        Why is this not entitled, “The Case for Not Having Children”? ...which is what it’s *actually* about?

        Anti-natalism only proves that life as a utilitarian is not worth living.

        Thank you! I never knew there were fellow anti-natalists, nor even that there was a term to describe myself 🙂 Whoever said “Life is like a 100m sprint toward a brick wall” nailed it

        Mr. Sunshine. I’m sure he’d be delightful to have over for a dinner party. He should connect with the dude arguing we should eliminate libraries. I bet they’d be besties.

        If life was so meaningless, why would the suffering of future generations matter one way or the other? Very subjective and illogical conclusion to a supposedly nihilistic philosophy
