I like this reasoning. It is like being sat at the computer in March of 2020 and posting “These predictions of a bad thing happening can not be accurate — I should know, I lived through the 1973 oil crisis” in that “nothing bad ever happens” is more fantastical than saying something bad might happen.
We are quite literally living the aftermath of a Bad Thing that die-hard optimists were factually wrong about at the outset.
You're not listening. I never said bad things won't happen. I said we can manage it with good examples of policies and experimentation rather than fear mongering. How can anyone object to that?
