people should be born but should be allowed to opt out. Forcing life is unethical.

humans have a natural drive to eat protein rich meat, but killing animals can be wrong because their suffering outweighs the good that come from the meat same deal with human reproduction, when you make life, you create untold suffering, infinite pain, people should have a choice about that just like they have a choice with pregnancy.

unless reverse birth is made safe, easy, and affordable, I don't see how birth can be justified

sexpig by night posted:no no, see haven't you learned anything? It's not enough to just have a baseline stance of 'bodily autonomy means freedom to do what you want with your body', you have to put every kid in the world in a class where they learn how correct and good it is to use the suicide booth in the name of dwindling the population to pre-industrial levels. oh yeah, not reproducing because you think life will suck for your kids is a mix of nostalgia and eco fascism not reproducing because you care about consent is cool and good

actually being alive is good because all the suffering goes away once you die, so nothing bad can come of it. Live, might as well.

Konomex posted:Most people would argue there is no evidence the suffering goes away once you die. That's quite the gamble. Also, you're weirdly fixated on easily accessible suicide, are you okay? there is plenty of evidence to suggest consciousness goes away once you die.

I am content after eating a meal and no longer being hungry. Filling up and emptying a vessal makes me content to a level. This does not mean that the vessal not existing would be worse. When i hold my breath I feel relieve and satisifaction by breathing eventually. This is all just biological and has nothing to do with meaning.

Beelzebufo posted:What is meaning? it doesnt exist. When people die, everything ends, there is no preservation of happiness or sadness. Letting people die its the only way to have an ethical society. There is no reason to be against this.

DrSunshine posted:Yeah, the universe and everything in it is meaningless. Congratulations, it seems you've discovered the first part of 20th century existentialism! Time to read some Sartre!! The second part of this journey into modern philosophy follows, in which the existentialists answer: "So it is then up to people to define their own meaning." I'm not the one who brought up "life satisfaction" lol

Mulva posted:It's actually nothing at all like that, in any sense, at all. mayhaps it is in fact quite hard to reliably kill yourself. I'm sure in 20 years you will say you've always supported bodily autonomy, but I guess its still too progressive right now

sean10mm posted:I think they are just asking why you haven't killed yourself, specifically, based on your stance on life itself that reads as an edgelord's parody of nihilism more than a coherent defense of bodily autonomy as a general idea. I would say I'm still vaguely curious about stuff. But holding people hostage because the next part of the movie might be good is unethical.

Pentecoastal Elites posted:no one is arguing with you about broad bodily autonomy, including the right to autoeuthanize, which appears to be generally supported throughout this forum (or subforum, at least). Great, so we've successfully debated and discussed. Having children is fine, but you must make accessible exits for it to be ethical. Close the thread I guess.

Mulva posted:It's super easy to kill yourself reliably. Especially if you have the internet, like you do. Reminder: I'm not making a wider point, I'm saying if you, personally, believed what you were saying you'd kill yourself. As you are still shitposting, you don't. Which makes everything you are saying tedious. "drat, you support abortion yet had kids? guess you're a hypocrit"

The issue of birth ethics is entirely negated simply by giving humans actually freedom of choice, again unless you think the body belongs to the state/god/whatever and not the human

good(?) news (?) it looks like we will need to keep thinking about this, new research suggests that fertility decline has been greatly exaggerated https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14647273.2021.1917778?src= Richardson and her colleagues found that earlier research claimed causal links between declining sperm counts and declining fertility, as well as between exposures to certain environmental chemicals and lower sperm counts. The GenderSci Lab researchers found that neither of these assumptions are supported by scientific or geographic evidence.
