Last night I tried to describe the rationalist community to a friend who had never heard of it. I struggled, but finally settled on describing it as "A school of philosophy that arose on the internet rather than in the academy."
A major route to success, imo, would be to find ways to, at least part time, financially support para-academic groups. This would also legitimize them better than currently.
