A doomer can only come in if they refrain from lowering the morale of fellow pedes. You can be a doomer in private, but here, it's all high energy, all the time!
Upvote for the positivity, but do you not see the value in strategizing with those who can provide a pessimistic viewpoint?
If you were an engineer building bridges, would you demand your team only to speak when they had great news? Would the guy who pointed out that your concrete mix was prone to failure be shouted out of the room?
A strong team is made up of optimism and the ability to critique that which is lackluster. We are much stronger when we allow the full range of reactions to be heard, so we can avoid fluffing each other up to the point of becoming blind to our own shortcomings.
That’s funny because every time I try to be realistic on TD I get called a fucking doomer and it is childish as shit. I basically took a year off work to volunteer for the campaign’s efforts in my state (and we won in one of the most important battlegrounds).
I’m not a fucking doomer. I gave a huge portion of my time to help this year, and that is way more helpful to the campaign than posting memes on a website.
It is hilarious to be called a doomer by someone who has more likely than not done absolutely nothing to actually help the campaign get out the vote.

you can be a realist without being a doomer
you can ask hard questions without destroying morale
