FBI links California fertility clinic bombing to anti-natalist ideology

The car bombing outside a California fertility clinic that killed one person and injured four others appears to have been driven by anti-natalist ideology, according to two senior law enforcement officials briefed on the incident.
The suspect, identified by authorities as Guy Edward Bartkus, is believed to have carried out Saturday's explosion, which resulted in his own death.
Investigators are focusing on social media posts made by the suspect, including a 30-minute audio recording, which they say support anti-natalist views. While the posts and the recording are still being verified, officials believe they reflect the ideology behind the bombing. Anti-natalism refers to the belief that no one should have children.
This immediately makes me think this is a plot to make "anti-natalism" considered terrorism. Not a single person I know of who is against having kids is radical about it, but oh man are the pro birth weird Christians sure radical about it.
Don’t want kids? Straight to jail.
Birth quotas incoming
This is very much my concern as well.
Having been to the antinatalist subreddit back when I still visited the other place, I can say there were deffo some weird folks in there and that as a matter of statistics I could see one or two being that far gone. This also applied to most of the other anti-thing places there though, ex. Two million subscribers to r/atheism, that's two "one in a million" whackjobs.
The childfree subreddit was pretty toxic, too. Calling people with kids mombies cause they think they're better than them. 🙄
I reckon that any group of two or more people that gravitate around an ideology is probably gonna have at least one weirdo in it.
That's kind of where I'm at, I see bad people in every single camp. Every single one. It's no big deal, that's human nature, but we can't gatekeep radicals out of any camp. I see some pretty radical people on here, wishing death on people & such.
Not everything that happens has to be a massive conspiracy; something like this was bound to happen sooner or later. All kinds of people get really riled up over IVF.
