• Hey Guest,

    As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. The UK and OFCOM has singled out this community and have been focusing its censorship efforts here. It takes a good amount of resources to maintain the infrastructure for our community and to resist this censorship. We would appreciate any and all donations.

I think a main part of my anti-natilist views are that we're brought here without choice and then, we aren't given the choice to leave either- not peacefully, reliably or safely anyhow. (Unless there are truly horrific circumstances.) I think, were assisted suicide available to say- all adults of sound mind- I think that would make me feel slightly differently. Not that that's ever likely to happen!

Still, I think it would maybe diminish my feelings- not eradicate them. It still means that person has 18 years to get through. If their life is bad from the start, that can feel like a very long time. In some ways, prevention still feels better than cure.

How about you? Obviously, this post is more geared towards people who have anti-natilist views to begin with...

I wouldn't change my antinatalist views

I will always believe antinatalism is correct

Life is evil . No one should have ever suffered

Life has tortured Billions of humans. Why has no one with reach ever mentioned This?

I would never want to live or be born even if others helping you to exit this hell were legal. Not even a bit of pain or suffering or problems is acceptable to me

Non-existence is the only thing that's perfect. Never any chance of pain suffering problems bat memories etc

The problem is that I was born. Only non-existence can guarantee no pain and no suffering ever. As soon as u are born u are at risk of something horrible happening. And all sentient animals including humans suffer because they are alive


Diy suicide methods much more risky than with someone else helping u
So for that reason Yes I'm for the monsters removing their laws that make assisting with suicide a crime but I shouldn't have to do that I wish I were never born

It would solve all my problems if monsters were to remove their laws they passed that make it a crime for me to hire someone else to aid me with suicide. That would make my suicide almost guaranteed

Plus nothing is 100% perfect even helping in suicide might go wrong in one out of 10,000 cases. Why Should I suffer for years and then have to take any risk ? There is no reason

My anti natalist views would be the exact same. Yes, it's a good thing if people were allowed to die painlessly whenever they choose to and it would somewhat mitigate the idea of life being an imposition. However, even if assisted suicide were to be legalised, there's still no need to create life in the first place since there aren't any non existent beings begging for life. It's just pointless to procreate. Also, like you said, there's still 18 years of life that they have to go through in the first place

I am not an antinatalist . But I wish every couple procreates after analysing their situation. It should be couple's responsibility rather than any kind of regulation. Assisted suicide would still be relevant as even after taking care of everything, the child might end up having to endure severe suffering. I don't think people having firm anti natalist view would change their opinion as once the birth has taken place , the harm is done. As I understand, antinatalism is against suffering. To suffer to an extent that one considers assisted death..well that's enough suffering that could have been bypassed. And then there is death. Death in itself is suffering. Psychological suffering. One may really not want to die , but has no other option but to die to get rid of suffering . There are so many cancer patients who want to live but embrace death...

I think assisted suicide and antinatalism are separate topics and while they both overlap and are related in some aspects, the simple answer is that my views on antinatalism would likely remain the same. I don't plan on having any progeny or bringing in non-sentient beings into sentience. The best outcome is for people to not have to suffer against their will.

it might change my opinion, but not in any tangible way that would matter. i already frown upon reproduction as opposed to adoption/fostering children, even aside from the whole antinatalism thing i think the desire to have blood related offspring is just odd to me.

Other. I won't have a better opinion on life if people still have to die in first place and would still oppose it, but anti-natalist philosophy is extremely flawed. And the shit their community does. I can't in good faith identify with those people. When I discovered it, we had just too little in common.

I wouldn't change my view that living is dangerous just because of something as fleeting as legalised assisted suicide. It would not solve the problem which caused suicide to be illegal in the first place.
