Hmm. There have been leaders in the past; ones with visions for a better world... but the people weren't ready. They were satisfied as they were and rejected those visions. Convinced they were right, those leaders kept moving forward... and earned the ire of the people they set out to help.
Their castles were destroyed, their towers burned, and many of those leaders died... and though history reveals the right course over time, it means nothing to those who must live in the moment.
(A vague history lesson,)
What we believe and what we do can only be selfish until others agree, too.
