Alienation in Existentialist Thought

Quick fact

Existentialist alienation is not about social estrangement, but a deeper metaphysical disconnect: we are alienated from the world because we are free, while objects simply are what they are.

You've likely felt like a stranger in your own life—going through the motions, yet somehow disconnected. What if that feeling is not a glitch but the very core of what it means to be human?
