I think in that case the thing he is attacking him for is leveraging people’s desire to be a morally good person in a way that they don’t endorse (and plays into various guilt narratives), to get them to give him money, and to get them to dedicate their life towards Effective Altruism, and via that technique, preventing a substantial fraction of the world’s top talent to dedicate themselves towards actually important problems, and also causing them various forms of psychological harm.
