Fake videos show frustrated, unmarried, childless middle-aged women crying and venting in hospital hallways about their life choices.
I would lose so much respect for my parents if they used an AI generated video to try and convince me of something.
Would you respect your parents more of they paid actors and a cameraman to create the video instead?
At least then they put some effort into it
Seems more likely to cause some suicides.
My parents and extended family: “why don’t you find a nice girl to [blah blah blah]”
Me: “haha yes I’ll get right on that”
Me: having mega gay sex in addition to actively not wanting children, even if I was medically a good candidate to father them
Parents/extended: “I just don’t understand”
Me: upgrades to ultra mega gay sex

I don’t think that means what you think it means, but I won’t tell anyone… 🤫
(DA require someone to end themselves or their ability to carry on their bloodline though blatant stupidity of some fashion; merely not reproducing does not count)
Out of curiosity, what is the second level upgrade or evolution?

it goes gay, gayra, gayraga, gayraja
Childless, child free.This is such an important distinction, tbh
They’re each trying to put their own spin on it, there is no actual distinction in the words, just in the subtext/implication.
The former implies it’s a lacking of a necessary thing, the latter implies it’s the avoidance of an unnecessary burden. It’s completely subjective whether a child is one or the other to someone.
It’s a broadcast of one’s own biases to consider either of these terms more ‘valid’ than the other.

You seem to misunderstand. No one is saying one term is more valid than the other. They are different words meant to describe different people.
A person that doesn’t want children, and doesn’t have any, is considered childfree.
A person that wants children, but doesn’t have any, is considered childless.
Since these parents are trying to convince their children to have kids, said children are clearly childfree, not childless. A childless person that wants children wouldn’t need convincing
At the very least, if you’re trying to persuade to have kids, people who have chosen to not have kids, those people are not childless, they are child free. Their will is to be without child. They are not failing at having kids, they are succeeding at not having them.
I am dubious of your intermediate and final claims. For something to be necessary, it means that one cannot go without it. Is procreation a biological imperative, with strong positive reinforcement from the individual’s biological feedbacks? Sure. But is it necessary? Strictly, no.
I don’t think you can make the claim that someone saying it is not necessary is inherently biased. To claim that procreation is not strictly necessary is a neutral, objectively true position. The bias in the perspective of “child-free” is the implied framing of the lack of procreation as a personal or moral good. Procreation is, again, unnecessary, and is (in many ways literally) a burden. Whether one frames that unnecessary burden as positive or negative is at issue here.
I don’t appreciate the claim that people must be biased in order to observe simple facts, denuded of emotion.
Parents (not being able to tell the videos are AI-generated): “See this? This will be you in 30 years if you don’t get married and have kids very soon!”
Kids (able to see the videos are visit AI-generated): “Suuuuure!”
The fact that it’s AI generated tells the kids that it doesn’t happen in real life.
Worst than going to the hospital alone and spending old age alone is doing that after doing all the work of having kids. I will be alone and I’m taking care of that but I know people relying on children that don’t give a fuck about them.
Nice to know the ungodly toxic, overbearing and boundryless parent is a universal phenomenon.
Why pay though?
Why do people pay for anything? So they don’t have to make it themselves.
It’s AI generated, it takes two seconds
How is life in China actually? There must be a reason people don’t want children. I imagine work culture, bad pay, bad prospects, and inability to secure housing are top among the reasons.
NYT put out a video 3 weeks ago covering a few guys that couldn’t get women. The video says there’s 30 million more men than women in the country due to the one child policy.
But that figure could be inflated
I’ve seen a documentary (i think it was on Arte) with similar numbers. It was about a guy founding an organisation to search for kidnapped city women sold as wifes in the countryside. His own wife was kidnapped and sold… the police never found her (like many others) so he took it in his own hands.
Maybe work on fixing that 16% youth unemployment rate, think that’ll work a lot better then showing them slop
AI is a shit show.
Absolutely unhinged lol
china’s long history of controlling their
citizens’prisoners’ reproductionHave a feeling this will backfire simply because comedy
