I personally cringe when I hear a friend js having a kid. All I can think of is how bad theyre going to have it. Hell id definitely have been better off being born 20 years earlier, but these new kids are REALLY screwed unless they have super rich parents.
“Nothing new under the sun” I suppose!
So are you implying that you’d only have kids if you could ensure they’d be bourgeoisie, exploiting others for their own benefits?
I think the society fixing angle is naive. I sure wasn’t that kid, I don’t know anyone else who is, and now there’s some kids who seem to be doing the opposite.
“Kindness” is weapons grade copium. Think of it instead like your average CFD bet or any other financial investment - first the fundamentals must be sound, then you invest, not the other way around - you wouldn’t invest in a failing business just in case it could turn around, unless you’re private equity and have other private equity firms lining up for your sucker special suite of bang-em-and-bin-em retirement home joints.
I’ve never seen hobbit/lord of rings and I don’t watch or care for fantasy. You don’t keep darkness at bay - you stare right into the void and grab it by the balls, then you invest.
