Finally, you could make clear that living in a “EA house,” attending parties thrown by EAs or with EAs in attendance, etc. do not count as involvement with EA for statistical or action purposes. It’s understandable that the original poster may be looking at EA more as a social group, but as a practical matter CEA isn’t in a position to take any action against these sorts of individuals. I also don’t think it’s necessary for EA as a movement to somehow accept responsibility for these individuals.
I think that since CH does let peopel come to them with issues in scenarios like EA group house or events thrown by EAs (but not parties that EAs are in attendance at) , I’m not sure this makes sense. I think the problem is you can’t really separate EA as social group vs EA as professional group, especially in the Bay Area. But it can be really hard to figure out the boundaries here.
Yeah, I didn’t mean to discourage CH from addressing any situations it thought should be addressed.
I think for statistical purposes the involvement of the alleged perpetrator in “official” EA is a critical line, but other reports should still be catalogued and reported.
