One thing I like about cold-blooded Camus/Sartrean existentialism is, we're fucked up, broken creatures, so when we do occasionally get the best work out of ourselves, or even experience true empathy, it's a miracle. When you say you feel it too often it stops being true. Extend that to a whole culture where you have to say it all the time, and everyone's just a liar.
