I never attempted to lay out guidelines. As an general time I think anyone who rolls the dice when they can pass on a condition is horribly selfish and lacking in empathy.

Experience has shown me that the people who are thankful for their life is in the minority compared to the people who suffer their life.

You just experienced what the people in the antinatalism community experience all the time. They put out a reasoned opinion and get brigaded with “BUT KIDS ARE GOOD YOU’RE A HORRIBLE PERSON REEEEEE”

The conclusion of antinatalism seems to be a pessimistic extreme,

I might suggest that this is good enough reason to not want to reproduce. If your own life has been shit, you wouldn’t want to inflict that on others.

This is the case. One thing is treating all humans with respect, and another is knowingly contributing to someone having a more difficult life. You can love the ones who already exist without passing on your genetic nonsense to new ones.
