Do you have any examples of successful ‘broad tent’ social movements that we can learn from?
One example would be science, which is like effective altruism in that it is defined more by questions and methods than by answers.
One counterexample might be liberal christianity, which is more accepting of a diversity of views but has grown much more slowly than churches with stricter theology. This phenomenon has been studied by sociologists, one paper is here: http://www.majorsmatter.net/religion/Readings/RationalChoice.pdf

I was just thinking about this. Care to share what you learned about this?
