I don’t think there’s actually a risk of CAISID damaging their EA networks here, fwiw, and I don’t think CAISID wanted to include their friendships in this statement.
My sense is that most humans are generally worried about disagreeing with what they perceive to be a social group’s opinion, so I spontaneously don’t think there’s much specific to EA to explain here.
You are correct in that I was referring more to the natural risks associated with disagreeing with a major funder in a public space (even though OP have a reputation for taking criticism very well), and wasn’t referring to friendships. I could well have been more clear, and that’s on me.
Oh really? Because in typical male-dominated social networks, there are usually pretty high levels of internal disagreement, some of it fairly sharp. Go on any other forum that isn’t moderated to within an inch of its life by a team that somehow costs 2 million a year, and where everyone isn’t chasing one billionaire’s money!
