> Oh, is the world fundamentally terrible and there's no reason to do anything? Then why haven't you killed yourself?

That is a silly argument because it's about expecting a bad outcome in the future, not about being certain about the entirety of the future (including your personal life) to be negative. Plus every being is fundamentally, on an instinctual level motivated to survive, reproduce and avoid pain.

> Is it because you actually think that the world can be fixed but you want other people to do the work and you figure they will if you bitch enough?

Yes, that is essentially the mindset. But in no shape or form is there a "logical" conclusion which leads to suicide. Even in the most dire dystopia you can escape or stand your ground as they come for you.

And even then: A better alternative to suicide is to give up your life and comfort to kill. If I wanted to end my own life, I'd do that instead.
