Margaret Thatcher: "there is no such thing as society, there are only individuals and families"

/r/DogFree:

"It's so wholesome to see a family without a pet dog...The whole family is talking with each other and, well, being a family.

The ideal family doesn't need a dog. A dog is a living parasite of a burden.

I notice family units are usually stronger when they don't have a dog.

That’s what it looks like at my house. Peace, quiet, chatting with each other. We can come and go in and out of the house without a "shadow"

Without a shadow? new type of vampire ghoul just dropped

    I don’t think I’ve ever encountered one outside of doomer stuff here (that usually gets removed) to be honest.

    Isn’t their whole thing about reducing suffering via reducing the amount of human reproduction?

    Gotta love it when people don’t even clear the lowest hurdle in terms of ideological consistency.

    Either way, I’m fairly certain they would give off detectable bad vibes.

      I dunno if I’d call myself an antinatalist bc they all kinda suck but I agree with them that you can’t consent to be born and that ripping someone from the void and forcing consciousness on them is taking a huge liberty with someone else’s life.

        I do agree that creating a life is a serious matter that doesn’t seem to be treated with the gravity it deserves on a depressingly frequent basis.

        Building a better world would solve most of the issues that stem from it though.

          I mean, that still doesn’t solve the issue of consent. “Hey baby, I made you a bed of roses and got you a bottle of champagne, we’re going to have a really nice time I promise” doesn’t magically create consent.

        I get what you're saying and I do agree, if I had a choice I wouldn't have wanted to be born. But when the two options are forcing new life into the world and just stopping breeding I'd probably take the former, because there are some people who are glad to be alive
