Fatalistic describes a person, a look, a shrug, a sentence, a whole mood: it means they are thinking like a fatalist. A fatalistic attitude says, ‘Nothing I do will change this.’ Writers like the word because it paints a picture — a fatalistic smile, a fatalistic silence — without a long explanation.

The word is a little grown-up and essay-like, but you will also hear it in news when someone describes a crowd that has stopped hoping. Though actually, people call themselves realistic when others hear them as fatalistic: the line between ‘I cannot fix this today’ and ‘nothing ever changes’ is easy to cross, and easy to argue about.

the word這個字 is a little grown-up and essay-like有點成熟、偏文章用語 but but you will also hear it in news你也會在新聞裡聽到 when someone describes a crowd that has stopped hoping用來形容一群已經不抱希望的人。 though actually不過其實 people有人 call themselves realistic會說自己是realistic when others hear them as fatalistic別人聽起來卻覺得是fatalistic: the line between "I cannot fix this today" and "nothing ever changes"『我今天沒辦法解決這件事』和『事情永遠不會改變』之間的界線 is easy to cross很容易跨過去 and and easy to argue about很容易吵起來。
