Put me down on the side of “EA should not get sidetracked into pointless culture war arguments that serve no purpose but to make everyone angry at each other.”
Some people have argued for the importance of maintaining a good image in order to maximise political impact. I’m all for that. But getting into big internal bloodletting sessions over whether or not so and so is a secret racist does not create a good image. It makes you look like racists to half the population and like thought police to the other half.
Just be chill, do good stuff for the world, and don’t pick fights that don’t need to be picked.
