  • The fact that I just don't want kids is a "legitimate" reason

    It's offensive that you think there are "legitimate" reasons, because it implies that anything else is "illegitimate"

  • That's the thing that so many people seem to miss

    They want reasons that they find acceptable, not "I don't wanna"

  • Anything two idiot teenagers in the back of a car can achieve accidentally is not worthy of praise

  • My fiancée is 'Murican

    We're getting her out of that backwards shit hole and over to Oz

    It's not perfect here, but I've lived in many countries, and it's damned close

    There's a reason why I chose to make it my home

  • That's quite a leap

    I'd happily burn every incel, bigot and halfwit that uses 4chan

    But, I'm sure you think you're clever, or that you have somehow scored an imaginary point

  • And yet, red...

    Taste the rainbow!

  • I was in the top 2% financially in my country before I walked away from that life (the work I did was lucrative, but a brutal grind)

    At no point did money feature into the equation

    I just really don't like kids.

  • It's impossible to stress how little your opinion matters to me

  • Nah,

    I just think that they're annoying, and they would absolutely ruin my life

    There's not a single thing that appeals about having children. Everything I enjoy would be ruined by them

    I wasn't beaten or abused by society. I live in a civilised part of the world, rather than the shit show that is 'Murica

    It's not neccesary to invent grand reasons for not breeding

    I just didn't want to

  • Of course it shifted

    I find your "purpose and outlook" comment to be condescending, clichéd and pointless

    You will spend the rest of your life justifying your choice, and the fact that you felt the need to do so, unprompted, to a complete stranger, who clearly does not give a fuck tells me that you know deep down that you fucked up

    You weren't CF for 35 years if you suddenly changed your mind

    You either weren't CF, or you had kids for some stupid reason, and now feel that you have to justify your "change of heart"

  • That's something that people deliberately ignore

    There's still so much stigma in being child-free that people make up more socially palatable excuses rather than just saying "I don't want kids"

    There is no part of my life that would be improved by having kids

    Every part of my life would be less pleasant if I had kids

    Simples.

  • Don't you want to send all the Jews to Israel?

    Nah, I want Israel to not exist

  • Yeah, they suck too

    Fetterman can suck an exhaust pipe though if he wants to make the world a better place

  • And people bought into that...

    There's good reason why the civilised world sneers at 'Murica

  • The thing that strikes me about 'Murica is the absurdity of voting in all sorts of people, into roles that should not be popularity contests

    It's not about freedom, it's about pretending that it's democratic while the arseholes in what passes for society there have a finger on the scales

    Progressives need to be voting in all the dumb things in their community, because the RWNJS certainly are. Their churches and other institutions are whipping up voter support at that grassroots level and getting their useful idiots voted in.

    This is a part of a very long-term strategy. I hate to admit that it's genius, and has been incredibly effective

    The average 'Murican is completely disengaged and just doesn't care, either because they're too busy trying to survive, too stupid to see the consequences, or too apathetic because they have been beaten into submission by the system

    Compulsory voting is one of the best things about my country, and it has helped to keep it on a relatively even keel, despite the immense influence from 'Murica

  • And now the same can be applied to Zionists

    How the worm has turned...

  • The US is a fucking joke

    Sadly, it ceased to be funny a looooong time ago

  • Don't be obtuse

  • I take pride in my cooking

    I would say "I reheated a pizza" if I lowered myself to doing that

    When I say that I make something, I made it from scratch
