Some Buddhists would argue life is suffering and that just do but lessen suffering to you and others as doing.
That in itself, as simple as that can sound, is easier said than done. Which is why calling out the pressure/negativity can help a situation grow out of the stagnation that has occured for unnecessary reasons into a positive one that can enrich all parties involved.
But sometimes suffering is suffering and accepting a situation as just what it is and become more accepting of it can help avoid adding furthering suffering to it.
