After hearing about embryos/eggs being misused, I can’t trust my genetic material to some corporation. If I could do it myself that might be an option but hardware fails. I’d rather just keep my faculties intact and be discerning with who I have sex with.
With the way the world is going, reproducing is certainly a choice. But if it truly remains a concern, there is the option of freezing sperm.
I got a vasectomy and it has been amazing. Easily one of the best decisions of my life.
Oh, please, with this nihilistic nonsense. When in history would you have said “it’s a great time to reproduce!”?
It’s irrelevant. “It’s a choice” is also quite literal; modern contraceptives have only really been available for less than 100 years.
Education and access to information are also key points that cannot be hand-waived.
Edit: I’ll offer a counter-question. How bad would things have to get before you decided that it would be a bad idea to reproduce?

That’s a very fair concern, given the fuckery we’ve seen from corpos.
This is so nihilistic, dramatic, and ridiculous.
The lives of ordinary people have been far far far far worse for 99.999% of human history.
Don’t be such a doomer.
What? You are opposed to freezing sperm? Or opposed to vasectomies in general?
