There are clearly mistakes here which could have been avoided, but it is really hard to predict the counterfactual; it is possible that even if those steps were taken, the level of infighting or the amount of clickbait journalism would have been about the same. Maybe not, but who knows!
I was annoyed with all the clickbait-y articles and my fellow EAs are far too deferential and being against diet change is currently the trendy view within the movement. At the same time, I think it would be healthy for the broader animal movement to build a stronger culture of cooperation and that involves a higher degree of charitability and a lower bar of whatâs acceptable when trying something new.
