Fair! My point is that while I don’t think they randomly pick targets to attack, I don’t think their target-selection rubric is at all calibrated to who is actually bad or good. I think they attack EA because they think that’ll help them win, and they would do that even if EA were not seeking power and influence.
… I explicitly called them bad faith actors in my comment; I don’t think I’m extending much grace to them.
In any case, whether or not they are acting in bad faith doesn’t have much bearing (for me anyway) on whether EA actions have been good.
