Why does there seem to be a connection between vegan anarchism and anti-natalism? The idea of anti-natalism makes me incredibly depressed, and I do not agree with it, but I’m open to commentary and debate.

Never heard of “anti-natalism”, but I can guess: Vegan-anarchism is often going together with primitivist-anarchist or anti-civ type of ideas, and those can only work if the total world population is significantly reduced.
Not quite an anarcho-primitivist idea, it’s the idea that it’s morally wrong to have children.
Ah because of the idea that they are not aware of their existence (and cannot choose as that) before they are born, right?
Not quite. One of the main reasons is that life is kinda shitty, and by having children you are condemning them to shittines.
Yes, they can’t consent to be born?
