You define your "Why". You as a human define your life. You can make a choice to do differently, right now. You can go get a different job, hobby, spouse, house, town, friends or whatever. Learn, grow, flourish.

it means humans at this day and age receive information about reality through screens and from authority. Algorithms are making cacophonous boxes, and if you add that we are using different channels, we live in different realities. That destroys something called the social contract, and we lose what unites us- how we should live and is there an objective reality

Oh nice. I like this break down. Okay, you imply all humans across history lived the same way. Please explain when the Japanese and tribes of the Middle East lived the same way. What is the social contract and when was this magical idea implemented in history? When have humans been united? How should humans live? Objective reality? Do you think religious folks and non-religious folks will ever live in harmony? Zealots of any nature?

When Greece was around did all civilizations around the world live the same way? Will the tribal peoples of the Middle East who are at endless religious war ever enter this contract called social? Have they ever been in such a contract? We can peer into Europe, Russia, and Asia and ask the same question. It seems like conquering has defined humanity so far.

I like your salad of words. Lots of concepts are needed to be known, Karl Marx would be impressed.

Yeah, most people don't and won't. I've found philosophers are just looking for meaning in the world as much as religious people look for meaning with their gods. Paralysis through analysis.

My opinion is the only one that matters... But anyway. The last sentence you wrote. Just break that down for me, for what that means to you. "Why" Is that a human being asking the universe "Why"? And expecting an answer other than their own thoughts and ideas in their head? Or how they perceive the world in the time they live in? Do you think all humans have the same lived experiences?
