Jiwoon Hwang was a prominent figure in the antinatalist movement and was the editor of the antinatalist magazine. He moved to Svalbard where he tried to set up ''Refuge Island'' - basically a homeland for antinatalists where it is illegal to procreate.

Three years ago he took antinatalist philosophy even further and coined ''promortalism''. Not only was it immoral to procreate, it made more logical and ethical sense to cease to exist.

He shortly after killed himself.

At least he took his philosophy to its actual conclusion, unlike the antinatalist larpers on redd/lit/

Even if you're an anti natalist you have to keep your ideology alive so it can be argued that only ending your own existence is not enough

Jiwoon was an optimist.
He just accepted that pain stops at death.

If your ideology is so self-evident and objective, as antinatalists claim it is, then that shouldn't be a problem. Nor should it matter to you if others live since the entire basise of antinatalism MY LIFE SUCKS, emphasis on my.

So is it actually possible to do that? to pop a balloon while non-chalantly walking away? a drive-by pop? wouldn't the balloon just get pushed away? How sharp does the needle have to be?

Does anybody here have a Reddit account? I would honestly find it really cool if someone was to just straight up ask that ledditors at r/promortalism:
>So when are you going to do it, faggot?
That would be really funny.

It would be enlightening in that you would get your answer as to why antinatalists don't kill themselves. Trouble is you would still not absorb it because you never do no matter how many ways its stated.

You can only tell a person prohibiting a life and ending one are conditionally separate so many times.

I didn't say r/antinatalism, I said r/promortalism, which is specifically a pro-suicide/death position. There really is no difference between them though, you definitely got that right, it's just 10x more pathetic when your position is explicitly pro-suicide and not implicitly like antinatalism is and yet you still haven't done it.
It's all the same sad sack boo-hoo life sucks moppy droopy shit though. Weak, impotent men who would rather whine and seek attention and validation that their life is worth anything than being a man and trying to find respect through action.

Fuck wits in this thread. Hurr durr why don't you just kill yourself yourself? Bitch, the philosophy is about not creating more suffering by having children, which doesn't mean you can't enjoy life, just that it is wrong to create more life. But rest assured I will kill myself in time

You should only kill yourself if antinatalist ideology has been spread to enough people in the world. Otherwise it will be difficult to end the human race

Just be a solipsist too, so the world stops existing when you die. It's not like you'll be around to notice if you're wrong.
