No thanks. I prefer aaaallll the money and time to wifey and myself. We enjoy our hobbies, travel the world, do what we want the whole day long, every day. That’s freedom.
Why would we want kids? And even if, we weren’t rich enough to put kids into this dumpster-fire…

Yep I’m selfish with my time. I like doing anything I want. I just won’t have a care taker when I’m old (but I also am not an ass that would want a child to do that anyway, seems evil)
I’ll gladly donate money to help out the unhoused, and Foss projects though! Because with no kids you have money to donate to things like that.

Yup exactly. All that money (and time, good lord the time!) sunk into lil brats could well be spend elsewhere. FOSS indeed! We also donate a lot and work for free at homeless shelters and such.
But most people prefer to keep running away from thinking by allocating 101% of time to everything but themselves. Jobs, kids, pets…
And this caretaker-for-when-i-am-old…it’s not only disgusting but also too risky. And with all that money sunk into those kids I could buy people who’d take care of me.

Yep. People are too afraid to state the truths you just said for fear of being rediculed.
Not sure why people can “hate” dogs and its considered fine, but we aren’t allowed to dislike human children or youll get persecuted.
Big reason I hate family gatherings. Most people can’t think beyond their immediate situation (and by extension, create “cute” babies they can treat like dolls for 4 years while giving 0 thought to the fact that now its another person in the world that will die to climate change or work in a factory forever and never own a house)

Exactly. I guess it’s because procreation is our only biological reason. And if you don’t play along you’d look like a worker-bee that doesn’t work (in every layer of that word).
I hear you about family, but I just broke with every idiot. My opinion (because it deviates too much from what is allowed in “free speech”) was always belittled, but if they need money, they all know where to find me. Well…knew 😁
Yup, couldn’t have said it more cynical. Kids are shat in this world my parent’s gen (boomer) already paved the way for destruction, that my gen followed nicely. Millenials had it really shitty and I don’t wann see the future of the newest generations.
It always gets me thinking that we need 2k in cost and many many hours of training and learning to be allowed to drive a car. But every Joe and Jane can procreate even if they’re dumb AND poor. No license needed. Just go ahead make as many cute babies as you want.
