Not sure at all how Doing EA Better is ‘quite anti-semitic’, and I certainly think accusations of anti-semitism shouldn’t just be thrown around, particularly given how common a problem of anti-semitism actually is. I certainly don’t see how a rather amusing sterotypical EA description as ‘culturally Protestant’ is antisemitic; whilst there are lots of us Jews in EA, I’m not sure I find it at all offensive to not be mentioned!
I also strongly disagree that Doing EA Better suggests having lots of Sams in it is bad (hell, they say that such a description fits ‘Several of the authors of this post fit this description eerily well’), and so I’m not sure the accusations of, say, anti-neurodivergent people or antisemitism really hold much water. I also don’t get how ‘eats a narrow range of vegan ready meals’ becomes ‘think being vegan is bad’; it reads to me like a comment on how cultuyrally homogenous we are that huel, bol and planty etc could be a cultural thing, rather than all the other vegan foods out there

+1 to “how is this anti-Semitic?” (I’m also Jewish)
