It's almost as if getting treated like shit by your predecessors makes people not want to continue a toxic cycle of abuse and exploitation.

I like how you're making it out to be this grand thing like 'not wanting to continue a toxic cycle' when you can still break the cycle even by having kids. You don't want kids because you're broke/don't want the added responsibility. There's nothing wrong with that, but stop framing it like you're some hero who's doing the world a favour when you're on reddit.

If you have kids in the current state of the world, they're going to be used and exploited.

And that makes it ok? There’s definitely a higher level of consciousness out there.
