They've had over 200 years to get it right in America and year after year they move decisively in the direct opposite direction.

Yes. Not murdering many billions in the name of a political ideal.
You don't think things such as the end of slavery, civil rights, woman's rights, homosexual rights, etc. are moves in the right direction?

Wanting to live my life as I see fit is not a "political ideal."
Wiping out billions is no more extreme than billions all rallying around my fence shouting "dont do that!" "you have to do this!" "give me that!" and pressing guns to my head to enforce their wishes.
Like a flower in a field not bothering a soul facing threats of plowing from all directions for committing the cardinal sin of existing.
Those things havent changed one bit.
They've simply been re-branded and marketed to the public in a populist fashion. As long as any body of authority exists there are no rights and we are all slaves.
