It is not entirely cyclical. We always have these one-step-back phases of the old guard clinging to power, then we make big steps forward again. Black people are not slaves anymore, women can vote, gays can marry, weed is mostly legal, etc. It takes longer than anyone wants it to, but we always get upgrades that stick in the progress phases of the cycle. This time the steps backwards are bigger than usual, so in 3 years there will be a lot more will to take even bigger steps forwards and progressives need to be ready to move fast when it is their turn again. Mamdani is a preview. |
