Longtermism's Philosophical Credibility After FTX - Footnote 23

NoteThe claim mentions David Thorstad and his argument in *Philosophy and Public Affairs*, but this source only discusses Alice Crary's views on longtermism. The claim states that Alice Crary wrote in *Radical Philosophy* in 2023, arguing that longtermists give existential threats such weight that they deprioritize actual suffering in the world we live in, and that the FTX collapse brought this structural feature of the ideology into public view. While the source supports the first part of this statement, it does not explicitly state that the FTX collapse brought this structural feature of the ideology into public view. It mentions the FTX collapse in relation to a change in the public mood and the scrutiny of longtermism's ties to FTX, but not directly as revealing the prioritization of existential threats over current suffering.
