If you think it's admirable that people take some of the money they made busting unions and defending monopolies and buying politicians and donate it to "solve" problems they are still causing, I have a gift for you. https://t.co/NTNdBozYbS — PolitiTweet.org

And the problem is not just them. It’s us. We keep believing in them. In Musk, in Gates, in SBF. OK, he gives to Democrats? Let me trust him. No. The structure’s the thing. They will always disappoint you because their job is to protect hoarded wealth at your expense. — PolitiTweet.org

These men are not serial killers. They are just really limited men. They don’t have much range. They are not the kind of person you would sit next to and feel they asked you interesting questions and showed care. They are code men who then plutespread over everything. — PolitiTweet.org

These men tend to live in their heads and favor algorithms and formulas that can explain human society to them. Because they are code people, not people people. That’s fine. But when they begin to privately govern us, it becomes a problem. Their blind spots become our crises. — PolitiTweet.org

I have met so many of the men who promote ideas like Effective Altruism. Honestly, they tend to be this kind of man who is a militant utilitarian because the complexity of human society isn’t something he grasps. Why we elevate their blind spots into an ideology is beyond me. — PolitiTweet.org

The signs were right in front of us. This Effective Altruism movement is a con. It promoted “earning to give,” which was our existing plutocratic norm on steroids: make as much money as you can, even in socially destructive ways, and then donate to soothe your soul. — PolitiTweet.org
