Haven't you also transcended hundreds of millions of years of animal evolution by being antinatalist ?
no, it’s well documented that when resources are limited and or carry capacity is maxed out, to favor their own survival and wellbeing, animals will kill their own young (kinda like abortion), miscarry, become less fertile via hormonal changes, or not mate, - all result in limiting procreation so that the individual can survive that difficult overpopulated or under resourced era.
also in captivity animals have been know to cease mating or procreation. while captivity isn’t natural this does show that there’s something buried there in the animal instinct or psyche,
granted these mechanisms of limiting or ceasing procreation have the downstream effect of the animal that practices it, surviving, and then later during times of plenty, they do reproduce and pass on that trait of not procreating when it’s expedient for survival and wellbeing of the individual - hence AN practices are selected for and passed on in this way. the animals that continues to have excess progeny dies and its young die - so the trait of excess reproduction no matter the conditions, is not selected for
but the mechanism does exist and was selected for despite in the macroscopic sense it does favor survival of the species.
but that mechanism of limiting or abstaining from procreation was selected for during evolution for these reasons. so it’s not unnatural.
this does correspond to conditional antinatlism though; and not to the AN rationale based on the immorality of creating suffering out of thin air.
regardless of the reasons it exists in nature, it exists. as more highly evolved animals (humans) we can begin to assign moral justifications and other reasons for the practice too which is a bigger can of worms though and a new thing.
but no, it’s a natural thing other species have done for hundreds of millions of years, regardless of the reasons.
and on a different note. i’d love to transcend the reliance on social interactions and validation as i originally referred to. it’s competley unrelated to anti natalism, regardless of whether AN practices have evolutionary roots or not, i don’t see the connection between AN and waning to be free of the chains of worrying what others think about me.
AN does trigger a lot of people. so i’m not surprised you brought it up in an unrelated conversation. When you’re not confident in the choices you’ve made and you hear a valid challenge to it, it creates a defensive reaction, so this is very common occurrence i deal with if i express AN views.
ppl see my own choices and ideology as a personal assault because of the decisions they e made in their own lives. and if they were truly non regretful of their own decisions and confident in the altruism of them, they wouldn’t be so triggered by AN viewpoints
...you can't be posting nonsense, on here and not bring laughter & joy to the people...that's, not fair
