Welcome to life in hell. You can get defensive and self-righteous when people point out the mass hypocrisy and delusion and error in all our lives, but it doesn't change the truth that we are all living in an awful state, as cowards and lapdogs of the hyper-capitalist system that gives us life today, even as it guarantees death in the future.

A whole society of people who've sold out every heroic ideal humans have ever conceived
Which again sounds like nice and tasty demagoguery, but isn't true. We continually progress and improve on civil rights, for example.
