I am curious if the majority of leftist people don’t actually want children haha. There doesn’t seem to be any studies about it, but my convos with leftists is that most don’t seem to want to have children either for the uncertainty of the future or because they are too expensive or because it wouldn’t give them too much time to organize or whatever other reason that I forgot about.
I personally lean on not having children because I have been laid off of several jobs and having someone financially dependent to me scares the shit out of me and would put my stress levels through the roof.
No, it doesn’t. They don’t exist therefore there is no weight in their existence. Something that does not exist has no moral component to it whatsoever
So what you’re saying is that potential children have no rights that should be protected, no childcare, no healthcare infrastructure set up ahead of time, no ordinances banning or restricting smoking, no land usage and zoning laws, just pop out kids like it’s going out of style and they deserve no equal consideration?
You have to be trolling.
No, that’s exactly what I’m saying. Those who don’t exist have no moral considerations whatsoever as measuring any experience of a non-being is impossible
Not that I ever took your pseudo-intellectual contrarianism seriously, but this is the point that you lost me. I genuinely hope that you take a chill pill and self-reflect. I hope you find some kind of peace, in the future.
And I am not the one who needs to find peace as I am not upset by the basic concepts of Marxism and biology
If someone cannot experience anything then the conditions of reality are irrelevant. They do not exist and therefore cannot be a moral agent. How in the world is this contrarian? Almost every single ideological or philosophical framework I can think of accepts this concept. It’s essentially universal.
