Geoffrey, I am really disapointed by your shallow take, you're better than this. It has nothing to do about hatred. Read Benatar's book, there he offers a cold logical and reasonable approach to what he calls "the assymetry between being and not being".

Would you elaborate on a video/blog? I have yet to find a single counter-argument that is not a red herring.

Benatar's argument is totally circular. His negative utilitarianism assumes that only suffering counts, & pleasure can never offset it, & then concludes that net utility is negative. If you delete all positive numbers then the average of all possible numbers is negative. So what?
