Hi everyone! Just your friendly, vegan anti-natalist here and also someone who really looks forward to using something that simply can't be owned by some corporation. Pronouns are they/them .
What are some of your biggest reasons for being antinatalist?
I'm a parent, but there's a lot of merit to the arguments of antinatalism, and I'm curious to hear your reasoning for it. I struggled a lot with the moral implications of becoming a parent, and the book Debating Procreation: Is It Wrong to Reproduce? was a fascinating read for me.
Pregnancy eventually 'happened', and we decided to give our shot at the parenting thing and to do our best to give our child the best life they could have, and it's been a challenging, yet fulfilling experience thus far for us.
I still agree with many of the arguments put forth by antinatlists, though.
