One of the best things about moving here from the bad place was how their senseless, rabid hatred of young people didn't carry over. It's heartbreaking to see sentiments like this starting to spread.
Come on. It's not that bad. Plus "maybe don't take babies on plane trips" doesn't equal "kill all babies" or "fuck Dem kids". There are many subtle levels.
As an antinatalist, this comment feels very unwelcoming of me - I'm sad to see the hostility was carried here with the migration.
I definitely recommend revisiting this post about 12 hrs later. It's kind of wild in here. Saw a comment with 19 upvotes referring to children as "cum pets."
I don't think I could bear it. Activism for the rights and freedoms of young people has been such a big part of my life for such a long time that that kind of anti-child attitude burns my soul.
