My contention: Why care if the cunts tear chunks out of each other in a wretched hellscape free of the kind and considerate. If the majority are ultimately, to a greater or lesser degree, nowt but bovine beasts of prey, isn't abandoning antinatalism or encouraging pronatalism, by breeding or blessing, just feeding these future souls to a den of wolves?
I definitely leaned in this direction for a long time, but I did so due to things outside my control & the planned ignorance that was structured to accompany it. I had no $, no good options for a husband until I was 35, no support system for kids, a lot of extreme examples all around me that were not good for children, often leaving them in really sad situations, & zero understanding of how to properly care for a kid, which is why I felt this way. I didn't want to hurt someone innocent or have them live in poverty, so I decided not to have any.
I knew a lot of people close to me & all around me that did, & I saw the lives they ended up having, their kids got the worst of it most of the time. I know most people just see kids as instant poverty; nobody who wants to change this is willing to deal with this issue.
I don't give a damn what you are, but being raped is something I detest. I hope they caught the nonces and they got a beating every day. I am sorry you went through that, TWICE ffs!! 😞
While not an anti-natalist, I was a non-natalist, or anatalist, for similar reasons: I thought I was too likely to screw things up. I realized my error too late, but basically for reasons similar to the ones leading you away from anti-natalism. Besides, the Benatar asymmetry seems to guarantee that no good can come of it, whichever meaning of that phrase, "no good can..." you use.
I wasn’t ready to be a parent when the time was correct… my experience with my parents was too bad, I learned nothing except what not to do, so consequently I just didn’t do it.
I don’t know, maybe I’m missing a parenting gene and it’s a good thing to reduce it. But if you accept the antinatalists’ logic that they’re the good people, then they’re leaving a nastier world behind them, great job guys.
We can all partake in parenting to some degree, natural children or not. It transcends biology. In a sense, we must parent ourselves or remain forever children.
Antinatalism is really gay.

Hmmm… well, I ‘d say humanity is… on a spectrum (rolls around in silent laugbter)

That’s true too! I think a lot of people our age lived in poverty so long we really never considered kids.

Thank you so much! You wouldn't believe the number of people who have actually given me shit for it. Too bad their parents weren't antinatalists.
You had shit for being a victim? What sort of world are we in? Unbelievable
Oh, I still do. From every opportunist political nerd and bigots of every color.
Unbelievable Ann. You hold your head up high, you have done nothing wrong. 🙏💪❤️❤️
Well, I’ve done other things wrong, but thank you so much!!!
Yeh well, you would need 3 lifetimes to catch up with me Ann 😂👌🙏

For me it’s curiosity, but maybe one day I’ll love someone who doesn’t stick a knife in my back. Then again, I probably would keep living for my cat.
