You could imagine some kind of quota, where for any partisan political issue, you can only post about it on side X if there is any X quota remaining (which can only happen if posts are added from the perspective of side Y).
But, what would we do if (as seems likely) everything gets polarized? Animal welfare, AI, even GHD are starting to show signs of political polarization. Would everything then be subject to quota?
Agree this is a very thorny problem and I am unsure of how to deal with it. Suspect there’s some degree to which you can balance it usefully and that it’s worth paying some cost of looking partisan but ultimately it’s not really viable to coordinate everyone’s level of partisanship.
I think a big part of mitigating the costs is just trying to avoid the sense that you’re speaking on behalf of EA or AI safety when talking about partisan stuff
You are absolutely never going to get an equal split of x and y. I’m not super deep in the community, but EA seems very politically homogeneous.
