Pessimism/Pessimist
Cynical nay-saying, or one who cynically nay-says. Seeing only the bad, with little to no hope for a good outcome. Gloomy Gus.
Life is like playing chess with chessmen who each have thoughts and feelings and motives of their own.
Re: Pessimism/Pessimist
Etymological cousins, one might say, rather than siblings, of ‘pejorative’ and - go know - ‘pejorate’.

Re: Pessimism/Pessimist
Pejorative can be visited here. That's what made me think to suggest pessimism. That and it being how I view much of the world these days.
