It’s a common error of judgement to assume that people who don’t share your unvarnished enthusiasm are cynics. One way to test for this is to see if you can intelligently address the concerns of “cynics” without just waving your hands and invoking the rosy future you imagine. It can be helpful to look to the past and present and try to understand why people have reservations, and address them comprehensively.

The original comment was cynical wasn't it?
