Okay, I can understand your opinion. My question to you is then, how do we reverse or break this cycle? Asking earnestly.
Does the US just have to wait for a golden goose like an American Greta Thunberg who checks every box for you? Since painting every good thing with the brush of bad things doesn’t appear to inspire anyone to improve. And if your answer is there is nothing that can be done about it, then what’s the problem with at least trying to slow it down, by shaming bad things and cheering good ones?

No, ceding to the greater evil because the lesser evil isn’t good enough is a race to the bottom. Lesser evilism is a gentle stroll to the bottom.
It’s easier to slow that gentle stroll to a stop, and subsequently turn around and head back up, than it is to slow down from a sprint.
Vote strategically to secure the best conditions the Overton window will allow, and use that period of deceleration to make a difference through direct action. Progressive change is easier to accomplish under mealy-mouthed liberals than under full-throated fascists.

Big talk abt lesser evil when the dems are more likely to suck up time and energy from ur parents only to funnel that money into a “based Republican” in a race where they lost so badly it’s red versus red
