  • I’m too autistic for morals if I’m honest.

    I am also autistic.

    And you used the word “unfair” in your previous post so you are not “too autistic” for morals. Or at least you aren’t against pretending you have them when they suit your argument.

    You are now just embracing “might makes right” now that the elderly childless suckers got their pension’s rug pulled because otherwise its too financially inconvenient.


  • I mean, your morals here makes no sense to me. You are selectively ignoring some things.

    Your father owed you. You did not choose to even exist, he and your mother ripped you into existence without your consent. The bare minimum is to try and pay back such an unpayable debt by providing you a good life.

    The older people who choose not to have children don’t have that debt burden. They do not owe you or your father anything. They also did not choose to be born and do not deserve to suffer because they chose not to breed and kick the can of our meaningless existence down the road.

    That said, those older people still contributed to society in their youth with their labor. Had they not done so your country would be worse or less developed. They labored under the expectation that they’d receive a certain amount of retirement via their pensions.


  • I mean, the difference is expectation. If you live in a country where you are expecting to get a pension and they rug pull on you last minute obviously you were spending on the basis of that expectation and are now doomed to misery and homelessness in old age due to no fault of their own.

    Further, some countries wages and cost of living make retiring nearly impossible, child or no. But I guess that’s a separate concern.

    The primary reason I don’t have a kid might be because of my ideology, but even if I was a pro-natalist I’d not dare have a kid unless I wanted drop into poverty. The US doesn’t give a fuck.









  • Even the fundamentals of the questions are different. Its not Americans would be better off, but America. Which is a question asking if the nation would be better off, not the individuals living in it. Where as the next question is from the perspective of an individual living in the country.

    As an aside, I’ve worked in factories, they do indeed suck to work at and I will never again go near that work. Mostly because of the types of people. Asshole bosses and reactionary dipshit co-workers. Office work is boring and a little soul sucking but at least the people are chill and generally progressive at office jobs.





  • No one chooses to exist, so you could argue we’re captives regardless of where we are. Not guests.

    But yeah, I’m not moving anywhere that speaks a different language anyway if I can avoid it. Sounds like too much of an impediment and risk, being unable to function in society that you don’t speak the language in. You end up too vulnerable and dependent on strangers and I don’t tend to trust people I don’t know.

    If you enjoy on an intrinsic level learning another language, fine. That certainly would explain why you “learn without putting in effort”. Its not for me however. I have no desire. I’m far more interested in other things.
