15. Anti-natalists aren't usually right-wing

And I'll say "usually" because we don't have full information on this one yet. But, I see a lot of it in the more extreme hinterlands of eco movements. Think being severely against overpopulation and its effects on the environment.

Although bombing an IVF clinic to make your point is novel as hell. That anti-natalism could go there never crossed my mind. A total inversion of the anti-abortion extremist. I thought they were just cranky anti-social people grousing online.

It's interesting if nothing else.
