Why does anybody still think about this stupid hipster from d.c. that starved to death because he ran away from mommy and daddy's will to give him a good future

He should be forgotten
>>
>>769113
Nice of you to again post your shitty reply to my comments but it is still wrong to start and then wanders off into you liking the sound of your own voice.

The idiot was starving to death. This made him eat a plant he wouldnt otherwise. This plant would have been fine as a small part of a sufficient diet but as he was already weak and ate only that plant he was extremely susceptible to the poison.

No he wasn't poisoned to death. Yes his poisoning was exacerbated by and contributed to his starving to death.
>>
>>772044
Here's no evidence he was poisoned, even in the slightest. You people just want him to be poisoned. That's all.

ive seen the picture before, and im not claiming the poster made the picture, but whoever did make it is irrelevant like i said, for the reasons i said, and the opinion was discarded. the opinion was actually discarded on the merit of what was said, not just the screencapping. really weak arguments and the entire thing used a flimsy basis just to allow himself to show off on an anonymous image board. i could care less for mccandles, but i have watched the movie yes, in high school english class. was unarousing

He was no different than treadwell. Look at the last postcard he sent for fuck's sake. "If this should prove fatal".

dumb cunt wanted to die. doesn't deserve fame or even notoriety.

That isn't evidence of him being poisoned though. That boat sailed when his body was buried. There's literally nothing left but fantasy as to what really happened.

You can't say something happened when there's literally no evidence of it. You are bordering on religion.

no you fucking moron, that works both ways when it comes to arbitrary discussions. how he died is in no way pertinent to anything outside of foraging manuals including content based on his proven fatal experience. for you, a shitposter, you dont require a burden of proof to a claim any more than you need to provide proof for your equally arbitrary counter claim.

>hurrrr im smart, me am internet debater

>>773673
Burden of proof lies at your feet. You're making the claims.
>>
>>773678
>>773678
Not that anon, but it's a valid hypothesis based on the observed presence of a neurotoxin in the seeds and him mentioning in his journal that the seeds fucked him up.

I think he did actually kill an elk or deer or something with his little .22 rifle but he didn't know how to smoke the meat so bears ate it.

lol he only lasted 4 months away from home.
>>
>>774249
He lived more in that 4 months than you have in your entire life bitch.
>>
>>774295
Not really considering at least 3 out of the 4 months he basically spent slowly starving to death.

Not really what i would call "living".

He should have took his trust fund money to Vegas instead.
>>
>>774295
>Bumbled around the woods slowly wasting away and writing about himself
>More living than my life
Come on now, that's just silly.
>>

>valid hypothesis

It actually isn't even that . He died of starvation because he's a moron, not because he was, "le poisoned."

They've exhumed hundreds of years old corpses to test for arsenic before. It's not out of the question.

I would say there is a high probability this was the case.

>>

100,000% this

If you can't hunt and eat meat regularly you will die of starvation.
>>
>>773794
>his journal that the seeds fucked him up.

Wasn't that like a full month before he died?
>>
Why do you losers care so much about this faggot

Care about somebody with noteworthy /out/ experience

If anything this guy should only be posted in the vagabond thread, and even then he is a laughing stock because he was a fake hobo.

Only in his mind, which is fine.

People forget that if you have to explain how you 'lived life' for a certain period then, to other people, you probably did not 'live life' the the extent you imagine.

For example backpacking through certain places.

I see his story not as that of a hero but as a cautionary tale. I don't think the average joe does, unfortunately. For those not /out/ oriented it's a fantasy.

I can tell you are a massive cock gurgling butt plug faggot just from those three sentences to be perfectly honest with you
