The start of the post can't be accused of strawmanning if you just include all possible variations of accusations taps forehead Amount of different groups he accuses of hating EA 10, proof 0 (The political compass later looks related, but actually doesn't prove anything Scott just said apart from being a vague handwave (and increasing the accusations count even more). Scotts, a scott never change(s)
Also note that his list of 'this is what we did' doesn't actually compare their costs to the costs of similar charities (nor do I think it mentions the total costs of the whole organization) nor does it include the negative effects of convincing people to work into high paying but bad jobs to tithe their 10%. (also note how he compares yearly deaths in the usa with the overtime malaria thing, which just is weird if you just look past 'numbers are the same'). Anyway Scott you know how much the malaria lives cost per dollar spend, now calculate the lost lives due to the FTX disaster using those same numbers ;) .
Anyway tag yourself im a zealot.
