In relation to threads such as this one, and the battle between progressives and ”the rest, ” I’m left with the question: how do you identify a new normal?
Are the posters who espouse views that suggest things were better ”before” in some way or other simply unable to cross the chasm? Has the paradigm shifted on them, and will ”progressive” today seem like ”always” tomorrow?

I thought about this and yes things are always improving. However, for something new to become the normal probably 1000 similar things failed.
Like why did the VHS win over Beta? or a DVD win over the Laserdisk.
Everything new was thought by someone as a stupid idea. Just look at resistance to change in your own workplace. Many hours and money spent on meetings to fight for good ideas.
