The worry is that we might be preaching a kind of acquiescence and complacency by asking people to treat a man-made condition as an ontological condition of existence. But the fact that we are doomed to be anxious in an existential sense should lead us to demand that our material conditions not aggravate the basic anxieties that we already have. This calls for an active engagement with the world. A creature that is bound to be anxious as a condition of its existence should be especially interested in ordering a world that does not make it more anxious than it needs to be.
