These optimistic messages are the ones I often say are dangerous.

The video describes how important your attitude toward problems is, but in the same video they give themselves away because when the problem is insurmountable, the character flies away, happy flowers, unicorns!

There is nothing more dangerous than a compulsive optimist; run away from them.

You know that my motto is that a pemimist is an optimist with experience.

Obviously, your attitude toward problems is important, but that attitude is not happy flowers; that is a totally unconscious attitude. Your attitude should be analytical, and you should consider what you can do to solve the problem or improve it and accept the emotions that the problem may bring.

The best advice for life is to learn to live with pain and never give up.

This is precisely the problem created by influencers who tell you that bitcoin is going to the moon, generating false expectations. And since you haven't prepared yourself to live with the pain, when those expectations aren't met, the consequences are painful.

How could a mere mortal like me, much more backward than you think, predict the price of bitcoin two years down the line? Simply by analyzing capital flows and extrapolating, child's play mathematics.

I hope you get the idea: don't be optimistic just for the sake of it, analyze and accept reality, closer to stoicism than to the bullshit that some people sell about positivity.

Runaway from optimists? That, sir, is retarded. The message of the video is totally lost on you.

You don't understand anything, you better stop following me 😂

When the problem is insurmountable - you can either fail, or learn something new and figure it out.

Flying. Its metaphor for learning a new skill in a stick figure cartoon FFS.

What is your pessimistic advice for an “insurmountable problem?”

People should probably be running away from you.
