I disagree with characterising Will MacAskill as “ a single person who is a prominent EA”. He is widely considered a “founder” of EA, wrote the main book introducing the idea of EA and the main book introducing the idea of longtermism. I think it’s more than fair for people to assume his views are representative of a large proportion of the movement.
