    I believe that its pointless to argue this way or that about antinatalism, as we no longer have control of a population encroaching 8 billion. It just becomes a moot point to bash each other on over the internet (which can be said about a multitude of other subjects).

    I’m not going to have kids. That’s just what I want. Going extreme on antinatalism or pronatalism is just circling back to telling other people what they should do with their bodies. Everything is just so extreme these days. Its do or die in the eyes of the public, no matter what you do, and its grating.

      The debate shows… the next generation it’s OK to have strong feelings both ways?

      (initially I was going to make a point that seemed on shaky ground given search engines exist - “not everyone has formed their opinion yet” so for those [young] people, just check out a couple opposing books from the local library and that’s sufficient? Ooooh, what about when they want to debate what they read! Ground feels less shaky!)

        It really all boils down to “live how you want as long as you’re not bothering others”. If you believe heavily in it, then live by it, but stop slamming it into the heads of people who believe the opposite or just don’t care.

        It’s part of the reason why younger gens cringe at religion. “Do this or you will go to hell, but do it through us because you’ll go to hell if you do it through another religion.” It’s enough to make anyone balk, and rightfully so. The ground is always shaky, it just doesn’t feel as shaky if you shake with it.

        …Now I want a shake.
