Defeatism and cynicism are very effective defense mechanisms, and the internet has made some people absolute experts at both.

All we can do is keep loudly pointing out how daft and counter-productive these behaviors are. Even if it’s true, saying “x is useless” is also useless unless you propose to do y instead.

Foresight is often mistaken for cycicism by those that lack it.

Who said cynical opinions are always factually incorrect? You’re making up an argument.

Thank you for illustrating my point brilliantly; you have contributed nothing of worth, but your feeling of superiority.

It’s just a simple piece of advice, no need to get spikey.
