The difference between pessimism and cynicism is that the former allows for action and strategy, while the latter often sees our demise as surely inevitable. It's a fine line to walk, and I definitely fail to stay on balance at times.
My pessimism isn't so much a belief that things won't change, or that they can't in principle. It's a simple acknowledgement that the cards are stacked against us by mere probability.
