Oh, found the nerve. You're sitting around dressed in black on black listening to some "edgy" band I've never heard of, right?

And yes I'm ignoring the folks who commit suicide. They aren't the people arguing for others to not have children or for the end of all humanity. They are completely beside the argument about anti-natalism. We're talking about your philosophy here, do keep up. If you're arguing that humanity should be ended, then you really have two logic options:

1. Go on a mass murder spree, reducing the population as fast and as much as possible.
2. Go find that bridge. At least your suffering will be over and you will have reduce the human population by one.

Hanging about for some misguided sense of "I need to convert the masses" is just the same sort of messianic bullshit every cult leader engages in. Convince the dupes to follow your bullshit, while never actually following it yourself. And much like the crap from cult leaders, the philosophy is bullshit. There may be some nuggets of truth and useful ideas buried inside it, but it's wrapped up in enough shit to render the whole worthless. Its a philosophy which has latched on to the same thinking as the guy on the corner with "The End is Nigh!" written in large, dark letters on a sign, ranting about whatever form of doom is en vogue. Those guys have been hanging about for millennia, none of them have been right. But hey, maybe the next one will be the ticket.

Yup, the world's got problems. If your solution is "give up" then you're part of the problem. The world gets better when people choose to fix it. But that's hard, usually slow (including moving backwards on occasion) and requires effort. Giving up is easy. The hardest part is maintaining the flexibility in your shoulders to keep patting yourself on the back. And that's all this philosophy is, it's giving up with excuses to justify it to yourself. it's a short-sighted view of the world, hyper-focused on the things which are bad.

If you really feel that things are that bad, instead of giving up or killing yourself (seriously, don't do that. It improves nothing), find a small corner of the world which you can make better and go do it. Plant a tree, at least the world has one more tree now. Help troubled children, the fact that you are able to waste time arguing on the internet with idiots like me proves that you live an absolutely charmed life compared to many, many people, go make one of their lives a bit better. Go create something, the world needs more art. The time you just wasted on my trolling could have been far better spent on learning to paint or just rubbing one out. I mean, I get it, arguing with idiots on the internet is like masturbation, it's fun at first but really you're just screwing yourself. At least with real masturbation you get a refractory period to go do something useful with a clear mind. Give up on giving up, and make the hard choice to make the world better. Sure, you'll fail a lot. That's part of what makes it hard. But the successes are worth the effort.

you have a bit of teenage angst of your own left unresolved.

Seriously? You can do better than that. At least try to put more effort into the insult than "no, you". Something like "brain-washed" or "child-pilled". Or is that "natal-pilled", what is the appropriate "-pilled" insult here? Even "neo-lib sheep" would have shown some imagination. Also, I've pretty much set you up for a whole host of insults over my masturbatory habits and things being "hard", let's see you really pound something out here.
