Hard to say.
To be able to make such choice implies that I already exist in some form.
And I’d probably be too afraid of non-existence to choose not being born.
Life sucks, but I also don’t want to “not-exist”. Its terrifying.
Can I just be a ghost floating around and just “chill” and observe? Perhaps in the company of other ghosts to talk to…
Non-existence isn’t scary, scary thing is losing your existence.
Certainly not.
Why not?
gestures vaguely at everything
I would rather have not experienced my life.
no.
Same
Certainly yes.
No. Not even remotely. Not even if I was assured it was a simulation. No.
Fuuuuuck no.
No. And thats the reason i don’t have kids.
Humanity is rotten, and personally i don’t think we’ll ever change. The best thing that can happen to earth is for humanity to collapse and become extinct.
Fuck no.
I’m echoing a lot of the replies here by saying “No.” Even if I’m given a choice as to what kind of life I’d live, still no.
Even if people say there’s a lot of good things in life, or that there are people living their dreams in this world, still no. I don’t play the lottery, even if I might end up with more money than I could ever hope to spend. The same logic applies here.
There would be no me to regret not existing if I don’t exist.
Others have already answered this well, but I’ll repeat it anyway: No.
Even if my life currently is not bad, there are and have been bad times. Not existing is never bad. So no.
Warning: ITT, lots of nonresponse bias.
Life dissatisfaction guides people to type no;
neutrally satisfied folks will skip;
the relatively contented might type a “yes” or be offline.
With today’s historical context, there’s a bit of a skew, especially for those hanging out online o( ; ´ ﹏ `;)oAs for me, I’m excepted. I have decent dissatisfaction rather often, but arrogantly – I’d be born a million times, every time (unless you ask me at a bad moment).
Even at my worst, why do I not roll over and die? “I want to see how my story ends.”
No is not such a pleasant decision in this question, in order to answer this way you need to really feel or witness really bad things. Therefore, a large number of such answers says something…
Hell no
No
