Life was a mistake

Especially on social media is starting to really annoy me.
Anyone with a "negative" attitude toward life, is a loser, boring, pathetic, a wimp, a downer, etc. It's "cool" to be an optimist, it's "lame" to be a pessimist or realist.
Like they wanna peer pressure people into changing their world view.
I wonder how many of these constant toxic positivity spouting people secretly don't believe what they're saying, but just don't want to acknowledge the alternative because they know they'd be socially ostracized.
And then there's the ones who believe they cured their depression through positive thinking, and now you can do it too! (Ugh.)
There are a lot of people in genuinely shit circumstances in life, who hate the world and see it for how it is and no amount of temporary pleasures or happiness will change that, nor will adopting a "positive attitude."
I guess I just hate this kind of sentiment of "saying the world/life sucks is depressing so let's just ignore that and pretend like it's not. And also let's treat anyone who has symptoms of "depression" like the plague 'cause they're a bummer."
The world really wants us gone, they should just up and say it, but still won't let us go peacefully.
