This is about a very specific example, i.e. going back in time to “do it right this time”, and I can assert with a high degree of certainty that any random “privileged” person leaving our current time would not be up to the task of helping those causes.
Realistically, yes, I don’t think one more person would make a huge difference and change the world any sooner. But calling someone toxic for wanting to try does not feel helpful for anyone.

And I’m done with this. Have a great day.
Notice how I said “idea” and not “person”.
No need to act offended over your misunderstanding. Check your emotions before engaging people in the future.
Take care.
