It does feel like we're going backwards as a society. I think Miles is just an overprivileged, undereducated manchild. That gf of his doesn't help.

I think the only vegan youtuber I still watch is Nicole Whittle.

Just watching miles latest youtube, its weird to indicate quite heavily that his childhood was abusive and then not say anything directly

I love Emily! She's so sweet and adorable, for some reason I just listen to hear talk about food for hours. Her sense of humor is a bit dry I think, I love it. She's very realistic indeed.
Who is vegan bodegacat?




He doesn't work there anymore, so it's not really an issue. I said worked, not works :giggle: ! That's why I think that at least he has some kind of formal education, otherwise hospitals won't hire you, that's why I didn't want to discredit his actual degree (whatever it is he has), that's what I was referring to! Hope it makes more sense now :giggle: Otherwise, you are absolutely right and I fully agree with you.

What does Jill do again for a living? I also wonder how much money Miles is making at this point? They seem to be living quite decently, but Miles's YT channel is not getting the views anymore it used to get, and what is Jill even doing? They seem to spend a lot of money on food and... well, herbs lol. How are they so well off?
And can you link me where you found on the information on the stuff he took? I'm interested in learning about it, if you are willing to share? :giggle:

Yeah, I know, but he used to work with patients. Jil does her weird spiritual guidance online workshops for money. I don't know if she has any other source of income at the moment. I guess they both still do the occasional ad on Youtube or Instagram. I always thought Miles must have some money saved up from his career as an athlete, I'm sure he owns his house. I can't really see him paying the bills with Liquid Gold sales and Youtube sponsorships. And he was able to afford the private rehab clinic.
As for the kratom information, I just googled the term and also if there were any medical studies on it. x

Miles uploaded a Q&A video in which he basically says he doesn't watch the news, doesn't believe mainstream media, and will never believe anything he hears on the news again. He advises others to "stay true" to themselves and trust their intuition. He claims the current situation is not about a virus and protecting people from it. He claims not to be a conspiracy theorist but a "grounded, level-headed" person. He "believes what he believes" and claims that freedom of speech is taken away at the moment. The way he uses his platform for this bullshit makes me sick. He denies scientific observation and probably believes all that trash Jil shared on her Instagram (she reposted the worst of the worst, really crass misinformation and blatant lies). And he's so smug. I'm worried people will believe him. He gets a lot of affirmation in the comments, although there are a few rational comments as well. And he looks bad with his hair. I remember years ago, when Jil said she wanted to stop lightening her hair because it was unnatural and toxic, and now she is encouraging Miles to bleach his hair regularly because she doesn't want to have a dark haired boyfriend. They both make me sick.

Best raw vegan youtuber drama ever was a big fat guy who lived out in Thailand invited some German girl and another raw vegan girl to live in his house then German girl accused him of sending her sexual messages and basically the fat guy was demonised all over YouTube but then came with receipts that German girl had been sending him messages as if they were embarking on a relationship to get free/discounted rent she then Had to post some Long ass vlog saying she had mental health . So dramatic and I believe freelee and durianrider got involved somewhere down the line

Ohhh I remember that .... the best connection? That was crazy! He had a thing for young women and had loads staying at his house taking advantage of him for free. He was loaded and I never understood how? He was trying to cure his t2 diabetes with a all fruit diet!? Another taken in by the freelee cult 🙈

re: miles and jil

you guys... jil has been liking posts about the queen being the reptilian overlord. i truly CANNOT fathom how the spiritual community is SOOOO intertwined with the ultra crazies/ conspiracy theorists (of course millions are also dying from the vaccine and the gov is simply hiding it). oh and apparently she and miles were a couple in atlantis and some dark power caused atlantis to sink which she learned because she talked directly to said dark power. i am actually beyond speechless that miles who comes from a really medical family (as in, almost everyone in his family works in the medical field) somehow just abandoned common sense and believes all of this (he has said that he 100% agrees with jil on everything)

Sorry to bring it back to Vegan Beauty Girl again but I hate it when Youtubers film inside other people's houses and upload it to their channel! It's so inappropriate.

Love seeing the recommendations on here, I'll check some of them out :)

I watched quite a lot of Miles in lockdown 1. His content is so aggravating to me now that I switched off. Constantly checking himself out and if I hear 'bloobs' or 'strawbs' one more time...:sick: . The anti-vaxxer stance is a shame. Every time I find a vegan youtuber who seems sensible, there's always something unpleasant bubbling under the surface.

He's pretty arrogant and comes across as privileged.

They’ve become really full of it as their subs has grown. I don’t trust them in the slightest. They seem purely out to become u tube celebs now!

No judgement from me, people need to pay the bills.

Personally, I've only ever had jobs with indirect ties to the animal industry. I work in an office based role now and some of our clients have links to animal testing, so I could end up doing work indirectly for a company where I actively don't buy their products.

In terms of a more direct role, if I ended up having to take any job at all to get by, I would probably take it then look to find something else in the future. A role cooking or handling meat would be unpleasant. I remember seeing a documentary (BBC?) about a group of people in Wales who became vegan for a period of time and one of the girls worked in her mum's burger van and it really bothered her. I think she found another job eventually.

Did anyone else used to watch Raw Alignment? That’s been a wild ride 😂

Ahaha yes, I used to watch her for a laugh. Was shocked when she did a complete 180 degrees and became an extreme meat eater. I haven't looked up on what she's up to in recent times though.
