I downvoted, not because I necessarily thought the topic was bad, but because I’d kinda prefer “EA community stuff” to live on the EA Forum (where I see you also posted). I realize the line between rationalist community and EA community is blurry sometimes, and you maybe could have written a similar post about rationalist communities. But I think there are some subtle distinctions in norms and culture that are better to not blur together more.

...but the problems being highlighted are, if anything, much more specifically applicable to the rationalist side of the divide. So this seems wrong.
