I'm not gatekeeping, it's just the definition.
Can you tell me where you got your definition from, and what it is?
Same. Definition you gave, you're just misinterpreting it.
"in relation to the human condition and the meaning of life." Not your life specifically, life in general. The general human condition, not your specific circumstances. It's a pretty common phrase.
Tell me then, what is the general human condition? Is it the experiences of the 'average person'? I hate to break it to you, but this person doesn't exist.
Who are you to decide who is and isn't included in the general human condition?
I mean if you don't understand the concept by now then your way of seeing the world is so fundamentally abnormal that it's not worth the effort for me to find a specific combination of words that makes you understand it. You seem to lack the understanding of what a forest is, you only see a specific number of trees, or a statistical average of each and every one of those trees. You can't conceptualize something generally applicable to all people
I'm not asking you because I don't understand it, I'm asking you because I don't think you understand it lol.
