im anti-natalism in the sense that "natalism" is what leads to things like The Second Shift/the overturning of Roe/"domestic supply of infants" rhetroic. you literally cannot land there, especially that last one, without natalism.
Well, theoretically they believe people shouldn't reproduce, but looking at their communications they seem much more unhinged and incoherent.
I'm an antinatalist in a certain sense, but it has almost no bearing on the current world. I certainly wouldn't shame someone for reproducing (so long as they aren't a Quiverfull-style hyper-natalist like you allude to) and might even have kids myself depending on what my partner wants, but I feel that the most reasonable thing for a united, coordinated, communist humanity is to work to end the universe in order to minimize the amount of life that is born into existence.
But right now, refusing to have kids because of some idea about birth in general being bad is performative. It's like a socialist giving all of their wealth away, it's a worthless method of creating actual change.
"With a press of this button, I shall stop all movement in every atom in the universe, thereby rendering all of existence a PERFECTLY EQUAL zero Kelvins! BEHOLD! THE VICTORY OF COMMUNISM!"

Literal strawman come to life. The goal of communism is not to end the universe, you sound like a cartoon character.
