Pardon my stupidity, but I have a hard time noticing the difference between the two hashtags the way you put it. Could you explain it to me?
Probably my own fault for being bad at explaining. How I see it, thehumancondition is almost analytical or scientific. It examines how humans work - or talks about how humans have been affected by this thing or that. It is, it a way, searching for answers, investigating humans. humanity, however is a little different. It isn't analytical nor investigative, it simply anecdotally shares stories about human beings. This could be anything, from an image of a soldier dodging gunfire to rescue a friend, to a child playing with a new-found friend despite not even sharing a language. If it captures the essence of being humans - in a word; humanity - then that tag would be more appropriate.
When you put it this way, it makes sense. The sterility of the word that I've felt - it comes not from dry attention but from the necessarily dry scientific point of view - understandibly so. Thank you for changing my view. It took a lot of internal wrestling to take it, but I'm glad I was able to listen so you and change my mind on the subject.
