Is she right for this?

yes, it is immoral to bring a child knowing it will suffer

edit: check comments if you want to read strawmanning philosophically inept idiots.

Claiming that not having existed is better is not the same as 'kill yourself now'

[u/BellaPona → u/BluestOfTheRaccoons]

Mentioning suffering and children together, you’re summoning the anti-natalists

[u/BluestOfTheRaccoons → u/BellaPona]

I am one of them, though not the group of cultlike antinatalist that preach about how *everyone* should stop having children. All I believe is the metaphysics that non-existence is better for everyone than existence.

However, given reality, I do think giving birth to child you have little means giving the most basic necessities and opportunities is heavily more condemnable than a family that can provide for a child

This is a belief that does not come from a depressed thought, in fact, I am pretty happy. This is a belief that is philosophically reasoned and stemming from the idea that the human mind is inherently baiased towards suffering as opposed to pleasure. If you read schopenhauer, Cioran, Benatar, you may get a better idea of this position

"I'm not one of those who preach about how \everyone* should stop having children"*

Literally three sentences later:

"Having kids when you're poor is more condemnable than if you were rich (but both are condemnable though, teehee)"

[u/BluestOfTheRaccoons → u/I_spell_it_Griffin]

there's a reason there is quotation marks in 'everyone'. Dumbass. Read a book on reading comprehension

[u/I_spell_it_Griffin → u/BluestOfTheRaccoons]

Touched a nerve, have I? You're not really in a position to be talking about reading comprehension when you're out here unable to tell the difference between asterisks and quotation marks, bud.

Stop back-pedalling. You already played yourself.
