Since joining Mastodon I've learned what Effective Altruism actually is (I thought it was just evaluating charities for which ones do the most good for their funding) and now I'm slightly paranoid about all the other things I might think I'm in favour of without truly understanding.

Which I guess is an illustration of just how effectively good branding can brainwash us
