Someone who thinks the ultimate good is the good of humanity.

I guess I am technically speaking a humanist but I don't self-identify as one as I don't like how the emphasis is on specifically humanity instead of conscious beings as a whole.

I'm technically speaking 100% feminist too but I don't self-identify as one due to the misleading stereotypes about what feminism actually is.
