Question[edit]


Akarlin was incorrectly blocked[edit]

"ProVegan" isn't Karlin, and I'm not "Inthecavee". They blocked a bunch of accounts wrongly thinking they're other people. I personally think the "ProVegan" edits were on mission and corrected some inaccuracies e.g. Karlin has now one peer-reviewed article (when the article was written a year or more back he didn't). The "ProVegan" edits weren't also promotional, they merely added some anti-vegan comments Karlin had written.Oak (talk) 19:15, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

are u asking us to unblock the white supremacist neoreactionary whose main recent contribution was this? EK (talk) 19:32, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
"ProVegan's" edit(s) weren't bad and improved the article, so should be accepted rather than reverted - that was my main point. As for blocks, I've only ever supported blocking if someone did harassment such as doxing or serious threats; this explains for example Emil Kirkegaard's ban. I don't see a valid reason to block Karlin since he's not done this; he also never sockpuppeted to edit his own article (ProVegan isn't him).Oak (talk) 19:49, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
ok cut to the chase, was provegan you? are you smith back again? why do you care about karlin being blocked? EK (talk) 20:07, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
I'm not Vegan/pro-Vegan so wouldn't choose that name; while I oppose factory-farming (primarily because of carbon dioxide/methane emissions and deforestation), I'm pro-hunting for food (which can actually help protect biodiversity i.e. many animal populations need to be controlled in number to prevent overgrazing). Veganism to me also seems redundant since the near future will mostly be clean meatWikipedia. As for why I posted here, my interest was simply someone blocked "Inthecavee" as me (not my account) and then I realised Karlin was incorrectly blocked as "ProVegan". I do plan to go back to adding a few more articles, but will do on another account in the next few weeks or month. Oak (talk) 21:19, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

"incorrectly blocked"

kek looks like it wasnt a bad idea EK (talk) 02:29, 4 October 2019 (UTC)

The article is still filled with misrepresentations. I'm not a white nationalist, but Russian nationalist. Politically, Western Russophobes made me a pro-Putin Russian patriot, while Putin himself has gradually made me a Putin-cynical Russian nationalist. That said, politics is the mind-killer, so I prefer not to attach too many labels to myself. But to briefly summarize, I subscribe to virtue ethics on the personal level, nationalism at the national level, and effective altruism at the universal level. Broadly, I support what works.
