By now it should be apparent that you alone in this thread see the world as you do. We all see things we don't like but because we are ordinary, mortal folk, we don't see the need to change the world. We make decisions and act to deal with life's follies and faults that directly affect us as best we can and hope that others do the same. For the really big issues, well, that's what we pay politicians and defence personnel to deal with.
The greatest minds and achievers in history recognised many things that needed to change but they set themselves the goal of addressing the issues they knew they could. None of them wanted to change the world. Perhaps none if them saw that the whole world needed changing as you do.
The scepticism you have encountered from me and others here is because, although you are lucid and clearly intelligent, as I mentioned before, something is seriously wrong with an individual who sees so much wrong, so little right about today's world and claims that such drastic and utterly improbable solutions as changing mankind's mindset is required to rectify those problems, has a problem within themselves.
Hyde Park in London and the Sydney Domain in years gone by had Speakers Corners, where people could stand on soapboxes and speak to whomever listened. About Doomsday, Christ reappearing or whatever floated their boat. Your oratory in this thread seems to be of that ilk.
