Bro, effective altruism is a simple thing: if you have some altruistic goal, you’ll get better results if you choose things that are good at getting the goal. It doesn’t require that your utility function matches anyone else’s. For instance, I don’t think life (including human) is inherently worth anything so it’s not a big deal if a bunch of kids somewhere die of guinea worm. But for my objectives my charitable giving yields better outcomes. I’m happy with that.
