Love your input buddy. Thanks for taking the time to write it on here. Awareness is the first step of a a battle that god knows how long it will take. your reflections made me think of one of the books I’m currently reading.
Sadly the realist or perhaps pessimist in me doesn’t believe we will ever achieve the ideal you’ve depicted. But that doesn’t mean we should give up. My philosophy has been the same for years as I believe it’s the most “ attainable” one. To heal our own souls and become the best human we can possibly be on an inidividual level. Institutions will take forever to change hence why focusing on us (a.k.a on what we have direct control over) is in my opinion the most beneficial and feasible thing we can do to improve the quality of the collectivity, at least to some extent.
