Not sure if you were being facetious, but people who really believe they can "fix" the human condition are dangerous as fuck
You still use a straw? Off with your head!
Worse are the clowns in big tech who think they could optimize systems to make human frailties irrelevant. Those people are Dr. Frankensteins and don't realize it.
As for straws, yeah... I still get weird stares when I tell people plastic isn't the universal enemy and that it actually saves us from greater environmental plundering in some cases.

Following Gordo's lead, I've whispered sweet nothings of, "Vous avez une poutine chaude".
It didn't work. I got slapped.
I think it’s fine for wanting to work towards making the world a better place, and people have various ideas (some good, some not so good) on how to go about this.
But the twits in organizations like PETA and WWF that believe the entire population becoming strict vegan is absolutely necessary to fix the world/human condition are ridiculous and becoming more and more dangerous in this digital era, with it being so easy for misinformation to be spread.
It's good to have directions to head towards. But what we don't need is everybody micromanaging how each other gets there.
My other criticism about the whole population going strict vegan is just another form of widening the freeways so you can create worse traffic jams. Which leads to the next point...
It's really really simple, stop having kids
Absolutely the most impactful thing any one human can do to the problem. But they pussy out on that one.
