Stubborn Attachments by @tylercowen IS OUT(!) This book finally knocked loose, with minimal pain, an ever-wiggling concern that Effective Altruism may only be part of the grand human story (though a critical one). https://smile.amazon.com/Stubborn-Attachments-Prosperous-Responsible-Individuals/dp/1732265135/ …

I can see a case for counting animal welfare as "redistributive", but usually people use that word to talk about redistributing wealth to other humans, so IMO this usage is a little misleading.

Fair; I'm trying to do a lot with 280 characters! I'm trying to point at the long-standing "redivide the pie" vs. "grow the pie" debate, and I don't think causes like animal welfare (or, indeed, most traditional philanthropy) exist outside that — or *can* exist outside that.
