Thank you for the great insight. I agree with you about the deception concern, as one might end up with growing fearful skepticism when introducing ideas gradually and then going more radical, without genuine and constructive criticism driven by genuine curiosity and genuine interest in improving the movement.
However, could you please elaborate on this point “if you only introduce your more and unusual and radical commitments to people who’ve already been convinced by your more mainstream ones, you are missing out on criticism of the radical commitments from the people most opposed to them.”? It might be what I touched upon in the first part of this comment, but I’d appreciate your clarification.
