Having no kids is also great if u want to fuck over the billionaire class. They can’t exploit people if there simply aren’t people left to exploit lol.
It’s a strange anti-human attitude. We should just go extinct as a species to own the bourgeoisie. I mean, the bourgeoisie needs workers like us, so by that logic, why not just all kill ourselves now to own the bourgeoisie, who will then have no workers left? It’s just such a freaking weird mindset I don’t get how there are 10 people who agree with you.
I think it makes for a nice hot take but it need some nuance.
Personally, I am not against kids at all but I am against kids within this system. It seems like for many when they think “Yay kids!” That is as far as the thinking goes, unaware that 20 years later those kids will be welcomed into the daily grind as just another meat cog for the machine. Again this is personally, others don’t have this concern and I am sure many can easily justify it.
The “no kids FU billionaires” is that same “yay kids” attitude flipped. It is an extreme end on a valid issue.
The reason why billionaires are starting to get very interested in the demographic and population issues is because they know that it will spell trouble for their power structure, it is the same reason why they are cuddling up to any authoritarian leaning government as a means to try and cling to power. So a knee jerk reaction is to feed into their fear, it can be fun, but short sighted.
It is totaly based though.
NO! they will just get rid of education for lower class, and restore the birthrate lmao. This is not how we supposed to get rid of exploiters.
“We fuck the billionaires by decimating us to dust”.
My vasectomy is probably one of the best things I have ever invested in
I have no kids and three money, but most of all, a wonderful lifestyle and almost unbridled freedom
I hate kids but have a breeding kink, im so thankful I can’t get pregnant
Ha, now that is a fun predicament.
I have a friend that had a daughter a few years back, he regretted it from day 1 as he basically lost his old life and wasn’t a fan of his new one. He has hated it at worst, tolerated it at best for the last few years. And yet, he has said to me “I think I am going insane, I hate ever moment of this… so why do I want another kid?!”
A lot of close friends with kids all say the same thing, they love their kids and they take great care of them, but if they knew then what they know now and could go back in time, they would make sure it would never happen.
One couple had their third about 2 years back and made sure that they would not have a forth because they were already financial strained. About 6 months after their third was born we were out and the mother turn to the father and says “I really want a forth now!” a brief pause then “And that is why past me was smart because past me stopped me from doing that.”
Biology is gonna do its thing.
I have wondered if “breeding kink” is really a kink in the way we usually use the term or it is just our animal instincts compelling us to reproduce which some people supress better than others.
I’m also really thankful I can’t get pregnant. Been unable to my whole life.
Yeeted everything but my ovaries laat summer and it’s been awesome. 10/10 recommend that shit
Wife and I got one past her IUD, 11 years old now :). Be careful.
Instructions unclear. Installed an IED.
Here to say the same. So long 2 kid life. Welcome my miracle #3.
Slightly valid humblebrag
So , unlimited creampies with a strong disclaimer
Ah I got a notification with your message on my phone and my first, next, and last impression is PLEASE
Yeah, we good with our amount of babbies. This timeline is cursed. Send them to another for protection.
A vasectomy has the same fun, minus the periods bit.
Yeah, it would be nice if vasectomies stopped periods.
My SIL was on an IUD, like 17 years ago or so. I remember because my nephew is getting his drivers license soon.
(They aren’t infallible)
Wow she’s the .1% of the .1%. When it does fail the vast majority of pregnancies are non-viable ectopic. So your nephew really beat the odds
They can just fall out or migrate too.
Are you talking about the iud or a child?
Yes
True, still they are 99.8% to 99.9% effective depending on the kind. Insane odds, since it was so close to insertion there must have been some kind of mistake during insertion
there must have been some kind of mistake during insertion
well yes, that’s how a kid is made
Anal is certainly one form of birth control
I paid £400 for the snip but save so much not paying a fortune raising children.
Best investment I have ever made.
I paid £400 for the snip
Why? “£” suggests you’re in the UK. It’s free in the UK, unless you don’t want to wait a few months.
the shears were cheap but he spent a fortune on bandaids
I thought it’s like £4k for a bilateral orchiectomy?
Just snipping the tubes, not yanking the boys out.
I want the boys yanked out of me… :(
Yeah that was kind of outside of the scope of the discussion. It was mainly around a vasectomy to prevent births.
ik sorry am I not allowed to be silly
not yet
My usual talk during check ups:
Are you currently sexually active?
Yes.
Are you trying to get pregnant, or any chance of a pregnancy?
No.
What method of contraception are you using?
Sex reassignment surgery.

Im old and out of the breeding pool, but I’m staunch anti-natalist when society becomes inhospitable or even hostile to future generations. The US has totally bought the ticket to ride to population implosion.
Although it’s not really that bad. Fertility dropped below 1.6, a number that is notable only because MAGA, white Christian nationalism and big capitalism are freaking out about it. But they’re still bankrolling manosphere influencers, and their followers are entirely repugnant and inelligible.
Case in point FBI having to inform ICE that the tradwife-minded women interested in them on dating sights actually just want to dox them.
Fertility of 2.1 is replacement, and in normal times, the US rate is still below that and made up by immigration. But that means whites would have to share their society with non-whites. As first and second generation immigrants work hard, commit fewer crimes (than the general public), take harsher jobs and pay their taxes, I guess they make their white-supremacist neighbors feel insecure.
Betas are going to be the next Silent Generation, the low-population gen born during the Great Depression, known to be a sad, cautionary lot with lifelong health problems. I do not envy them their future. And that’s even if none of the catastrophic existential risk scenarios manifest in their lifetime.
(We’re going to run out of water in their lifetime.)
(Depending on how aggressive the new data center builds are, we might run out of water in my parents’ lifetimes, and I’m in my 40s)
Hmmm, if I insert it up my butt will I stop farting?
It would make your burps more smelly.
There’s nothing like empirical evidence I would say. Go ahead and try and then please report back.
I’m wearing one now big boy, what next?
It has strings attached to it so they might get poopy
I am 43 years old I live in a rural town of less than 4000 people. Everybody here is a hard-core Republican needless to say I have to do next to nothing in order to not get anybody pregnant.
I gave birth once. Would rather never experience that hell again.
Side note, I’m fascinated by your username. Are you a dragon with a sour disposition? Or more like a Sour Patch Dragon? Or a dragon who likes to eat sour patch kids? All three?
Just my name.
From my bio:
I’m Sour of the Noodle Council®. I’m here to just dragon it up and be a dragon, and to observe your interactions with my dragoniness to report my findings back to the Noodle Council®
It’s just a character.
Ah, I misinterpreted your username. Carry on, then!
I was originally gonna go with the username SourGrapes, but I decided to use a generic green dragon picture as my pfp and changed it to SourDragon. The character grew from there.
I appreciate the question. Have a nice day ☺️
Did you ever feel the urge to have a second one around the time your first became 2 ? According to my colleagues it’s super common
By the time she was two, she’s legally wasn’t mine anymore, so no
Busting out the Lisa Frank! Congrats on surviving insertion because Jesus fucking Christ that shit hurts. I had to have mine taken out because it kept poking me, hope you don’t have that issue!
My partner had theirs replaced yesterday. It’s the second time I’ve sat by them while it was done, and my god, you uterus-owners pay the iron price for that shit. And we thank you all for it.
