This post introduced me to and convinced me of EA. Really, really persuasive to me at the time. Takes a very particular persuasive angle about our infinite moral debt to the world and how we can discharge it with a simple GWWC pledge, which argumentatively I don’t think is the best justification for EA, but makes for a very convincing personal story here. Maybe any of the great introductory EA posts would’ve given me the same epiphany if I’d read them at the time, but this was the one that got me.
