Thats not how this works. You dont change the words or the meaning. You change the perpective to show why this is a problem.
You speak from a position of privilege. People who are in dire need of help dont have that privilege. You calling their issues or the descritption doomerism is out of touch.
I'm helping people out by letting them know that their doomerism is an ingredient in their own failure. When all you can imagine is your own failure, you will most likely achieve what you believe in.
When you open your mind to realize that the possibilities are endless, you can see solutions that you ignored out of pessimism and begin to adapt in the ways that allow you to overcome adversity. Even the smallest microcosm of any ecosystem has infinite possibilities within it. On the macro scale of human life, these possibilities are only limited by the imagination and will of the human animal. So when you assume everything is going to shit and you'll never win, you already failed by crippling your own imagination.
I dont know why you‘re going off on a tangent right there but alas. I dont have time for this.
