It works fine on an individual or case-by-caae basis, but there are seven billion people who probably aren't ready and willing to pull the curtains on all of human existence just because they went through some shit.

I'm a redditor in my early 30s with almost 100 thousand comment karma, a girlfriend that I sleep with on a weekly basis and estrogen levels never previously before seen in a human male.
I was an avid supporter of Bernie and I even got to shake hands with him at two of his rallies. I am a feminist, a liberal, a gamer and an atheist.
With all this said, I can state with absolute confidence: He is wrong, life IS good.

Antinatalism is actually a deeply racist and misogynistic position promoted almost exclusively by white, privileged males.
There are billions of POC and women/non-binary people out there deserving to have adorable little rainbow babies. White males are just mad they're losing their old position in the hetero-normative white patriarchy and are lashing out at POC/non-males with depressive rage.
