Yup—although in the case of EA, that’s still likely to be a very slow process. This isn’t the sort of thing that can go viral. It takes months or years of cultivating before someone transfers from complete outsider to core member.
To clarify, I also don’t think EA has much potential as a social movement even if marketed properly. Specific EA beliefs are much more spreadable memes down the line IMO.

I don’t think that’s a problem. We don’t need to think in terms of corporate quarter results but are free to think more long-term.
Focusing on quick fixes isn’t what successful movement building is about.
