Hundreds of thousands of babies are born every day. While the whole phenomenon is menacing, one of them by itself is not newsworthy. Nor is it a difficult achievement—even some fish can do it. (Now, if you were a seahorse, it would be more interesting, since it would be the male that gave birth.) ...These birth announcements also spread the myth that having a baby is something to be proud of, which fuels natalist pressure, which leads to pollution, extinction of wildlife, poverty, and ultimately mass starvation.~ RMS

Isn’t that a shame that in 20-years time, those who are now still babies will have to take up the bulk of the economic burdens for some withering wastes of space like Stallman himself? Well, at least we have the reassurance that eventually these “anti-natalist” nutjobs will fall out of the gene pool and cease being a strain to human society.
Babies threaten Stallman because they could potentially bring new ideas to the table, rather than simply indoctrinating some butthurt rhetoric.
Anyone having more than 2 babies is contributing to the overpopulation and uncontrolled increase of population problems or poor planet has, though.
