Nice, kid, but Kant rekt all this shit already, and you are just a pathetic retard having read nothing, posturing the edgiest possible stance on existence, for the meme of it.

More like "embittered bachelors philosophy."

Just losers projecting their failings onto the universe. It's rather embarrassing.

All moral posturing, no matter how complex, ultimately comes down to 'muh feels'. Reasonably speaking, it's literally nonsense.

Antinatalism is no exception to this. That said, its moral claims are no more nonsensical than others.

Not him, but human extinction would obviously be better through an antinatalist project. That way you do not harm people who, usually, have some investment in living. The phased extinction idea was interesting.

Just by not having kids you achieve the same thing as by suicide on the long run and that way you don't hurt anyone. But good memeargument, I hope the weather in Alabama is treating you well, Cleetus

We are standing on the edge
On the edge of time
We are standing on the edge
On the edge of time
We are the warriors at the edge of time
We walk hand in hand with horror
We ride side by side with death
We are the warriors at the end of time
Over poisoned crystal deserts
Where the ruined towers shout
We march towards our dying scarlet sun
Death!
Death to life!
Death!
Death to time!
We bring sweet destruction now to everything
In our mirrored flashing armour
In our secret, hideous helms
We are the angels of our ruin
And we climb obsidian mountains
On our final, dreadful quest
Crossing lakes which cry with pain as we pass by
Death to all things living!
Holy death will cleanse the world!
Death, our standard!
Death, our only joy
We are the Warriors at the edge of time
Death to air and fire and water
Death to light and earth and sound
Death to anger, love and sadness
Death to death... and time... and space
And dead horses and dead riders
Seek the last retreats of life
Life betrayed us and we slay it
Corpses locked in battle
Dancing at the edge of time
It's cold at the edge of time
So cold on the edge of time
