Now is simply not a good time to bring people you care for into the world. It's a shit show on so many levels, and you're not likely to substantially improve it by raising a family in this environment.
- dang 8y agoPlease don't take HN threads on generic flamewar tangents.
- newnewpdro 8y agoHuh? That's not my intention. It's my genuine view that if one wants to improve this situation, the best thing they can do is forgo children and get involved in education and politics. People become hamstrung with familial obligations, and we could really use a generation of more adults focusing on our nation's hygiene rather than growth.
- dang 8y agoAlas, intention doesn't much influence this. If you bring in a generic flamebait trope, we're likely to get a generic flamewar thread. One way to counteract this is to make comments that are much more specific. Your second comment is a step in that direction.
