What makes you think a "positive outlook on things" is the right way to think about the world in general, and those issues in particular?

"Positive Outlook" maybe sounds a bit naive. I mean that people have the means to do things and change things. Not everything is just a power play. Of course some situations in the world can be very bad, but even then I don't see how musing about power structures would help.
I guess it is (for me) about practical approaches and solutions vs theoretical musings.
Also in general people are not all that bad. Even most bad people are just misguided, not inherently bad.
