I mean.. with all the negativity in this thread, every single person here is consenting to be alive every single day. While there are a number who choose an early exit, the vast vast statistical majority overwhelmingly consent to live another day every day. With such stats I feel like it's fine to assume the default status is consent in this context.

Plus, speaking of morals, we're just dumb little apes. You give us too much credit if you think we can fight the greatest biological urge of all life over something we've completely invented in our minds : morals, and the morals of the unborn is like double hypothetical.

Death is scary, not wanting to die is not the same as wanting to live. I would've rather not been born during about 1/3 of my life, it's only now that I'm finding any substantial (though inconsistent) enjoyment from life.

"by waking up today, you consent to continue existing, and acknowledge the suffering it brings. Do you wish to continue?”

[yes] [yes]

no the fuck I do not. If I had a magicall button that would let me stop existing without the risk of damaging my neck and spending the rest of my life incapacitated but alive, and it didn't cause trauma to the people around me, I would have pressed it fucking years ago.

what disgusting mental acrobatics
