It’s shocking that this post has −67 views. Peter Layman, you are the only honest person in the EA community, and that you are being buried for highlighting a simple truth speaks to how bad the EA community is at assessing the impact it has on the world. This post should not have −67 votes. There is a rampant tribalism mindset within EA, despite the fact that this community is explicitly built on the rationality of rejecting tribalism. Too funny.
As a moderator, I think this comment is unnecessarily rude or snarky (“too funny” is clearly adversarial, which is not generous or collaborative) and breaks Forum norms. Please don’t leave any more comments like this or you might be banned from the Forum.
[Addition: I should clarify that the norm-violating behavior is not criticizing EA or the content of what you’re saying about tribalism etc., but rather the tone of the comment.]
