It's cause you continue to think I'm addressing you as glass-half-emptys. Philosophical pessimism is not the same thing as the pessimism you're familiar with. Read my posts, I'm not ****ting on anybody.
Read up on Schopenhauer. Nietzsche's view lines up with him but he's more of a "life-affirming" pessimist while Schopenhauer was the opposite. They're still both pessimists and Nietzsche, as I'm sure your aware, is the one who popularized nihilist theory.
