Avoiding reference to suffering

Claim

Avoiding reference to suffering is a critical issue that undermines our ability to empathize and address real-world problems. By glossing over pain and hardship, we risk fostering a culture of ignorance and apathy. Acknowledging suffering is essential for compassion, social justice, and meaningful change. It is our moral duty to confront these realities, as only through understanding can we cultivate a society that values healing, support, and genuine progress for all.

Counter-claim

Avoiding reference to suffering is a trivial concern in the grand scheme of human experience. Life inherently includes challenges and hardships, and acknowledging suffering fosters empathy and resilience. Ignoring it only perpetuates ignorance and detachment from reality. Instead of shying away, we should confront suffering head-on, using it as a catalyst for growth and understanding. Focusing on this issue distracts from more pressing societal problems that demand our attention and action.
