生きづらさビジネスという欺瞞 ― それでもなぜ人は“共感”を求めるのか

In this episode, I question how “life struggles” have become a form of currency in today’s empathy-driven culture. On social media, people turn pain into content and seek validation through shared suffering. But true hardship, I argue, is often silent—it cannot be packaged or sold. I explore how excessive dependence on empathy weakens our ability to think, creating a society that feels deeply but reflects little. Genuine strength lies not in being understood, but in facing loneliness with quiet dignity. “Struggle,” I conclude, is not something to market—it’s something to live with.
