I agree that this post doesn’t make philosophical argument for it’s position, but I don’t require that for every post. I value it as an observation of how the EA movement has affected this particular person, and as criticism.
Just to make my position really clear: I never said this post needed to make a philosophical argument for its position, rather that if a post wasn’t a philosophical argument we shouldn’t judge it by the standards we apply to a philosophical argument.
Then I tried to figure out an alternative standard by which to judge this post.
