Re: Cynicism VS Optimism

AYRT

In short, "There's always a chance."

It's unrealistic to think it will work all the time. But it's just as unrealistic to believe things can't work out. Do I think all racists wil suddenly change their minds? Nope! But do I believe there's always a chance they could? Yeah. Am I gonna treat them like I expect them to change tomorrow? No way! That'd be stupid. But if someone told me "there's no possible way to fix this problem" I'd believe they're unrealistically pessimistic.

I would respect their choice not to try. Sometimes I don't try either. Sometimes trying isn't worth it. But I don't deny there's a chance.

Let me add that I totally do not blame others for not trying. Sometimes it's dangerous. Sometimes it costs you too much. Sometimes you have tried 9000 times and it hasn't worked and you're just not the right person at the right time with the right influence that can make any sort of difference in the situation. That happens too and is totally understandable. Nobody should feel guilt about that.

But for me, there's always the "maybe someone else can. Maybe someday something will happen to change things. People do change. The only inevitability in history is change. And positive changes are, logically speaking, an undeniable possibility."

If a situation is affecting someone negatively and they want to just avoid it entirely for their own sanity though, I get it.
