My comment was a sloppy attempt at simultaneously replying to (a) attitudes I’ve personally observed in EA, (b) the PR Slack channel as described in the article, and (c) your comment. I apologize if I misunderstood your comment or mischaracterized your position.
My reply was meant as a vague gesture at how I would like EA leadership to change relative to what came through in the New Yorker article. I wouldn’t read too much into what I wrote. It’s tricky to make a directional recommendation, because there’s always the possibility that the reader has already made the update you want them to make, and your directional recommendation causes them to over-update.
