      When you start advocating for a particular group to not reproduce, what else would you call it? You can choose that for yourself but if you suggest it for anyone else you’re gonna need to choose your words very carefully to avoid coming across like a super racist from the 19th century.

        To be clear, I’m anti-capitalist and not blaming poor people for anything, nor suggesting they should not have any children. But I stand by my position and wording.

        Don’t have more children (or even pets) than one can support. It’s objectively cruel.

        Would I prefer a world where there wasn’t such dramatic (or ideally any) inequality? Definitely. But even in a world where every single parent could support 6 kids I’d be against people having 17.

          You seem to think that the only way for people with children to to be poor is if they are poor and have children. You know you can have children, loose your job, and become poor, right? I’m telling you, you are out of touch and that is clearly evident in you’re inability to come up with non circumstancial examples.
