I'm sorry to hear that you feel that way.

Is it possible that you've gotten fixated on ways in which a role could make things worse, without also noticing ways in which it could make things better? It seems to me that when choosing a career, you should account for both costs and benefits.

One idea is to try & identify a job that does as little harm as possible, then live frugally and donate excess earnings to a charity you believe is making a positive impact.
