Looking around me:

I started seeing people who support capitalist companies instead of non-profits.
People losing their freedoms everywhere at high pace.
No one is taking any serious steps to stop climate change.
A lot of non-profits had seriously down scaled their operations in the last 5 years, most probably more non-profits will get hit hard this year.
On a relative scale, no one is fighting to change any of this.

Do we have any hope?

People only really change when it hurts so much they are forced to. It needs to get much worse to reach that breakpoint and critical mass. (Some reach it sooner than others ) But when it does, we need to be ready with the most logical and attractive solution to avoid them choosing fascism or other extremes. Left ideology needs better marketing, why not sell that utopian vision we hope to achieve.
