Philosophical Vegan Forum

You gotta love this guy. Sure, his anti-religion rant is not exactly intellectual but his passion is rivaled by few. He is vegan, too.

yea whippets and cocaine will do that to you.

Possibly. I don't know what year this clip is from but Steve-O claims to have been clean since rehab in 2008 (after which he turned vegan as well)

Wow, I'm not sure how I feel about that guy.

Sometimes very 'stupid' style advocacy might do more harm than good, and yet, stupid people might relate better to stupid kind of slapstick style advocacy. Generally, if there's a style of debate or confrontation, there's somebody who needs that style and for whom it works. Just like the otherwise more intellectual nice vs. in your face approaches.

For all I know he might be a genius, appealing to a very specific demographic by playing a character (very often this seems to be the case).
His arguments are well chosen to be both simple and catchy.
If it's working for him, that's great.

I think Steve-O did a great job with this video. He seems to have sobered up well and comes off as sincere and intelligent (animal suffering- viewer discretion advised).
