Calling into question optimism and entrepreneurship can be a very existential question, I admit that believing the phenomenon is overblown and of the data dubious is very tempting given the mental weight it clears. But the irony for this population (me included) is that it’s the same as believing in afterlife to alleviate the existential dread of death, it’s religious thinking. People do great things without being death denialists, it should be the same without climate denialism.
