What does that even mean? Define "social progress"; it's loose terminology.
It's not neighbours spying on neighbours. It's neighbours advocating for what they believe is right. That is the democratic process. Sometimes, that's what is needed. If someone didn't voice their opinion about slavery, we would not have had slavery abolished.
Society reacts from events (for example, Rosa Parks) and proceeds in some fashion. There is nothing wrong with pointing out what you or I think is wrong- hell, I bet a lot of people thought Rosa Parks was wrong, and some believed she was right. Society changes based on a variety of factors, including differing social opinions.
