Because they think that wageslaves are inherently uneducated, impulsive, and driven by their emotions.("facts don't care about your feelings")

This lead to the conclusion that in order to make more wage slaves, you should instill a guilt into those perceived uneducated, impulsive, emotional individuals to compel them to breed.

That is why they attack the antinatalist train of thought with emotionally charged, often factless, ideas. Because they, once again, think that we arrived at antinatalist not by a combination of observations of the world and foresight, but merely via emotion. So they manipulate that emotion. Also, there's no real arguing against the antinatalist position. It's observably verifiably the objectively better decision for us a society, at least for now.
