being a doomer is just as much as a low iq cope as being an optimist

[IHATEINDIANS]

pessimists are just as low iq as optimists yet people think pessimism=high iq and realist for some reason.

not at all, being a doomer is just an easy low iq cope for lazy contrarians who can't understand multiple truths can apply to a situation at once and want to feel smart

nothing is black and white irl. some things are shit, some things never happen, some things really are as great as they seem, accepting that is what makes you a realist

not that i claim to be high iq but jfl at doomers

 

[nobodylovesme]

It's not about IQ, but yeah, seeing life through such a simplistic lens isn't smart, especially for your own sake.

A little nuance never hurts.

 

[enlightful]

True

Optimism isn't always low iq experience

There's two types.
One for example is what society instills into you, equivalent to .
Or due to your own ego/emotional state, and you overinflating your sense of self.

Then there is ascension from a period of difficulty.

First one is looked down upon because in every area of life, majority of people are initially optimistic because of their ignorance (similar to Dunning Kruger)..
But after the descent (rock bottom)/ understanding why you shouldn't have been optimistic, you eventually start ascending.

In Blackpill terms, going from --> whitepill

This principle exists everywhere, it's just that most people never get too deep into anything that they eventually come out on top of it.

And people who say otherwise, and start looking down on the type of person they recently were (e.g. clowning others who think they are attractive, when they themselves were thinking they're Chad half a year back), will likely remain at the bottom of that trough forever

Incapable to climb out, that cesspit of pessimism ends up drowning them

but the whole point of the white pill is that it isn't pure optimism or pessimism, it's realism, some things are shit and you accept them how they are and it's possible to be happy despite that

but you are right, i was referring to pure optimism/pessimism, it's definitely not low iq to think things will turn out shit or good if that's where the probability is, it's just only thinking that without acknowledging the other chance, or not seeing any good through the bad/vice versa

Pure of either optimism or pessimism doesn't exist
Only children and completely naive, privileged adults believe in that (+ have been allowed to)

But the point is about which you favour, what your perception of that ratio is.
Optimism will always prevail

only 13 year old redditors think this

not really, a surprising amount of adults fall for it, usually subconciously

for example: most people think ww2 was all shit, no good. yes, GENERALLY this is true, but it was also one of the (if not the) most innovative times and for humanity ever. nukes basically ended constant war

a lot of people here do it too

saying you can still find a woman if you're at least average looks and you have some other minor halos even if you won't slay gets you called a low iq coper

saying chad only and it's totally over for everyone else=high iq

Not so. If you want to build a house with a fixed amount of bricks of which the quantity of bricks you can only estimate, you should act as on a very low estimate.

WW2 might be binary (as with a lot of other stuff), but what i meant when I said that was regarding the person as a whole, not speciifc subject matter.
Very few adults have not gone through sufficient adversity + majority of children

sure. but you could also preplan hypothetical additions in case you do have extra bricks as an optional addition. it's good to prepare but don't get stuck on the idea it is only/should be the worst

true you have to be a realist in life

 

[CorinthianLOX]

Water imo. Unfortunately most people don’t see the world in any other form than black and white.
