LOL, are you seriously arguing that the Flames are already donating every possible dollar they can? That's a pretty damned terrible argument even by your pretty low standards.
It's also proven by studies. Basically all studies into the subject. It's just not how people work.
"Effective altruism" is an idea which has not proven to be particularly effective. It's not particularly ineffective either, but really it's in large part because of few outlier projects, and it's never been proven that the effective altruism movement has had a significant impact in how effectively money is donated.

I'm pretty sure you just made this up. There's an entire effective altruism movement led by some pretty smart people, including Steve Pinker, Will MacAskill, Peter Singer and Bill Gates, who would all say you're wrong about this.

Again, false dichotomy. The Flames are not into effective altruism or donating to malaria, and aren't suddenly going to get into it.
You're also misrepresenting your own position quite blatantly.
You're not now, you have never and you never will actually demand or even suggest that the Flames should donate to malaria or in general that they should get into effective altruism. That's just random BS you bring up because it happens to superficially support what you said earlier.
All you are actually saying is you don't think they need to support their own workers. That's the sum of what you're saying in practical terms. The rest is tangentially related word salad. Your schtick is cute but it's really old by now. I generally steer away from arguing with you because you're so incapable of having an honest argument, but when we're talking about a situation.where real life people's ability to pay their rents is literally on the line, I really feel a need to just tell you how badly I want to say STFU.
I have neither time nor respect for your BS position.
