nti-natalism

Besides Rust’s philosophical pessimism, he also holds to a school of thought known as anti-natalism. Anti-natalism is the view;

• that humans should stop procreating, because bringing a human life into the world is ethically wrong (many nihilists create a system of ethics which focuses on reducing suffering in the world.)
• natalists also argue that no one enters the world consensually, but is thrust into the world without having a say in it.

Following his pessimistic outlook to it’s natural conclusion, Rust connects with the anti-natalist view.
