Seems like most people here are antinatalist so I wanted to talk about it.
I try not to underestimate the stupidity of the average person yet I'm still surprised at how few people are antinatalist, some even actively make fun of us even though we harm nobody, although I should have expected that as debates on morality usually get pretty heated, maybe not as much as debates on politics and religion though.
Even some absurdists/existential nihilists accept procreation even though life has no objective meaning, why force someone to face the absurdity of existence when the nonexistent don't even desire meaning for anything?
It really shows how none of us see the world how it really is, suicidality and depression aren't exactly traits that evolution favors so it's obvious that we would evolve to assign lower importance to the bad in life even if it makes us completely delusional, you don't need to see the world how it really is to survive and procreate.
We humans pride ourselves in having unique cognitive abilities that no other animal has yet our mind is so limited, we still can't agree on even the most basic issues.
Would like to hear your thoughts on antinatalism/why you became antinatalist if you are one.
BTW this is my first post hope you don't mind me discussing philosophy.
