EA is becoming a cult? It must be wokeism fault - awful.systems

it’s about the curse of ___ism

One objection is that “woke ideology hurts EA cause areas”.

There are many counters to that.

“kicking the racists out might mean less rich racists giving me money for Nonlinear”
now it got me wondering: how closely is chief shithead pete thiel involved in EA? that probably wouldn’t be much, unless indirectly via his fellowship and such?
not very visibly personally that i know ,but a lotta Thiel-adjacent people involved
