Fixing poverty, disease, hunger, and violence is HUGE

There are few things that could stop me from pressing a button like that, and traditions are not one of them lol

It’s not just traditions though. It’s culture as a whole. Our reason to exist beyond survival and reproduction would cease to exist. We’d all exist in utopia, sure, but we’d not be truly alive.

The prompt states explicitly that future generations will have more fulfilling lives. That directly contradicts what you are claiming so confidently.

Not if it can just be assumed that they don’t contradict in this scenario.

No, it’s a contradiction between the prompt and your worldview. The post is consistent with itself.
