“Because I was bought up to be a moral person who put the wellbeing of others before myself - why would I inflict a world that defines a person by their job on anyone?”
My parents asked when I planned on having kids, and I answered something along the lines of “I love my unborn children FAR too much to consider bringing them into this hell-hole.”
…that was maybe 5 years ago? They haven’t TOUCHED that topic since, lol.
Man now I want these clowns to ban jacking off so I can make that joke. No wait…
You have to ask, is our problem our reluctance to become monsters?
I know the monster I become is drug addict nihalist who is constantly in and out of prison. Probably die from lung cancer in the next 5-10 years.
The guilt of something like charismatic cult leader or disingenuous pastor would crush me. I’m too nervous/anxious to scam/con. Then my empathy is way too much to be an enforcer or offer dark web services.
Nope, if I gave up, I’m the guy they point at and say, “don’t do drugs kids.”
Our reluctance to become monsters despite the incentive gives me hope.
Let’s hope we can hold out.
I am entirely convinced that this movement was started by rich oligarchy to get the poors to ‘breed’ themselves out of existence.
People will be fucking and having kids regardless. The people who never really wanted kids anyway just fall back on this as an excuse rather than being honest with themselves or are too lame to just say no rather than feeling like they need to justify it. I’ll admit, it’s a convenient excuse that gives yourself a nice big virtue signalling pat on the back though.
It’s more to do with the collapse of civilization. I have kids, but if I knew then, what I know now, I wouldn’t have had them.
Consume less doomer content mate lol.
Cheating with Kurzgesagt but there’s plenty to back it all up:

Most of this is just CO2 as well. Not even Methane which we’re getting on top of now too. Turns out renewable energy + batteries is OP.
