      Have kids if you want. It’s just insane to me to plan your entire life and make major decisions on a cataclysm that may or may not even occur in your lifetime; and it (climate change) may present in ways that we can’t even imagine now.

      Edit, fine, fuck me, it’s raining fire and brimstone out there, billions of people are dying in the streets, the horsemen of the apocalypse are here, it’s game over for the human species, my bad. Nobody have kids, it’s over, might as well just shoot yourself right now.

      This one’s kinda loaded. Imagine everyone just stopped having kids. We’d be extinct.

      We don’t need to pump them out like we’re recovering from a war.

      Also whose gonna take care of all our old asses in the future? Society was kinda built on this system.

      But yes, the population overall does need to decrease.

        I don’t care if we go extinct. Once I’m dead reality shuts down since I can only experience it from my POV.

        And it’s cute you think we’re gonna allowed to retire instead of dying at work or homeless. Real cute. We won’t have the same luxuries as the damn boomers.

          100% agree. We are so fucked for retirement. That term should almost be removed from the dictionary, since it will no longer exist 😅
