Someone who wants to live a life of luxury and comfort in a world with wastewater treatment plants, knowing that everyone else is also pitching in and doing their part.

Someone who wants to live in a world without billionaire pedophiles in power doing nothing but hoarding all of the wealth and abusing women and children.

Someone who cares about the wellbeing of their community and is motivated by that, rather than by selfish greed.

In other words, anyone. Everyone.

This is idealistic to the point of parody.

These are all real things. A better world is possible. It is easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism, but remember that incredible changes that would have seemed impossible have happened before and will happen again.

If you told a pioneer in the Virginia company back in 1607 that black women would be given rights and the abililty to vote to elect their leaders, they'd probably burn you as a witch.

Everyone can't do everything, and some specialized jobs with specialized skills are extremely unpleasant. Are you suggesting that we just hope things get done, or that we force people to do it while giving nothing in return.

One is delusional - the other is just slavery.

I'm suggesting that we can come up with a better system than the current one we have. I have ideas for how we could do that, and if you're interested you can check out an anarchist FAQ for a wide variety of ideas, but I don't have all the answers, no one does. We can only reach a system which works for everyone by first acknowledging our current system is deeply flawed, then coming together to work to build a better alternative.
