> Where does this view of EA come from?

I''ll answer. I think the view comes from a different, but related group known as "The rationalists".

"The rationalists", or less wrongers, fit the bill to a Tee, of all these common criticisms of EA that people are bringing up.

And, the reason why this criticism may be misattribute to EA specifically, is because there is a large overlap between the rationalists, and EA.

The Rationalists are the ones talking about AI existential risk, and colonizing mars, and all that nonsense.
