Not to be glib, but this is the nature of "progress" - it changes things. ;)

Well, I genuinely hope you are right.. :)

But note that not everything that we call or called "progress" is necessarily positive. We have made quite a few mistakes before which we thought was progress.

Probably too many to mention, even, but as examples, I can think of the Dark Ages and Nazism.

Mind you, I'm not saying modern liberal politics can be compared to these examples! I don't even known that much about history to be able to comment on them.

It's just food for thought.
