Do you think it's sad when strangers try to get validation from other strangers to feel accepted?

i dont understand that either, im not a fan of humanity in general but why do people need so much validation from complete strangers. do we have such a society where we lost all self meaning and self pride or love of ourselves that we have to chase after meaningless things.

And especially when it's repeated over and over.

I need validation for self confidence.

I think there are much sadder things.
