You raise a fair point. Thereās an analogy to the debate within the community about whether or not we ought to only provide vegan food at events. The point I raised is similar to a proposal that we veganize the food provided at some EA event, and youāre making the reasonable objection that this constitutes an imposition on the non-vegans in the community.
As in the vegan food debate, the best solution is one where we donāt gratuitously cater to or unreasonably impose upon any group in the community.
Regarding worldview diversity, it seems that the Fistula Foundation and GAIN are charities which empower women and girls with greater moral robustness across the diversity of philosophical perspectives held within the community. At first glance, recommending them seems to me to be more inclusive of worldview diversity.
Regarding the risk of a double standard of longtermism over neartermism, Iām not saying āhey, letās forget about neartermist interventions and instead raise money for a center where academics speculate about ways to prevent the extreme suffering of AIs one trillion years in the futureā. The Fistula Foundation and GAIN are still neartermist charities very much in keeping with the postās theme.
