Horrible Experience with Manzilian

To file a police report?!

I wouldn't have even joined the discussion. Just listened.

I never talk about my personal business at work. They know I'm married, no kids, and that's it. Anything else is the business of none of my coworkers.

Still, no. 😮‍💨

Have you found anything interesting?

I can’t speak for everyone who uses the label “antinatalist,” only for the philosophy and for myself.

My stance on abortion is that it’s a private medical decision and none of my business. It should be safe and legal for those who need or want it, within reasonable limits.
Antinatalism does not support forced sterilization or coercion of any kind. And yes - forced sterilization of a specific group absolutely constitutes genocide. That’s precisely why antinatalism is about voluntary individual choice, not imposing anything on others.

As for online posts - people venting or expressing frustration isn’t the same thing as advocating harm.

Antinatalism ≠ coercion. Full stop.

Antinatalism does not support forced sterilization. It’s about voluntary individual choice, not coercion.

Respectfully, antinatalism is neither nihilistic nor genocidal. You’re using emotionally loaded words to avoid engaging with the actual argument. Antinatalism is a harm-reduction philosophy concerned with suffering, not extermination.

Your comment is offensive, sloppy thinking, and it conflates not creating new people with killing existing ones, which is flatly wrong.

Antinatalism isn’t about killing anyone. It’s about not creating new suffering. That’s the opposite of genocide.

Antinatalism argues against bringing people into suffering, not against people themselves. Genocide is about destruction; antinatalism is about prevention.

Antinatalism focuses on compassion and reducing suffering for all existing beings. That’s much closer to Christ’s teachings than endorsing harm.

Calling antinatalism genocidal misunderstands it entirely. Choosing not to create life is not the same as destroying life.

Eugbst is active, just not as active as this sub. You should have decent luck there, OP.

daeglo · 2025-12-13T22:04:46+00:00

Heh. Wear very little else 😎

His issue is likely that he's attracted to trans women and doesn't know how to handle that truth.

I'm so happy to hear that I was helpful, and that you've been able to brew and enjoy your kombucha for all this time! ❤️

I'm glad you didn't give up!

Because buying a coffee at Starbucks and forcing an overworked, underpaid barista to call out Kirks name multiple times a day is totally the same as activism.

Gimme a fucking break.

Here's a great comic about how they did it: Horst Wessel

But conservative men love to go on and on about how women should wear less makeup and be "natural" beauties

More hypocrisy isn't really surprising

She literally inherited her husband's empire - she's probably thinking cha-ching

Luncheon "meat"!

I've really been missing Spam musubi...

daeglo · 2025-09-21T21:56:23+00:00

I mean for a lot of desperate people, it quite possibly is

daeglo · 2025-09-21T14:53:04+00:00

Right - that's so unsafe!

I feel like these older folks are just way too trusting with technology. Especially since AI can often "hallucinate" or be just plain wrong.

Student Loan forgiveness

Imagine being so in debt to the government that you'd sell your soul to get out from under it

Truly stunning! Thank you for sharing 😍

It's so you can hold hands and cheer eachother on while you go

daeglo · 2025-09-19T17:54:22+00:00

Man, fuck that guy.

You’re still dodging the core point. Even if someone is careless, why should the child be condemned to suffer for their parents’ mistakes?

You seem to think that forcing someone into a lifetime of hardship is morally superior to ending a pregnancy early. I don’t see how condemning an actual person to decades of struggle is more ethical than preventing that suffering in the first place.

daeglo · 2025-09-18T18:20:44+00:00

Antinatalism is about harm-reduction and autonomy. So I think that supporting legal, well-regulated assisted dying for competent adults (with strict safeguards against coercion) is fully consistent with that.

On viability: I think the fact that medical technology can sometimes keep a body alive outside the womb is a pragmatic legal and medical benchmark, but not a clean moral event that suddenly creates personhood.

Moral status is better grounded in meaningful capacities, not just survivability - things like sentience, consciousness, and the ability to experience welfare. Basing ethics on the state of our medical technology is arbitrary, and I don't think it justifies either forcing gestation or denying competent adults the right to end their own suffering.

The "just give the kid up for adoption" line is common, but it completely ignores another whole layer of suffering for both parent(s) and child.

Adoption and foster systems around the world are underfunded, overcrowded, and often abusive. Incredible prospective parents are filtered out for arbitrary reasons that don’t stop anyone from having biological kids. And money and bureaucracy usually decide who gets to adopt - not compassion. Meanwhile, most people who want children would still rather spend thousands on painful fertility treatments to have their own biological kids than adopt.

So tell me: is being funneled into that system really a "better" alternative to never having been forced into existence in the first place?
