Progressives always win in the long run. The more years you look at in history, the clearer that becomes. The slowness and the backslides are often excruciating though.
Sure, but look at Germany (where I'm from) the Nazis really threw the social and cultural development back for several decades to come. And created the basis for a conservative narrow mindset that is very present today. I realize that our current government is probably one of the most progressive I will ever experience in my life and that is pretty depressing because my ideas for a better society are hardly supported by their politics.
I’m so tired. I just don’t have the energy to fight any more, there doesn’t seem to be any point. At this point I’m probably just going to hold out until some NATO-esque entity invades/occupies us and sets us straight again.
