      Is that your guilt speaking? Already pop a few out without thinking at all about what their future lives must look like? Nice one.

          From about 20 years+ ago actually. Curious how many kids you’ve got over there fellah, assuming you even know, “Assman”.

      You’re arguing with a bunch of fat, lazy, loser kids who couldn’t get laid if their life depended on it. Seen people on here say they would rather die than life in a post-industrial landscape. OK.

      I’M taking a moral stance!”

      “Nah. You just can’t find anyone that would deign to reproduce with you. You also flunked history class if you think this is bad.”

      I got 2 little kids. Pretty sure they would rather exist than not. Should I ask them?

        Are you saying that you feel morally obliged to have as many children as you possibly can? If not, what about all of the dozens of children that you haven’t had, would they rather exist than not?

        Lol. What is this, fucking high school? Grow up. These are adult topics.

        Seen people on here say they would rather die than life in a post-industrial landscape.

        Holy fuck. What’s at stake is far, far worse than whatever you think “post industrial” means. Supply chain issues that make the COVID inflation look appealing, mass migration causing absolute havoc as entire cities flee rising sea levels and entire countries lose the ability grow food. Literal food shortages and mass starvation. Wars over resources we take for granted like fresh water.

        Personally, I’ll be trying to struggle through it but I don’t blame anyone for preferring to check out instead.

        Pretty sure they would rather exist than not. Should I ask them?

        Flawless logic. As someone else already stated, you should follow your logic to it’s logical end. Nonstop baby making because each new life will, shocker, prefer not to die once it’s been instantiated.

        I guess I should ask my kids too? Oh, wait, I saw the writing on the wall years ago and got a vasectomy. No kids to ask because I didn’t want to bring new life into this fucked up world.

          Man, I was really wondering why you’re taking such a weird stance…

          got a vasectomy

          Aaaaah, so it’s just post-purchase rationalisation.

            Lol. Seriously. You absolutely are not worth the effort but just pretend I actually went through the trouble of making an El Risitas video with subtitles mocking that line of thinking and maybe you’ll understand how utterly wrong you are and how desperate your attempt to frame my position is.
