Why do people shill crap like this, as hard as live is I’m glad I have a live than none. And no I don’t care if I am contributing to some greater cycle of suffering. Death cult crap.

The book specifically is not about whether people who are already alive should consider suicide but rather not bringing people into this world since having a child can never be for the child's benefit and they will inevitably experience suffering. Whether life is worth starting is subject to different criteria than whether it is worth continuing.

They always just find any random artwork of an attractive male and slap it on the cover with no regard for context. The most Chad Dorian Gray cover is picrel. Timeless, elegant, tells you exactly what the book is about.
