Understood. That is the reverse side of the same coin. Both doomers and hopium addicts are blindly walking forward pretending to know what lies ahead.
We should understand anything is possible from here and prepare accordingly. If the hopium addicts are right, nothing is lost and we can continue as normal. If the doomers are right, we need to be prepared. Pretend they are right when preparing.
But do not despair. That serves us not at all. In the end we will prevail, though it may be more difficult than anyone expects. Read the story of James Bond Stockdale.

Not really true. The hopium bullshit is completely created by shills and propagated by useful idiots.
There has always been room for discussion and discourse, but the shills forced binary discussions and purposely distort and misrepresent accordingly. Which is not representative of the bulk of people.
All speaking of hopium have been affected by propaganda. In ways they likely do not know. This is how useful idiots are created.
If you control the language of debate, you win the debate. This is also the purpose of political correctness. Literal mind control.
People screeching of hopium are shills or useful idiots. That's the power of propaganda.
And people screeching doom are not shills or useful idiots? Are you certain it isn't part of a demoralization effort to push us into action (suicide, terrorism, etc.)? How can you be certain of anything people on the internet type?
It is all information that should be gathered and interpreted. However, you should always assume the worst will happen. Hope is the drug of the fool. You cannot control what happens, and instead can only control your own actions. Things will happen as they will (in the broader sense). We simply have a part to play in the greater scheme.
None of that really has anything to do with what I said.
And contrary to your rant, a hopeless people are a demoralized people. This is why black pilled people are historically killed.
