Not sure how a television is gonna fit, but here we go

Full house, transitioning to 5 of a kind. Can be annoying to get going, but with just a bit of deck fixing it goes hard

Grapes

Somehow I don’t think the fish consented to this…

No, a large swathe of Americans are just that stupid/insane/brainwashed

For text, sure. But you can’t exactly store video or audio in book format

If someone experiences so much suffering that they are pushed to “opt out of it”, it would have been better not to force them to live and experience the suffering in the first place. Just because someone can take themselves out of it doesn’t make the suffering okay to inflict.

Ignorance is bliss, I suppose.

Enjoy your dreamland, and have a nice day

Yes, it is. And I’m just fine, I prefer not to live in idealistic delusion

Maybe educate yourself on the actual philosophy

“Existence is suffering” is a foundational tenet for many worldviews and religions, not just antinatalism. Existence is literally the first cause to all suffering - no existence, no suffering.

Acknowledging that doesn’t make me depressed or pessimistic, it’s just acceptance how things are.

You’re free to live in whatever fantasy you want, though. That’s your right.

Also, responding to differing worldviews with “get help” is generally bad form

You call it pessimism, I call it realism.

There are good things to experience, yes. If you’re already alive, then by all means, seek to find happiness and enjoyment. Don’t force someone else into that endless struggle. You can make no guarantees that their life won’t be one of pure suffering, and that’s not a risk I’m willing to take.

And again, we are destroying this planet - not just for us, but for all life on it. We are the problem.

Humans are the primary cause for global suffering. Ducks are pretty fucked tho, they could probably go as well.

Mosquitoes I shouldn’t even have to mention. I think we can all agree those fuckers need to go

I’m not saying we should kill people, I’m saying making more is wrong.

It is a nonconsensual act whereupon you are forcing life and all its travesty onto another being, when they were perfectly fine not existing.

Call me insane if you want, I couldn’t care less. Humans are a plague upon both other humans and this planet as a whole, and bringing someone else into the world to be both a victim and perpetrator of the issue is wrong.

Antinatalist here - the rhetoric in that post is horrible, and is not representative of antinatalism as a whole.

Antinatalism isn’t the belief that a certain group shouldn’t reproduce - it’s that nobody should. The world is fucked, and nonconsensually bringing anyone into it is morally reprehensible. It’s not eugenics, it’s voluntary extinctionism.

For the people that have been born, however, everyone deserves respect and equity. Ableism, or any other kind of discrimination, is just wrong, and makes you a shitty person. Just like the person who made that post.
