      Yeah there's an equal number of weird racists on both "sides" of the "debate" but honestly the pro-natalist racists are in such a superior position in the culture war their side is still "the racist side"https://twitter.com/benjanun_s/status/1329756268496527361 …

      /r/childfree can get really eugenistic and weird but people who whine about that sub are also really weird. Calling having children 'a normal healthy part of the human experience' is... strange. pic.twitter.com/qeeWR64diM

      Like put it this way, the eugenics position is to apply it selectively You say "I want EVERYONE to have babies" but really you only make the effort to help people like you have babies Or "I want NO ONE to have babies" but really you only try to stop people different from you

      And it seems really obvious to me that nowadays the racist pro-natalists are much more successful at doing the former than the anti-natalists are at free latter At least the ones who call themselves antinatalists

      There is a really ugly history of ecofascism in Western liberalism, paying for forced sterilization and abortion in the "Third World", joking about countries with too many babies that need "birth control in the drinking water" But Reddit antinatalists ain't that

      The big complaint about r/childfree is how *personal* the beefs are, how much time the people spend there on their own trauma and resentment etc They all, personally, don't want to have babies and are mad at their own friends, family and colleagues who have babies

      And tbh, for a lot of them it's hard to blame them too much? Like, a lot of folks on that sub need therapy but even more they need to have not spent years of their lives being belittled and dismissed about not wanting/liking kids.

      (This doesn't excuse them being racist, obviously, but it does excuse them being very angry and saying snarky things about "breeders" or whatever.)

      The whole thing about subreddits and the reason they're "circlejerks" is that they're the next best thing a lot of people have to support groups And the fact they're "on the public Internet" is why they're accessible to people who don't have access to support groups

      So yeah when people go "This is the public Internet, everything is open for debate, if you want a support group you need to go to the trouble of finding and joining a closed group that requires verification" they're being shitty

          At the same time, it's why you can't use these places for *research* or as *information* Like, no, of course the people on r/childfree aren't being scrupulously honest all the time about their situation, and they often wildly exaggerate and everything they say is biased

          That's the whole point It's not a courtroom, I wouldn't go to a real-life support group either and be like "Time to do some detective work and see how many of these so-called victims are actually abusers trying to justify their own abuse"
