I have a lot of points to make and I will make them later.
I think they've never taken anything down so all the wkuk clips predate standards on youtube

serious questionn do people have an obligation or a responsibility to contribute to society? I thought 'obviously, like, at least a little bit' but no joke I got shouted down for 3 solid days by several people who thought the answer was no no no no how dare you

Nobody asked to be born. Why should I be obligated to contribute to society when I didn't ask to be born?

do you want anyone to care about your assertion or not? if not, why bother asserting it?

if no one asked to be born and it's impossible for anyone to ask to be born the question of consenting to be born is kind of a non-starter

That wasn't the point of the post though. If one did not ask to be born, then why should one be forced into a lifetime of participating in something they do not wish to participate in?

if absolutely no one ever has or ever could have asked to be born, why would it be persuasive to mention that for anything?

for example: "well i didn't ask to be born without infinity super heat laser vision"...ok??

is my point of my post

It's persuasive because it's the foundation to the question. If one had no choice to be born, why must one be forced to participate in society? Normally, most people want to participate in society, and want to better themselves and the communities of which they live. I want to do that as well, but I also have a family to feed, and the above doesn't pay the bills.
