What do you mean by ‘progress’? There is more than one conceivable type of progress: political, philosophical, technological, scientific, moral, social, etc.
What’s interesting is there is someone else in this thread who believes they are right about something most others are wrong about. ZankerH believes there hasn’t been much political or social progress, and that moral progress doesn’t exist. So, if that’s the sort of progress you are meaning, and also believe that you’re right about this when most others aren’t, then this thread contains some claims that would contradict each other.
Alas, I agree with you that arguing on the Internet is bad, so I’m not encouraging you to debate ZankerH. I’m just noting something I find interesting.
