Hey buddy, you're up against people who've only "learned about EA" as a third- or fourth-hand vibecloud around FTX.
Don't bring any of that firsthand knowledge here. You're also not allowed to reference any of the actual writing or pledges or organizations actually in the EA ecosystem. It's Twitter vibes or nothing, mmkay?
