Recently I read this article about a study that tested how effective various purely philosophical arguments affected donations. I thought that Singer's and Lindauer's argument was really well-put, so, inspired by them, I wanted to make a short introduction that you can send to people that might want to know about effective altruism, or donate somewhere, but just don't have the time to delve deeper into the subject-matter.
Essentially, I tried to just keep their original argument, but to present it in video form.
