If you take away the mendacious verbage humans spew & observe their behavior, they are no different than insects, bugs creeping around, consuming, reproducing, taking stuff from one place & piling it up somewhere else, like ants, mindless, senseless activity

CRISPR technology can now spread infertility in mosquito populations to eradicate the species. Imagine a future antinatalist scientist enables this to work on all animals including humans and deploys it successfully. Would this be the first (and only) exception to your statement?

I don't understand how it would be an "exception" to my tweet above. Parasitical bugs are well known for killing off their host and, in the process, killing themselves off. All of life is vicious, predatorial, unnecessary and stupid.

Killing host and self is indeed futile and pointless, as is all insect and human behaviour. However, would you describe it as futile and pointless for an antinatalist scientist to finally end eons of agony on earth by successfully rendering all animals including humans infertile?

Well, it's gonna happen sooner or later, anyhow. Either way, the entire experiment called "life" is an exercise in futility. If we end it now or it ends later via natural process of entropy, it was all for nothing.
