These machines are a living misery in hell

[Darkover]

What right does anyone have to enslave you in awful shit without any control over what you are or who you are. into a hellhole where we are made of many smaller pieces easily damaged impossible to repair. Procreation is extremely selfish and in one of the worst ways possible, the offspring will suffer and die because of the process and they can't consent to any of it.

We inherit extremely weak and fragile machines to work this earth with, easily succumbing to injury sickness and diseases at most we have 2.5 billion seconds to live at most if we make until we are 80 years old

From the moment we are born we are under control and confinement of our parents we are dependent on the care and kindness of our parents, but they are heavily under control and confinement also being limited in what they can do based on how much money they have also how many hours per day they have to work to earn a living, maybe you will be kicked out onto the street as soon as you turn 18 because they can't provide for you, all your life for the vast majority will be working a wage slave job just so you can survive this isn't living it's slavery, all your life you will be dependent on other people for your survival from your employer to your love interests

That's why certain folks shouldn't procreate.
Reaxon I didnt.

Yes I understand exactly what you're talking about. It feels like my entire life has been decided by other people who society deemed were more important, richer, more confident, more sure of themselves. This goes back to high school where the popular jocks all came from wealthy local families with lots of connections, my family were poor outsiders and my social group reflected that. All the noise as a kid and a teen about my whole life ahead was a scam, really it's just a few short decades living a life someone has already decided for you based on your family wealth and connections.

And this is still not even as close to how bad it can get...

This is only a portrayal of what happens in most "civilized", developed, "1st world" countries — i.e. the ones that have managed to virtually erradicate any form of forced child labor... (by putting up — and actually enforcing — child's rights laws and statutes.)

In many countries, unfortunately, we can still see parents having kids in order to increase the workforce and the net income of the family. They are literally having kids to use them as their own personal slaves.

Since slavery was officially abolished in the 19th century, the next best thing to "having a slave" is to have a child. No questions asked.

To have the ability to exist as a human truly is such a horrific and repulsive burden, it's disturbing to me how many choose to procreate even know there is endless potential for cruelty and suffering in this world. Existence itself really is just an unnecessary harm, it's such a terrible tragedy how life even exists at all.
