That procreation produces magnitudes more suffering than violation of bodily autonomy

But what if I am Nozick's utility monster made flesh, and human suffering makes me happy?

Fortunately as a fan of both not having to deal with infants of my own making GBS threads everywhere as well as human suffering, other people will take care of this conundrum for me lol

We need a machine that asks everyone at the age of 18 if they wish to exist. If not, it wipes their memories THEN incinerates them.

If loss of pleasure is neutral at most because nobody will exist to miss it, can't we say the same thing about suffering because eventually we'll all be dead?

Real talk though I always thought the resolution to bringing someone into this world and them deciding their existence was necessarily evil/anti-eco was just called suicide. When they cease existing they're not experiencing or remembering any suffering anymore so it's neutral just like the good someone not yet conceived has yet to experience.

How is all ethics being meaningless because everyone dies any different than there being no ethics because everyone died off?
