yeah. it's important to remember that in general, charities are fucking incompetent and suing them for being useless MFs tends to do nothing useful.

Someone who really hates you can try to make trouble using the statements, but it's mostly trying to get the IRS to pull your charitable status. But the IRS is also aware there are a lot of dumb assholes who try to make trouble. Depends if someone serious can make it stick.

The main issue is if the IRS thinks it's a scam in charitable clothing and not a genuine charity. But I think that our friends are very sincere in their charitable purposes and generally incompetent, and the IRS is extremely used to that combination.

I've noted on Reddit sneerclub previously that this is not an outrageous sort of amount for a Bay Area nonprofit to pay a C-level or a high level specialist. We might look and go "he's a high level specialist in dumb nonsense", but it's not a facially outrageous number. Those region 2 DVDs aren't going to buy themselves, you know.

greatest point against him being a rationalist is the 262 word manifesto, it would be 20,000 words with sections numbered I. II. III. and possibly diagrams

"There was a post, [pause], I forget who wrote it" <- the kind of thing I have said several times attempting to avoid leaking rationalist-evidence-bits.

gotta keep that power level under wraps

Keep in mind that, for theologically conservative (“the Bible is historically and spiritually accurate”) Christians like myself,

rationalists whoo

comment:

I was at Manifest as a volunteer, and I also saw much of the same behaviour as you. If I had known scientific racism or eugenics were acceptable topics of conversation there, I wouldn’t have gone. I’m increasingly glad I decided not to organise a talk.

EA needs to recognise that even associating with scientific racists and eugenicists turns away many of the kinds of bright, kind, ambitious people the movement needs. I am exhausted at having to tell people I am an EA ‘but not one of those ones’. If the movement truly values diversity of views, we should value the people we’re turning away just as much.

my brother in the Acausal Robot God, I have some unfortunate news about what your fellow EAs have espoused for the past twenty years.

Austin from Manifest responds that leftist views would obviously much more damaging to EA than racist ones, because reasons.

and yet you signed up to Awful Systems

Every article on pronatalism in the past few years has been these two Thiel-sponsored white nationalist dweebs and nobody else. Why the fuck does the Guardian fall for this shit too.
