It's more of a generation-based complaint, however I would speculate that raising children puts a lot in perspective. You are forced to solve actual problems instead of caring about meaningless shit. For example my daughter who is a staunchy SJW is also vehemently against becoming a parent, and she won't see a contradiction in that. I guess it's just part of being juvenile.
- ChainOfFools 5y agogently remind her that if she doesn't have children, other people will, and they may raise them to have very different views than those she would share with her own children. families of culturally conservative parents also tend toward multiple offspring, with structural support from their communities and traditions, i.e. "go forth, be fruitful and multiply." for her (and those taking a similar stance) to change the world, in this model, increasingly means changing the minds of other people's children. the odds of prevailing in this battle of value systems only grow worse with time for those who choose to remain "child-free."
