Actually, it is very easy to get into despair, when you see how many evil and injustise is in the world. Sometimes I just want to kill myself. Sometimes I agree with Schopenhauer that life is a pendulum oscillating between boredom and suffering. Btw, I actually have birthday in the same day of year as him. While he was inspired by oriental philosophies, I do not know where his doomerism came from. What I love in ML, besides other things, is that it gives hope to struggle while do not being blind to injustice and poverty.

But a significant majority of that evil and injustice is perpetrated by the bourgoisie, giving weight to the idea that our philosophical outlook has been greatly darkened by capitalism

Yes, and since 80s the world additionally suffers from the sickness called neoliberalism known also under oxymoron name "free market", exactly every country which was forced to such policy or was so stupid to follow it.
