In 2008, I was still laboring under the misconception that society would make adequate progress

I even volunteered for the Obama campaign

A few years later I was part of the Pirate Party Germany, thinking progress can be voted into power.

It was a time of delusions. You were not alone.

And a little bit later I was supporting the campaign of Izquierda Unida and Podemos in Spain. They raised the minimum wage, passed the gender self-determination law and increased some worker protections, despite being a minority within a government in minority. Now the political parties to the left of liberalism are cannibalizing themselves, but that's part of our cultural heritage and must be respected 🚩🚩🚩🏴🏴🏴Also they didn't do anything regarding housing prices, but I'll keep blaming the PSOE for that.
