"Effective altruist" means someone who donates significant amounts of money, or works directly and identifies as an EA, in a generally recognised EA cause area or in a plausibly effective cause area that arguably fulfils the EA criteria of being important, neglected and tractable. "Neo-Nazi" is only to be understood as someone who politically approves of Adolf Hitler and/or the NSDAP. It specifically does NOT mean someone who merely shares certain political or empirical beliefs with Hitler (for example, "smoking is bad", which is something that Hitler did believe).

@Julian I think that while you might reasonably suspect (I do, to at least some degree) that Tegmark is lying about the extent of his sympathy for the anti-immigrant radical right in some broader sense, the evidence that he knew the people in question were literal Hitler fans, rather than just right-wing populists who hate immigrants, is fairly scant, let alone that Tegmark himself admires Hitler. In fact, according to Wikipedia, Tegmark's Dad was Jewish (though not citation is given.) If that's right, it's very unlikely he admires Hitler specifically, whatever his true political views more generally.
via longtermism, EA comes from a line of philosophies going back to a belief in eugenics. while surely many individuals will reject such an association for themselves, the reality is that there is a core to EA that, unfortunately, has an important piece of overlap with nazism. and with nazism on the rise these days... well I feel this market's conditions are inevitable.
