For those just discovering Effective Altruism (EA), know that when journalists, etc. talk about EA in the context of Silicon Valley, they're talking about *longtermism*.

This also plays into TESCREAL ideologies (longtermism specifically) and ties into Curtis Yarvin's talk about the need for "a humane alternative to genocide" for unproductive people.
