In general I think most people trying to intervene on most other people's behavior are doing it at much too low a level (in the sense of low-level programming languages).

Example?
Simple example is yelling at people to recycle more or be less sexist or w/e. IMO this has clearly stopped working, if it ever did. But also things like telling people to be kinder or meditate more. Actions are generated by deeper dynamics, need to intervene on those if at all.

In my own personal growth experience most major changes to my own behavior came from tweaking much deeper things like how fundamentally safe / loved / cared for I feel, training emotional processing / regulation, etc. Not by e.g. exerting willpower to do different stuff.

I guess it's much easier in the moment or simpler to convey "stop doing that particular behaviour".
