AAP Ep. 4 - Responding to Peter Singer on Antinatalism with @LawrenceAnton
In this episode, John and Lawrence respond to philosopher Peter Singer, for many the father of Effective Altruism, on the subject of antinatalism. In particular, they discuss if it is a harm to create sentient beings who will die prematurely (in this case, 'happy' chickens), and whether vegans and others looking to do good in the world should have children. Enjoy!
