Given (my assumptions about) the base rate of the alleged crime, it doesn’t seem very credible to me that “numerous MIRI employees, board members, and donors” are all guilty of it. If the accusation were that one person had committed a serious crime and the rest of an organization were covering it up, that would seem at least plausible; but the notion that MIRI is somehow secretly a criminal syndicate does not seem to pass the laugh test.
In cases where it might not suffice, the quote and your comment do. I suggest deleting it and sending a private message. I wouldn’t had found the page if not for your comment.
Per Vulture’s comment, I have removed the specifics of the (ludicrous) accusation from my comment, and the link in the original post has now also been removed.

It’s probably better not to directly quote the accusations here.
Reasonable; redacted a bit out of an abundance of caution.
The remaining quote still suffices to find the website, FYI.

Since the post we’re commenting on is a link to the same website, that ship has probably sailed.
I think you’re probably underestimating the base rate.
But in that that context it also wouldn’t really be anything worth covering up.
