You're just doing exactly what conservatives want. Now they will have 20 kids and you will have zero, and the future generation will be further fucked.

If you think growing up in a conservative household guarantees a kid becomes conservative, you didn't grow up in a conservative household.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

No, I'm doing what I want which is not to have kids. Regardless of what conservative fuckheads want or think.

Then this doesn't apply to you why are you commenting

They just want more plebe workers, this is almost certainly not what they want

I'd still rather not force a conscious being into that existence. If I can't move the needle myself, I'm not going to give up and and create a human just to put this massive burden on them.

I don't want to create a little person into this flaming hellhole just in time for them to watch everything go extinct from the frontlines of the resource wars. Fascists and their descendants can have it, I guess, fuck this shit.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah but the future generation will be all conservatives, by your logic. So fuck it, I'll be dead and happy!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

I wouldn't subject a child to being the 1 in 20 that was against fascism. I would rather they be the last ones left and burn themselves out.

I think about this a lot, and the first scene of Idiocracy.

Nobody owes children to society. I don't have children because I despise infants and I don't want the complication, period.

I'm not young, though, but I've never missed having children.
