Buddhism is internally inconsistent and a retarded religion. Why would it be good to extinguish desire for justice, peace, love etc? It is the epitome of pseudo intellectual fake deep nonsense that breaks down by even slightly thinking about it
You don't extinguish the self or desire for the sake of the world but for your self.
True Buddhism is about personal enlightenment, you have guiding moral principals about doing no harm but fundamentally, Buddhism is about accepting you have no complete control over the state of the world and its future, but do have complete control over yourself.
If anything it's about mastering yourself. What you're talking about seems like some western variation of it where liberals turn it into some exotic replacement for Christianity.
