Something which I think is sometimes lost in community building discussions is that the stakes we’re playing for are extremely high. My motivation to join EA was primarily because I saw major problems in the world, and people that were extremely dedicated to solving them. We are playing for the future, for the survival of the human race.
Yeah, thanks for this post. I got a bit invested in some of the recent discussions here. Then I looked on my “EA to do list” (which is long, has very little to do with the recent situation, and certainly nothing to do with sh*tstorming on the forum) and I realized I lost focus.
So I don’t know if we are going to split or not, I’m leaving it to community builders, it’s not my focus area. Yes or no, my “to do list” stays the same.

Glad to hear that. I noticed myself losing focus too—a big part of why I wrote this post.
I wish you luck on your to do list, and as a community builder well… we’ll do our best. :)
