Thanks for sharing Alene! I agree that effective altruism isn’t a great name but disagree that Mass Good is a better one. I unfortunately don’t have time to discuss all my reasons. With this said, I really do appreciate you taking the time to write up and share your arguments and would welcome more thoughts about how to best communicate the ideas of EA.
In addition to the above, I also want to use this comment to signal that I would like a way to agree and disagree vote on posts, rather than just comments.
I don’t want to downvote well intended posts that I disagree with but I do want a way to signal my level of agreement with them. I also want a way to observe other people’s degree of agreement with the post.
