    i can't imagine palestine has great access to family planning, contraceptives, or abortion specifically let alone medical care at all. fucking is fun and free (until you have to take care of a kid)

    gotta have more kids in case some of them die of cholera get killed by the IDF

    but no, It hardly seems ethical to subject someone to living in occupied palestine, which is why the apartheid needs to be stopped, but in the meantime i couldn't knowingly and willingly put a kid through that. i'm mad enough at my own parents and by comparison i live in the lap of luxury.

      Stopped by who? If the anti-natalists had their way, the liberation struggle would fall apart in a few decades because everyone involved would've either died from combat or old age with no future fighters to replace them. The Palestinian national liberation is a struggle that spans generations. How would anti-natalism even fit into this? If anything, anti-natalism is reactionary because it means Palestinians should not only give up their liberatory struggle but also save the Zionists trouble by self-genociding themselves instead. This is reactionary nonsense.

        stopped by the people doing it. stopped by the international community that should be allies of the palestinians rather than the regime. resisted by the people who are already alive.

        what gives you the right to conscript someone into a generation-spanning struggle?

          "Please stop genociding us, Mr. Zionist."

          stopped by the international community that should be allies of the palestinians rather than the regime.

          Well, they're not pulling their weight. So what is to be done?

          resisted by the people who are already alive.

          And as I outlined earlier, the struggle will take generations. Are you under the impression the Zionist entity is gonna collapse within a year or something?

          what gives you the right to conscript someone into a generation-spanning struggle?

          I don't have the political power to stop Palestinians from having kids. There's isn't a magical button that I'm not pressing labeled "Palestinians can't make babies anymore."

          If you don't want kids, that's your personal choice. But other people want to have kids and they're gonna have kids regardless of your objections, so what is to do be done?
