  1. If you listen to what she's saying, she's not dissing Captain Tom. She's dissing the people who crap on his memory. It's a clumsy way of attracting attention.

  2. Callum, antinatalists don't believe in killing. They believe in not creating new life. This is a very big and very important distinction. Antinatalism is about the prevention of future suffering. They don't advocate for death or the end of a life that already exists - that would involved suffering. But if you prevent a new life from being brought into being, by practising birth control or abstinence, you are thus preventing the suffering that would result from that life. As the Buddha and many other philosophical traditions have said, all life results in suffering. Please educate yourself on the masters you comment on instead of giving frequent offhand snarky little comments that show your lack of knowledge on the things you're commenting about. We expect more from this podcast. We expect informed debate from a platform such as yourselves. If we want uninformed snark, we can just go to Twitter or ask anyone in the pub. 🤦‍♀️
