I don't associate myself with that particular group of people, nor did I in any way condone such behaviour, nor do I support long-termists and so on.

My comment was mostly calling out the hypocrisy of some EAs, Long-termists, and the likes. It points out the myopic, self-centered, irrational, and too self-important view, the often exhibited messiah complex, and of course the absence of humility.

Yes, apologies, and I didn't mean to sound negative. Unfortunately a lot of nuance gets lost in writing..
