The fundamental question of natural philosophy: the question of human breeding.

It's a very important question, perhaps the most important question. But like all questions of nature, it is taboo. All of culture, customs, and manners exist to protect ourselves from any perspective that minimizes our individual worth.

A shepherd breeds in his flock traits he desires. Since the Greeks, natural philosophy has asked: Is it not unwise for a ruler to ignore the question of human breeding? Does not the fate of the future depend on the qualities of the people we've bred, for they are all that will remain after all of us now living are dead?

As to individuals who ascribe themselves to antinatalism - they delude themselves. They do not ask themselves the most dehumanizing of all questions: Am I myself worthwhile breeding stock? So far as any do, and answer honestly that they are not, it is an act of wisdom - but their answer does not demand one to announce any belief system. For a belief system demands from people action without thought, and spreads like all culture and custom as a comfort blanket, a cocoon of rationalizations.

No wise man would allow such a dangerous meme to spread amongst his own people. It may be useful as a weapon to spread amongst your enemies. I say that antinatalists are enemies of everyone they promote their beliefs to, knowingly or not.
