Progress hasn't happened, the general population has lost ground especially since your generation started voting almost 40 years ago. At least then there were still 3 parties at debates, now because of people like you we have less of a chance of anything actually progressing towards a better future. And clearly you haven't been paying attention in recent years either, between the massive civil unrest with racial injustice and then at almost the same time a major almost insurrection and coup from the opposite side means we are about to face civil war due to the entrenched division created by the two parties of identity politics you all have voted for and want.
