Furthermore, if a community wants to command billions of dollars and exert major influence on one of the world’s most important industries, it is both totally predictable and appropriate that society will scrutinize that community more rigorously and hold it to a higher standard than a group of “NPCs”.
Let’s make sure we are addressing problems that still exist in the EA community (if you would like to discuss the rationality community you can join their discussion on LW)
If we decide problems do still exist, let’s make sure we are attaching them to the right community, even microcosm of community, as both the EA and rationality community are huge and those not involved don’t deserve to be punished for things they handled well or would have handled well
If issues remain, let’s be fair in who we give the responsibility to handle those remaining issues, eg whatever bad actors remain and whatever issues still exist in whatever community microcosm.
