Yeah, that's the real problem. I don't think she does it to be kind to people, she does it to prove herself right and push her views on other people.

I still like her as a character, but it makes sense why other characters would be irritated by her as much as they'd be irritated by, say, Shirley preaching her religion. (Actually, sometimes Shirley seems more willing to listen to others than Britta is...)

This, SFM. And one of the reasons I dislike her so much is because in this regard she is so much like the typically PC people in fandom, who also often seem more interested in making themselves look good (tolerant, open-minded, concerned about others) than in actually helping other people. And since these people piss me off in fandom, someone like Britta also pisses me off on screen.

there's been several plotlines though where it's shown that she actually does have a sincere desire to be a good person

"I don't think she does it to be kind to people, she does it to prove herself right and push her views on other people."

She does enjoy being right and thinking of herself as openminded. Hell, who doesn't? Yes, it motivates some of her actions.
As for pushing her views on other people, wow, if she thinks something is wrong and she cares about it, of course she'd want other people to think so too, you know, like any other human on the planet.

I don't think those are her primary motives for what she does. I think it's been shown that she does genuinely care about people and the various issues she talks about. For example, she seemed genuinely shaken up by the gnom's? (Abad's oppressed character) situation in the D&D game they played (yes, even that example was making fun of her a bit, but the point was that she can't help caring about everything, even when she knows it's stupid/nonsensical/whatever).
