Luke has suggested that part of what CFAR does is the movement-building work that MIRI used to do. I'm not quite sure how to interpret this suggestion, but maybe idea is that CFAR is set up in such a way that spread "worrying about x-risk" memes ends up being an important side-effect of what they do. This is something I will probably start a thread on next time I have $ I want to donate to charity.
