Libertarian moonbattery & wingnuttery?[edit]
How exactly can VG be both a moonbat and a wingnut simultaneously? Is he a moonbat because of his veganism and vasectomy, and a wingnut for his reasons for getting a vasectomy and for his pro-gun stances? --Ambition of Truth (talk) 21:46, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
- Seems like the moonbat one is a miscat. ikanreed đBleat at me 22:33, 19 February 2019 (UTC)

Original research added[edit]
DietResearcher who has since left RationalWiki has emailed me about a mistake on this article. In February 2023, DietResearcher added some reliable content to this article [1] about Vegan Gain's views on killing carnivorous animals. For some reason CircularReasoning started tampering around with this information in December.
This content was added by DietResearcher:
"In April 2021, Burgess argued that he thinks killing carnivorous animals is a good idea and ideally all carnivorous animals need to be wiped out so other animals are not preyed upon. In response to this, That Vegan Teacher asked Burgess does that mean he believes "all the wolves, all the lions and all the predators should be killed". He replied "yeah" and stated his belief that in "most ecosystems most predatory species don't actually do much of anything to control prey populations".
CircularReasoning for some reason removed Burgess's reply "yeah" and added "He doubled down". This is incorrect and is not found in the discussion link. CircularReasoning has also invented some other words that are not found in the discussion link. Another minor point but what DietResearcher added about "contraceptive guns" is accurate to what Vegan Gains said. They do use contraceptives in the wild such as bait or intramuscular injection (administered manually or remotely). In regard to the latter this would be performed by a dart gun injection (syringe gun). CircularReasoning changed the line to "contraceptives and guns" which is inaccurate. Burgess only suggested contraceptive guns. Johns (talk) 02:12, 18 February 2024 (UTC)
No citations[edit]
@Sepron Your edits are uncited. That's why I reverted them. Carthage (talk) 13:24, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you, I'll find a citation for this and come back. Sepron (talk) 13:27, 21 November 2024 (UTC)
- You will not find a decent citation. He doesn't take steroids so what you are adding is libel. He is one of the very few natural vegan bodybuilders. Even his YouTube opponents who hate him have not accused him of steroid abuse. The only people who are accusing him of juicing are trolls on the Reddit nattyourjuice sub. It isn't a reliable source.

- @Psychologist GuyLook at the guy's shoulders, and how shredded he is. That's difficult even for a natural bodybuilder who has a normal diet, and the way he rages in his videos is very similar to roid rage. Keep in mind he's also an influencer who sells supplements and promotes products, with the claims that people who take them can look like him, 99% of the time in the fitness world if someone is trying to tell you something, and claims that that's what they use to look like that, they are full of crap, and just want to make a quick buck off of idiots. You would have to be an idiot to think that guy is natural, ask anybody who works out and has a decent understanding of the science behind lifting, and none of them will say he's natural.
