiracy. And opposition to it has shown up everywhere, including in this unpublished TEDx talk.
