Indeed. The all-knowing self-proclaimed realists and cynics and skeptics might not want to admit this since they're arrogant fucks who think they can never be wrong on anything, but not a single person in the world has ever perfectly imagined what the future will be like. It will be both good and bad in ways that the optimists have never imagined, and likewise both good and bad in ways that the pessimists have never imagined.
