My point is that there is no way to viably change the status quo - the merits of doing so are irrelevant. We should accept this and not spend our time trying to change others, or wishing they were different, but rather channel our own energies into things constructive for our own time on this earth.
To say that there is no way is rather arbitary. If people have always seeked to maximise happiness etc., then the status quo can't be solely the result of that
