    I already had two kids and let me tell you 7 years with their mother really took a toll on me. I happily fap to anime chicks now with a clean conscience I am done with real women.

    People turn to escapism because they are struggling to make connections in the outside world, not the other way around.

    Yes, the ruling class wants to reduce the global population, which is why the ruling class is also constantly talking about how we need to increase birthrates.

      Who is the “ruling class” in this context? Governments, billionaires, someone entirely different? Because I think you’ll find it might not be the same people doing each of these things…

      i mean ruling class // basic economics

      lots of old people + more pensions + more healthcare costs + less young people working = young people pay more taxes + work harder for less = a bad thing

      outside of some techno fantasy solution where robots care for the elderly (how dystopian in itself) having more old people than young people is never a good thing

        But it’s good for the current old people that can exploit the labor of a larger young population and then die before they have to deal with the fallout.

    I don’t think that’s why people aren’t reproducing. I also think it’s probably okay if maybe Earth just wasn’t meant to have 9 billion people on it.

        Food isn’t everything, we’re overusing resources in other spaces too; People don’t really want to slow down on electrical consumption, travel or general waste/plastics

      9-10 billion wouldn’t be a problem if our food was mostly vegan… We’d even still have space left that we could rewild.

            Yes! Oh my God. I’ve never been so happy to be disproven. Now, next step. Does she make your amyl bottle drop to the floor, eyes rolled and tongue lolled, or do you keep the seal on while goon-scrolling for something younger?

          1. Girl?
          2. I could list you thousands of either adult women or children who aren’t sexualized. Just because a few anime’s do, doesn’t mean all are like that. And yes, it’s only a few. Gooners are represented, but there are hundred of thousands of bl mangas and non comedy anime’s. (Not to mention manga, manhua and light novels.)

            Girl. As in what the post refers to. You just claimed you could list thousands of examples yet didn’t list one.

              Go to myanimelist and look at the genres like slice of life, gourmet or horror. Sure, slice of life has stuff like Kobayashi maid dragon which is kinda weird with the three children. But around it are all, to my knowledge, “normal” anime’s.

              that wasn’t part of your question. have you now changed it to “show me an animu you jork it to that doesn’t look like a kid”? because that’s pretty damn close to accusing every respondent of being a paedo.
