    This is a weird take and I’m not really behind it but… people live too god damn long. If society progresses in some way over ~20 years, the fuckers that didn’t want it to are still around and still raising kids to be like them. You begin to think things are a given, then somebody like trump gives these people a voice again and we’re right back.

      Yeah I don’t know what the solution is. Just killing all your ideological opponents probably isn’t it.

      Preventing the concentration of wealth and power and investing heavily in education would probably help

        There is no solution, society changes over lifetimes not years. The question you are asking is how do we change society quicker, but I dont think its possible. It will likely get worse as life expectancy rises, although we may have hit a peak there somewhat.
