Welcome to this special one-off collab with the Non-toxic Podcast! Huge thanks to Daniel Penny for inviting Matti & I on the show!

From the manosphere to the atmosphere, Non-toxic is a podcast devoted to understanding the ways masculinity and the climate crisis intersect. Join us for conversations with experts, journalists, and regular guys on topics ranging from how to blow up a pipeline to why incels are obsessed with alphas to why you should consider getting buried in a mycelium coffin.
Hosted by critic and journalist Daniel Waite Penny and environmental reporter Andrew Lewis.

In this episode of Non-toxic, we're talking with activist Amanda Sukenick and philosopher Matti Häyry about the state of antinatalist thinking, exploring the arguments about risk and the potential for suffering that have come to animate a certain corner of the "doomer" climate conversation.

This is the second in a two part series on climate babies. Last week, we talked to Sian Norris about far-right efforts to roll back women's bodily autonomy in order to increase populations of white Americans and Europeans and keep out people from the Global South. This week, we're thinking about the other side of the climate baby coin—from pronatalists to antinatalists—who argue humanity should cease to exist completely.

#82 - Ryan L. Showler (Translator of Zapffe’s On the Tragic!)

My name is Nimrod and bout 10 months ago I started doing street anti-natalism activism with the aim of establishing an anti-natalist movement in Israel calling for an end to reproduction. To my surprise it is working better than I thought. This experience has filled me with a sense of belief and hope: if there is room for street activism on such an issue in a place like Israel, even though for all sorts of reasons this country is far from ideal place to start spreading messages about reproduction, I think it can work in many areas of Europe. I think we must try to make this happen.

That's why I decided to go on a journey to try and promote anti-natalism activism throughout Europe. The journey will begin on April 15 and will include over 30 cities in 45 days.

The goal of this journey is to try and initiate grassroots activism in Europe, so obviously the best thing I am hoping for is that people simply join me at the outreach events. That's literally the whole point of this thing. To help initiating some street activism in the hope of spreading anti-natalism across the continent on a regular basis.

The best thing you can do if you want to help is of course to get to the activity, because that's the whole idea of this journey. But if it doesn't work out for you with your schedule, or you really don't want to be public with this worldview or whatever reason you have but you still want to help, the best way to help in general, and financially in particular, is if you can host me for the night. Beyond a significant cut in expenses, it would be really nice to meet likeminded people and spend an evening with them. I would very much appreciate such an option if you can.

For more details about the EuropeAN Tour, or to join the journey’s WhatsApp group, please send a message to the following Email: theeuropeantour2024@gmail.com, or send a private message on Facebook to ‘AN T Natalism’, URL: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100085281495305

The Exploring Antinatalism Podcast is the world's first podcast dedicated to the subject of Antinatalism, created by Antinatalists! Antinatalism, (Or Anti-Natalism.) Is defined by Wikipedia as, “A philosophical position and social movement that assigns a negative value to birth.” The world of Antinatalism is very vast, and though most Antinatalists do share a kernel of the same core idea, what one Antinatalist believes from the next can be wildly different. What The Exploring Antinatalism Podcast seeks to showcase,  is a wide range of the various perspectives and ideas throughout Antinatalism as it exists today, through interviews with Antinatalist thinkers and creators of all kinds. Exploring Antinatalism was originally founded in early 2020 by various members of the now extinct, Rogue Philosophy: Antinatalism Discord, but soon grew away from being a team effort, to a mostly solo project run and hosted by long time Antinatalist content producer, Amanda ‘Oldphan’ Sukenick. (Foreverwolffilms on YouTube.), with the exception of sometimes host/co-host, Mark J. Maharaj (Question Mark? on YouTube). Thank you for listening to Exploring Antinatalism!
