I've worked for EA orgs in the developing world and one thing that confuses me is how little effort there seems to be to engage people say in Africa in EA or longtermism.
I get it from a simplistic fundraising approach today, but surely that creates major risk for sustainability of longtermism as a philosophy, if changes to global power structures and birth rate changes over decades and centuries mean that future norms are no longer set by euro-centric culture?
