Despite What Billionaires Say: The Scientific Consensus on Overpopulation Is A Growing Concern
Welcome to our antinatalist discussion community, a space devoted to exploring and discussing the philosophical position of antinatalism. Here, we delve into the belief that procreation is morally wrong, focusing on the ethical, ecological, and societal aspects that surround this perspective. We encourage respectful dialogues, intellectual curiosity, and an open-minded approach towards understanding the implications and challenges of antinatalism in our world.

Antinatalism @lemmy.world MyPhilosophyAccount @lemmy.one The DNA Delusion
Life is programmed with an existence bias and the compulsion to continue on without any end goal or meaning. We will call that “the DNA delusion.”
This essay takes a position against the DNA delusion, and it is the full realization that God is dead, unlike many flavors of modern atheism which still dance with his corpse. This dance is far from a freebie, and we are about to tally the cost. This essay is one last reality check, addressing all the delusions other secular/rational/intellectual movements continue to hold dear. It exposes all the harm, insanity, fallacy, and failure caused by life's reluctance to accept certain truths.
There have been around 20 trillion trillion (trillion 2 times is not a typo) sentient life forms, including trillions of mammals and 108 billion humans that have been tortured, violated, raped, molested, degraded, and murdered by nature.

Antinatalism @lemmy.world IndictEvolution @lemmy.world Favorite antinatalist YouTubers?
I really quite like Benedictines TheVegan because he seems to handle the philosophy very well. Most antinatalists I see online are seething most of the time, which I completely understand, there's a lot to be angry about, I just find it impressive how Benedictines is able to approach it in a friendly way, I think people are more likely to be receptive to the philosophy when presented the way he does it. Also, to be clear, I'm not really saying I think all antinatalists should be friendly all the time, I think some amount of aggression is warranted, as sometimes people are just genuinely evil and do not care. I have seen natalists in debates literally admit they know they're causing harm and do not care. In these cases, I say it's time for fucking war lol.
