The US has the most Conservative/Right Wing society of any other first world nation.It also has the most crime,poverty,incarceration,wealth inequality,police spending,gun violence,most with no healthcare etc.Coincidence? I think not
While there is Progressive activism in The US,there is little actual Progressivism(compare The US to Nordic countries if you disagree). Therefore there is little to no Progressivism to stamp out.
You cherry pick one or two things instead of actually reviewing all the factors. Your analysis is singularly useless. The fact of the matter is that The US Government as a whole has been Progressive for the better part of 100 years and when we condone the one parent family and subsidize it, we reap what we sow.
Crime,poverty,incarceration,wealth inequality,police spending,gun violence,most with no healthcare etc compared to actual progressive societies is not cherry picking.The US Government as a whole is the least progressive of any first world nation by far.
