I'm not sure in the moment we looked that great either.
Whether it was Cold war in the 70s/80s, Jim Crow in the 60s, racism in the 50s, child labor in the 20s/30s, and so on and so forth.
The gay rights movement which was one of the most successful, did not look successful in the 1990s and 2000s.
Things look better when we look back. Even with W Bush we can look at the intervention of preventing the HIV pandemic in Africa.
