I'm not sure you understand what a doomer is. Doomers (as a meme) are people who are incredibly cynical and jaded; who believe that we as a species are fucked, and any attempt to stop it is like an antelope thrashing in the mouth of a lion. This idea isn't inherently right-wing or left-wing, nor is it specific to any particular country (though it's probably more common in the left-wing western anglo-sphere). It's the idea that while it technically might not be too late to reverse course and solve things like wealth inequality, climate change, police brutality, fascism, etc; the fact that the people who benefit from these things are also the ones in power means it'll never happen. It'll always be 90% words, 10% action until it truly is too late; at which point they'll declare that they tried as hard as they could and there's nothing else to be done.
The people you're describing aren't actually doomers, they're just concern trolls.
Doomers and concern trolls.
