+1(agreement) and −1(tone): you are correct that good arguments against doom exist, but this way of writing about it feels to me unnecessarily mean to both OP and to the ‘extinctionists’
I think (anti-)extinctionism is a better term than notkilleveryoneism. I agree that “mindkill” is a bit stronger connotation than necessary, though. My annoyance with a one-sided view matching Eliezer’s in many of the newbie posters comes through.
