There is—or needs to be—a place Alice can go to do good most effectively in a way that works for her, and we need to both honor that and help her in the bext stage of her altruistic journey to the extent we can. That is a rather nonspecific statement for sure because Alice is an loosely defined fictional character.
(This is not commentary on events that led Alice to where she is today, or on the possibility of reforms that might lead her to come back. It is a statement about what we owe Alice right now, and what we owe a world which will benefit from having an EA alum in a different altruistic community.)
My opinion is that Alice’s journey is a personal one, or at least one whose path is practically defined by being independent of EA. But same caveat about loosely defined fictional character.
Thanks for writing that.
