Antinatalism is not about killing everybody, contrary to popular belief. #Antinatalism is simply about trying to get people to not procreate. No one decides for another what is best for them. ANs merely put forth reasons why it's best not to procreate.

Yes, but as philosopher Samuel Scheffler explains in his book "Death and the Afterlife", we would not like living the scenarios of the human extinction movies "Melancholia" or "Children of Men".

In Melancholia, people are hit by a meteor. In Children of Men, people became infertile. None of these scenarios have anything to do with pushing a red button and killing everybody...

Agreed. What I'm saying is that although I personally don't want to have any kids & understand that being born is bad luck,I'm still happy other people have them. Because I hate the idea of our species going extinct anytime soon! If it will happen in a million years,I don't care.

So I would be satisfied with seeing our population shrunk to a sustainable level... #overpopulation
