Ugh, this is just going to feed the pessimists. Look, I get it. All extremes are bad. Myself - I trend more negative than positive. But I have a couple of friends that are positive bundles of joy and optimism. I find them invigorating and inspiring to be around and they push me to have a more pleasant outlook. They are not posiopaths. But my partner (who has long-term struggles with clinical depression) is positively nauseated by them. If she read this article, she'd probably start naming these people as posiopaths, even though they don't reflect the antipatterns described. A part of me wants to send this article to her to show what TRUE positive-only attitudes look like, but I suspect she'll just map it directly to those whose positivity makes her feel worse about her own negativity, and consider the matter closed.
