Humans are awesome. To be pessimistic and negative is easy. Takes more skill, courage and valor to be optimistic.

We ‘gon be alright!

Why so many pessimistic losers in the world right now? My thought:

It is considered amoral and unethical to be “optimistic”— given all the pain and suffering in the world.

A sign of decadence and decline in society. Signals of a soft society.
