A virtual optimist is a person who portrays a positive and hopeful future on social media, while generally not doing anything in real life to impact that future, expecting it to happen on its own.
1. You need to stop being a virtual optimist, this neighborhood hasn't improved in the last 20 years and keeps getting worse, since no one cares to do anything about it.
2. "Don't just migrate to another country!"
"Why not?"
"Things are going to be way better in 10 years time"
"Yeah, says you and every other virtual optimist out there!"

A term used to describe someone who is optimistic in such situations where a majority of people (or, just one particular person) do not want to hear optimism because it is unwelcome; such as Monday morning in an office enviorment.
This term can also be used outside "the office" to describe someone who just might be too optimistic.

Someone who wants the experiences that go with being male, but never the negative consequences that go with being male, which is why she thinks being male vomes with lots of privileges that she doesn't have. In reality females get to do lots of things males don't, and you don't see as many males whining about wanting to have the same experiences females get to have.
Hopefully the jury will give the officer that shot Daunte Wright the same negative experience that they gave a male, Derek Chauvin, since some females seem to think life would be better/easier if they were male. Hopefully they don't go as easy on her as a jury usually would a female, after all Daunte Wright would usually be the bad guy just for being a male involved in a confrontation with a female, without anybody thinking about why it might have happened, and mindlessly defending the female, as usual. The boundless optimist was the real cynic, because nobody else had to be optimistic or look forward to something that wasn't positive, they could take a spade for what it was.

Optimistic Negativity is when you are saying negative things in a very cheerful and optimistic way, saying things about self hatred, the failing economy, fucked up school systems, etc. but in an optimistic, cheerful, and even joking way.

Literal: Characterised by or reflective of a positive outlook on the future, believing that the best possible outcome will happen.
Contextual: When you've got more faith in your startup's future than a kid in a candy store. It's the entrepreneurial spirit that sees the glass as not just half full, but overflowing, no matter how many investors say otherwise.
Balanced Perspective: While their optimism fuels their drive, they also navigate with a compass of cautious pessimism, strategic cynicism, and a dash of paranoia. This balance ensures they're not just dreamers but pragmatic visionaries who prepare for every twist and turn. They celebrate their optimism, but their strategy meetings echo with 'what ifs,' reflecting a readiness for unexpected challenges.

Literal Definition:
Capital that is invested with patient, hopeful and positive outlook on the future success of a venture, particularly in the early stages of a company's growth.
