I used to believe this.  Essentially that all life is sorrowful.  So dont try and free yourself from sorrow, just joyfully participate, being the main thesis of buddhism.  I didnt believe in generalized happiness.  But I think I was wrong.  Now I believe a life free from the algorithm is a happy life.  And anyone can achieve it, in 1-2 decades maybe most can.  This was a revelation to me.  A life of abundance may be possible, where we get to enjoy the fruits of our collective labour.  Just remove the algorithm.
