    Semantics, but if you really want to get into it, a lack of ability for things to be good or bad is still better than the existence and perpetuation of suffering.

    Also, responding to differing worldviews with “see a therapist” and comparing them to a villain is fucking disgusting

      How could it be better? There’d be no one around to make that judgment call, so it’s a fundamentally illogical statement.

      And I calls em like I sees em Mr. Saturday Morning Cartoon Villain Apologist.

          Surely the core arguments that an anti-natalist might bring forward apply to any sentient beings, right? Like, a cat didn’t give prior consent to existing any more than a human did. Ergo, I do think it’s reasonable to point out that there would be no observer that could witness, much less enjoy any benefit from, the anti-natalist ideal world.
