Get over yourself.
- paulryanrogers 3y agoArguably many suffered and died young or lost young children. Some likely regretted having, or skipped having kids. It's completely legitimate to consider the societal costs and not only the benefits to birthing children.
- NalNezumi 3y agoYeah and arguably, many survived to see the light on the other side of the tunnel. It's completely legitimate in the same way as this argument is: "since there's a risk of me being hit by a car, or having an unpleasant day when I go outside, I better stay inside." Overly focusing on the negative outcome to the point of inaction is often a thinly veiled excuse for some other often internal/personal reasons. Doomerism doesn't have legitimacy because it's just a decaying idea. If ideas had an evolutionary tree, it is a recurring branch(leaf) that always died off while legitimately calling itself legitimate, every single time.
