>suffering bad
>but also I want to inflict suffering on others who have been led astray
>racism bad
>but also I want to racially discriminate against white people for not being "diverse", my narcissism makes me see "microaggressions" everywhere, therefore I am an oppressed victim entitled to oppress and victimize others in a real tangible way via law, institutions and sometimes mob violence like BLM "protests"
>sexism bad
>ditto except for men
>gender roles bad
>but also I want to hack my cock off, conform to female gender roles and intimidate anyone who does not pretend I am a real woman
>freedom bad
>but also I want to prevent people looking at race and IQ, race and crime or ask "what is a woman", free speech does not mean freedom from consequences ie. me throwing a massive screeching tantrum
This is the psychological and philosophical root of the German, a kind of pride, a break from God. They gladly scold others yet when their own obligations come they snap and reveal they never took their supposed values to heart. And of course as atheists, why would they? As awful as suffering can be, it is perhaps necessary if we are to share the world with Germany, the birthplace of Karl Marx.

this reality is most probably a simulation of an intelligent creator(s) for either fun/experiments by setting up some initial parameters and speeding up that world to see where it goes, a more advanced conways game of life, if you will. that is the best fit.

pleasure and suffering are the same thing. that's what the Buddha figured. they are the same, but separated by time. so, if you seek pleasure, you seek suffering. that's why the Buddha presented this to his disciples: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noble_Eightfold_Path

You're asking for a reason, for what reason is there suffering. None, suffering wasn't manifactured to fulfill any set function.
Suffering is derived from our ability to feel pain as an information, what allows us to better self-preserve by avoiding painful experiences.
When our body is too damaged or our mental stability is compromised, we enter a state of constant pain you call suffering. Our body and mind feel threatened but cannot deal with the cause in any impactful way and is set to endure.
Any severe injury? It means life or death, your scream will alert others that may do something to help, the damages are too severe for natural healing to fix it on its own. You may be losing more blood that you could replace on your own. Your immune system won't be able to protect you from foreign agents and you will succumb to it.
You are set on surviving yet you are unable to. Your body won't shut down without a struggle even if it's vain.
The same goes for mental and psychological suffering. We as social animals depend on our ability to find a place within a social group in order to survive and thrive. Any comprise can be percieved as life threatening, rightfully or not.
The death of a loved one we deeply cared for gives us painful empathy. We tend to emotionally rely on others so when the connection is servered it feels like an amputation. It's especially true for a lover or children which we are prone to percieve as other halves due to their role in passing on our genes even if we are not conscious of the latter part that is how we are genetically wired to respond. We as social animals are prone to form deeper bonds. We may even treat our home and things we built as extensions and part of us leading to the same kind of response upon loss.
The build up of stress leads to anxiety, confusion and hysteria. It leads us to self-harm or such unreasonable actions by hindering our ability to think straight and reason our way out of a situation.

We may seem fragile, easily overwhelmed, but that is not exactly the case.
We are capable of enduring more than we think we are. What we usually lack are diligence and confidence which are to be gained through experiences. But in our overlly sheltered life any set back feels like the end. Any bump feels like a wall. We are shielded from loss unable to comprehend it when it suddenly happens. We feed ourselves delusions instead of facing reality. We grew soft and dull, unprepared when facing harshness and so it hurts more.
It is becoming more and complicated to escape that mold. Modern luxuries may extend our reach and capabilities but they also poisoning us making us *less* than they do more, we did not have time to adapt to the radical changes they brought.
It's up to us to change our response to suffering or consider its cause and ask ourselves what going through this pain means for us. Pain isn't inheritly bad and sometimes sacrifices are beneficial if what is to be gain is worth it. You may voluntarily go through pain and call it passion.
Loss is inevitable, time erodes, life degrades, objects get used up. We consume. Loss on one side is a gain on another. What exchange there was. What we gained from what we have lost, if there is something left to cherish and nuture.
Life goes on despite loss and death, it grows and thrives. Despite feeling pain it feels joy. From suffering to bliss. We move forward till we can no longer.
