Compared to our potential. Time and time again I see we will never achieve it fully. And it's not helping our social structures does not reward certain actions compared to short sighted unfiltered goals.
I think there is objective reality but we lack the tools to interact with it in it's complete form because it wasn't really useful for our survival within our evolutionary process. An interface of simplified perception was way more energy efficient to stay alive and still achieved the purpose of reproduction. This interface called body has enough senses to ask the right questions and look for answers up to certain point but at the same time is not satisfying if you gathered enough independently tested scientific knowledge.
I'm sorry I couldn't write a lot as I am at my phone, I will try to explain better when I get to my pc. I will try to do my best to understand your position that triggered a reaction by my words.

I don't think we interact with reality in its pure form at all so talking about free will and randomness is whole another debate. Although you are aggressive with your assumptions about me I don't think what I wrote was psychological reaction. All I am saying is we are not content without objective purpose en masse and that causes issues.
Humans in my humble estimation including me inherently weak because they had to be ignorant in some things to survive this long.

Oh poor humans. The innate need to chase a kind of meaning where one is identified as something bigger than life. Because something must be different because we were here right? We must matter!
News flash, we don't. But it doesn't have to mean despair and follow a feeling of defeat. Just try to be immortal with the memories and pieces you leave behind. But it will never be enough for some, that I can see as well.
