I hate to break it to you like this, but dumb people are going to reproduce no matter what. Seeing as how the literal world we all inhabit is getting hotter and hotter, for longer stretches of time, with water wars going on right now that will only get worse as it keeps staying hotter, governments around the world turning their backs on the people they are supposed to help, and the increase in plastic pollution (let alone pollution IN GENERAL), and the growing wage gap across the world, humans being literal slaves to other countries for cheap labor, and so so so many more issues, I believe that bringing in another human is indeed a shitty thing to do.
Look at humans, look at their history, look how things are going. There is no reason to continue the suffering in my eyes.
Yes but we used to have smart people reproducing to balance things out. Now smart people are taking extra measures to avoid parenthood and ignorance is being celebrated.
The time for smart people to lead has long gone, my friend. I understand your concerns, but you do really need to be more realistic about your observations. Smart people don’t want their future children to grow up in a hellscape, to be abused by those who have the power to make everything good in the world but refuse to do so, and to suffer droughts, pollution, discrimination, and all the other problems that are going on.
Smart people see the world as it is right now, can imagine what it will be like in the future, and decided that keeping the human race going is actually kind of a bad idea.
Do I want kids? Yeah, I think I’d be a decent parent. Do I want my children to grow up in a bleak as fuck future? Hell no. 90% of my time here so far has been nothing but bad. Terrible even. Why the fuck would I willingly choose to keep that torture going?
No thanks. I’ll leave it to the dumb people to procreate and further exasperate the issues on hand, so that my conscience isn’t full of regrets of making another human being have to go through this painful existence.
