I stumbled across the EA movement only very recently and it made me immediately raise my eyebrows quite a few times.
On one hand, the tones sounded eerily similar to any "lifestyle maximization" trend out there.
On the other hand, one really can't help but notice a huge lack of diversity in the community, or at least the most vocal parts of the community — more than EA, it seems more like PP, Privileged Philanthropy.
Thanks for sharing Tyler's essay, I'm definitely going to read it, the "good ideas going bad" subject is always quite interesting.
