What made me rage this week: Nothing so far.
I have a few qualms with effective altruism, but ultimately feel they’re affecting positive change. Really interesting article, thanks for linking it.
Same. I am unsure whether earning more than everyone to give more than everyone is welrong because it supports the system that brings inequalities in the first place. I believe we need political/international changes for a real solution.
I agree. But, giving is better than hoarding in an already corrupt system. I think their methodology for determining what’s altruistic is flawed, though. Only giving efficiently ignores that not all positive initiatives can be efficient, by nature. Like it’s cheaper and easy to buy a thousand people a good pair of shoes, not so much to buy fewer people a good computer or a home.
This is addressed by some authors of the effective altruism movement, but I don’t have enough insight to go into greater detail.
