I think it’s stupid and worrying that their ideas are gaining traction.
I am not opposed to people not having children or representing themselves as a block, but the idea that having kids is bad is just plain dumb.
My own experience in life makes it reek a lot like mental health issues in those who are antinatalists.
I think I am mainly worried about those peoples mental health. I don’t even want them to have children, I agree that having more or less humans isn’t a moral good or bad.
Well, that Wikipedia article is about the philosophical stance only, and does not include correlation with mental health state. Labeling them as having mental health issues due to subscribing to that particular philosophy is not going to help them even if that was the reason for their mental health state om the first place. If you subscribe to a particular philosophical system, it probably means you took the time to investigate it’s logic and found it agreeable. Example: As an atheist I have had my mental health state questioned often, but I find it amusing and it does nothing to convince me otherwise
