‘The utilitarians who aren’t taking radical actions to achieve their ends just have a failure of imagination and ambition relative to SBF.’ Quite clearly, though, this has blown up in SBF’s face. Maybe the expected value was still good, but it’s entirely possible that the (many) utilitarians who think bucking conventional morality and law to this degree nearly always does more harm than good are simply correct, in which case utilitarianism itself condemns doing so (at least absent very strong evidence that your case is one of the exceptions).
