There is nothing inherent in the human organism which makes suffering natural or necessary; it's only the babbling believed narratives in our minds that generate suffering. The same is true of our susceptibility to mass media manipulation.

This is a strange claim. Suffering is the fundamental condition of life, as so well espoused by the Buddha, from a tradition which your words in general take great inspiration. Life is not easy, on any level, and the friction of that unease we call suffering.

It's true that by our actions we can either relieve or increase the suffering of ourselves and others, to look at it from one perspective. Our understanding of the world, what you call "narratives", can greatly contribute to what we do, what we expect and how we interpret events.

I would like to see a real argument why you don't think suffering is natural or necessary, especially on an organism level since you bring it up in that context.
