It seems like you're angrily describing an ideal that you would be ecstatic to achieve, but have no confidence you could ever reach. Just the fact that you _know_ what is hypocrisy (e.g. imported avocados) is a move in the right direction. Without a sense of the ideal, how could you be pragmatic? I think there will always be a vanguard of humanity that is willing to push towards the ideal -- that drags the rest of us pragmatists kicking and screaming into the future.
