It’s disturbing, how many people eagerly embrace eugenics and anti-natalism as long as they can cite a left-wing cause like ecology as their reason

Gee, I dunno, maybe everyone having 3 or more kids in the long term will lead to overpopulation issues we cannot resolve even with improved technology.

How are the two on the same level?

Antinatalism is a strawman slur against anyone that questions the viability of infinite growth.

So what is calling anyone who has a child a breeder?

Because I'm curious what your opinion is, and you've made a point of speaking on a very closely related topic.

It's a diversion to another topic. No thanks.

What does antinatalism being a slur have to do with the topic at hand?

[–] brianary@lemmy.zip 0 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

It looks to me like that same feeling toward any population concerns are the clear sentiment of the op, even if they don't state it so openly. I guess you didn't see that? No sense trying to beat this to death, we're seeing different things.

Well, it looks like you're seeing two side to this topic and I, and possibly the op, see at least 3.
