negativist
💡 Explanation:
A pessimist is someone who consistently expects negative outcomes or focuses on the worst aspects of situations. 'Negativist' directly captures this meaning of someone with a negative outlook. 'Villainous' means evil or wicked, not pessimistic. 'Coward' refers to lack of courage, which is different from pessimism. 'Macho' refers to aggressive masculinity, unrelated to pessimism.
