Oh, but someone has to eat dog shit for you to eat cake. You know that's true.
Does humanity have a moral obligation to terminate itself, to spare (or prevent) an unlucky few from intolerable suffering? Arguably, yes. While all you happy (or happy enough) optimists go about your day, thinking life is good, there will always be a few malcontents who hate being alive, and just want the whole thing to end, as that would be the ideal solution, for a number of reasons. One of those reasons being, if reincarnation is real, no more humans means no more reincarnation, and thus, a guaranteed end to human suffering.
