Arguments against Antinatalism
|
||||
==============================
|
||||
|
||||
## Your suffering is a First World Problem.
|
||||
|
||||
An anonymous commenter on [The View from Hell][] provides an example of this
|
||||
common argument:
|
||||
|
||||
> I think your blog's title is a total misnomer: if you're still able
|
||||
> (emotionally, physically and financially) to enjoy drugs, sex, running and
|
||||
> talking about philosophy as you yourself claim you clearly haven't got the
|
||||
> slightest notion of what hell consists of.
|
||||
|
||||
In other words, if there are many people who are much worse off than you, you
|
||||
can't claim to suffer.
|
||||
|
||||
I find that a very strange argument. If even privileged people suffer greatly,
|
||||
isn't that an argument *for* antinatalism, namely that even greatly improved
|
||||
average circumstances don't fix suffering? Shouldn't we therefore conclude that
|
||||
many more people suffer than we typically think?
|
||||
|
||||
What the arguments seems to be doing is to critize people for requesting help.
|
||||
Basically, if someone else needs help much more than you, you shouldn't be
|
||||
bringing your pain to our attention. You're just wasting resources that way.
|
||||
That's not a bad point, but it is not an argument against preventing births. If
|
||||
less people are made, less will suffer and we can take better care of the rest.

This is not a completely serious section. It doesn't provide actual arguments,

## Higher Criticism

aka Historical Criticism
|
||||
|
||||
First rule of Higher Criticism: anything that survived in writing must have
|
||||
served someone's purpose.[^writing] Because writing was so expensive and
|
||||
time-consuming, no-one would've written anything down unless they saw a use in
|
||||
it. Thus, there are no quotes or stories in any text unless someone *wanted*
|
||||
them there.
|
||||
|
||||
[^writing]: This rule stops being true once we reach the modern times with
|
||||
ubiquitous writing. It's so cheap to document stuff now that we get a lot of

unintentional or at least un-edited text.
