Thanks for giving your perspective, Holly. This is useful since you’re one of the few EAs who’s organizing protests full-time.
I really think my model is better and the evidence in these studies should only tweak it.
Related to this, I said I’m 90% confident that protests worked. But I’m less than 90% confident in the results of my meta-analysis (maybe only 75% confident). A good chunk of my confidence comes from other, weaker evidence.
I wish there were studies that could tell me how to do this better, but there aren’t
The studies do suggest one thing about how to do protests: nonviolence is better than violence. But you’re already not doing violent protests.
