Optimism isn't the dark and seedy vice you seem to think it is. Having hope for the future is a positive trait that can lead to a sense of purpose, and a drive to improve the human condition. I don't think that Dr. Pinker's optimism is synonymous with Trudeau's leftist naivety.
He should have written a novel if he has 'hope for the future' rather than indulging in backing his optimism with dubious statistics.
Reading your book is a pleasure.
What do you say to the Jordan Peterson's of the world who say you're overly optimistic and don't understand the true debased nature of humanity?
Probably "read my book".
I dare say there is at least a valid a way of interpreting the same data and reaching a conclusion other than one supporting free market capitalism
Go on...

I am convinced there is a heritable “worry gene locus.”
