It's Not Defeatist to be Antinatalist

Argument

Humanity isn't going to reach some grand societal utopia.

That's just reality.

Humans by nature need control to feel safe. With control comes conflict because everyone wants to control the world in their own way. No one wants to be under another person's control. All of society's ills all originate from that innate need for control that's part of human DNA.

I'm not being defeatist by being antinatalist. I'm being a realist, not hiding in delusion that there's hope for a better world in the future so having kids is ok.
