Based.

Basically took the words out of my mouth. The problem anti-natalists have is that 99% of them are undoubtedly materialist atheists in the consequentialist morality sense. I don’t even give a fuck if someone believes in a god or not, that’s beside the point. What I’m talking about is the ethos of the supremely self-important Redditor who simultaneously takes the most extreme moral position, “humanity should not exist because the suffering outweighs the good” while at the same time refusing to posit what makes a position good or moral - if you’re stuck in the infinite regress of consequentialist morality of course you’re going to come to the conclusion that life isn’t worth it. Deontology and consequentialism usually at least agree on life having value as a first principle. If you can’t even bring yourself to acknowledge that then obviously you’re trapped in a dead end tunnel.

Regarding babies with cancer - if you stopped and thought about it for two seconds beyond Reddit-tier philosophy, you’d realize the inherent tragedy of such a situation is ONLY PROPORTIONAL to the inherent BEAUTY, INNOCENCE, VULNERABILITY and TRANSCENDENCE that we INHERENTLY ascribe to children. If children came out of the womb as indestructible twenty foot tall automata made out of titanium, the tragedy wouldn’t exist - therefore you contradict yourself because your premise that human life is meaningless is based on the inherent meaningfulness of the subject you advocate for the removal of. Therefore you have become an agent of your own misery and destruction based on a rejection of a premise you inherently accept due to retardation and homosexuality.

Before capitalism none of these things existed. These problems are cross-cultural and have existed in every society. But hey, it's totally systematic of capitalism right?

Every prediction marx made was wrong. Your system is obviously wrong. You bugmen have been saying it's "late capitalism" since 1850 ffs.
