anti-natalism
It's low-key ecofash.
"To reduce global suffering" yes that's the eco-fascism. Population control is the eugenics equivalent of austerity. You don't get to tell anyone for any reason if they're allowed to have children or not. That's not your call, that's not anyone else's call but the parents'.
Not only is it deeply immoral, like all fascist pseudoscience, it also doesn't work. Just ask China's population control policy how that went.
My stance is unchanged. Anti-natalism is built on a foundation of population control, regardless of what it claims to be.
Fuck right off. Sorry your definition of fascism gets you and your friends off the hook. I deal in the real world where shit has consequences.
Obscene projection. How did you write that whole ass comment and never for a millisecond think "wait, i'm the one doing that"
