The one where progressives start actually engaging with the levers of power by pursuing leadership positions in the Democratic party, consistently putting forward good candidates in the primaries and actually showing up to vote for said candidates.

So what is the plan after they do that then get shut out immediately?

Need ranked voting and money out of politics but neither party will allow that

How about we try actually doing something first instead of immediately declaring defeat?

Because that's been the history of the democratic party and it doesn't matter how much we do until that is addressed.
