My most radical act, the one that truly allowed me to break free from this system that seeks to exploit the human being, has been not bringing children into this world. Living in a society that pushes you to consume, to produce, to follow the game of an endless cycle, is a mental prison. And not contributing to that shitshow, refusing to bring new life into this fucked-up system, has been my form of resistance. I don’t want to be part of that chain that keeps pushing people into the despair of following the script that’s been imposed on us.
People talk about parenthood as if it’s a heroic act, but are you really doing good by bringing children into a world where everything is designed for them to fail, for them to be prey to a system that leaves no room for true freedom? No, I’ve decided that my fight begins there. I don’t want to be part of that lie, that vicious cycle. Not giving them life to condemn them to live in a cage with no way out has been my way of saying “enough.”
