I created a Slack workspace!
Here's the invite link: EA Left/Progressive Wing Slack (name not final)
Jan 10, 2025
The Slack workspace hasn't gained much traction yet, some members are slowly trickling in. I think a community-building effort is needed, so we can do activities/discussions to keep the workspace a bit livelier.
Notes
It seems like a Facebook group could be created for specific topics in left-wing thought (like economics and forms of government)
I feel like some people would also prefer a Discord server or something that's just not a Slack workspace. I bet it would depend on the preference of the people who would be a part of this group, considering the amount of inactive groups out there, I don't think there is a consensus on where to go.
David can presumably answer this with the cross-tabs. My guess is that French and Scandinavian EAs also say they are left wing more frequently than right wing.
Also, while you're right there are geographical differences between countries along the left-right axis, I don't think you can summarize it as 'Americans are more right wing'. On many issues US leftists are much more extreme than europeans.
