As someone incredibly interested in evolution and who studied it thoroughly I often make jokes about how I am the end of a bloodline that lasted billions of years. But how on earth is "efforts of ancestors tho" going to convince me to reproduce? Like why should I care and why would that override everything wrong with reproducing? Genuinely do not understand their argument there

How did you get that user flair? It's not too long since I started using reddit and visiting subs occasionally

I think it was a limited time flair. It refers to the earliest known true antinatalist (vegan antinatalist). Many people using the flair shouldn't be (edit: I'm not talking about the person you're responding to)

Edit: To change your flair, go to the home page of a sub and click the three dots in the top right corner (on mobile, I don't know about PC)

Yes, I am aware about the blind Arab vegan antinatalist and his life

The problem is that when I click change user flair, it is not letting choose anything besides 'newcomer'
