While there is the argument of not contributing to overpopulation, in my view anti-natalism is the application of moral utilitarianism to an absurd degree. I also think it can (not will of course) lead to eugenics policies. Indeed, a poor person birthing a child more immoral than a rich person. Certainly the rich child is much more likely to live a better life than the poor. Should we therefore be more willing to regulate the reproductive capabilities of the poor? I think this is where anti-natalism breaks down - forcing it on anyone, or creating policy to support it, is in my view will always be deeply immoral.

If Belgium, Canada, UK, etc. were serious, all trade would be cut to Israel until they stopped the genocide

In my experience every second paper I ran into needed a subscription, although I am guessing they weren’t federally funded research or from a country where that isn’t required by law
floopus@lemmy.mlto Technology@lemmy.ml•Indian Court orders Internet block of Sci-Hub, Sci-Net and Libgen after publisher request32·26 days agoWe really need to push for fully open access research. I believe the ACM has announced a transition to open access, so there is that. However I think there needs to be legislated open access. Specifically, any federally funded research (or research from publicly funded universities) that is to be published should be forced to be open access. In America I don’t think that’s going to happen for a while lmao, but hopefully other countries can do this.

floopus@lemmy.mlto World News@lemmy.ml•NATO states to send Kiev another $50bn in military aid – official1·30 days agoRussia is clearly imperialist, just ask chechnya, georgia, and indeed Ukraine. There was/is also the Wagner group which represented Russian presence in Africa. Also the war crimes committed by Russia in the Kharkiv Region says everything I need to know about them.
In terms of holding preference towards Russia or America, I am tempted to choose neither. Clearly America has engaged in pretty blatantly evil shit over the decades its been a super power. However, I would argue the only reason why Russia could be viewed as not as “evil” as America is because Russia is simply unable to engage in the same levels of imperialism.
So given this, I do not support either America or Russia. I support Ukraine’s independence, and the way to do that is to send military aid, which I fully support
