Seeing exasperated climate scientists showing up in my TL saying people they perceive as doomers should be quiet. For many its a symptom, its a coping mechanism, not a cause. There's a world of difference between hardcore doomers and people who've had AQI>100 for a month, or who see what's happening. You want people to be less nihilistic? Show them good news. Telling them to shut up is just tone policing and will lead them further into darkness.
