i don’t personally love seeing antinatalism stuff on my feed especially since it tends to attract really nasty proto-eugenics types

can we not, or at the bare minimum mark this nsfw?

Curious about your age and social group. Pretty much everyone I associate with doesn't want to have kids, usually citing the world their children would inherit. These definitely aren't the type of people that support eugenics, in any way. Are you of the belief that we should be increasing the world's population? If so, why?

You need to go learn about Demographic Transition. The world’s population is naturally going to cap itself this century.

People choose to have less kids since there's less of a need to invest in human capital. It's a conscious choice, what's your point?
