US Democrats could have done this a decade ago. They could have codified abortion rights. They could have made so many things a priority: they choose not to. I owe nothing to a failed approach to politics.
I must correct you there. There is a theory that says that politics has to fulfill the will of its average voter. It can not lean further left than that. Otherwise it looses voters on the righter side.
Society is like a big vehicle. It takes time to change its course. Calm down.
As the saying goes, there’s only two hard problems in IT:
Caching, naming things, and off by one errors.
