I do not think it means what you think it means.
- lqet 7y agoAs a non-native speaker: do you care to elaborate why you think this word is incorrect here?
- xsmasher 7y agoThe word refers to a belief fate or destiny; but the usage here implied negativity or pessimism of some kind. A "pessimistic outlook" is probably closer to what they wanted to express.
- atombender 7y agoLooks like a perfectly apt use of the word. A fatalistic worldview can mean, for example, that they expect humankind's destructive impulses will always lead to its own destruction.
