Has philosophy ever given us any positive ideas? Every "revelation" seems to be cynical and detrimental to the health of society.

Really? Have you even analyzed the first idea you singled out at all? Instead of looking at it pessimistically, why not optimistically. To hold your hand, Mr. Philosophiser, you can take this from said line:
>Don't try to enjoy your presence in the world. Instead, enjoy your presence and enjoy the world.
Or are you just going to keep waiting for others to think your experience for you?

There is literally nothing you can say that will change the world unless it inspires action.

Nothing can change from words and if they make you sad you're probably doing it on purpose for attention or because you like the broody image you associate with those moods.
Fuck you.
Don't be a pussy.
