There is whole bodies of data for progressive uses of crypto. Donating to NGOs is the very first one that comes to mind, but there are definitely others.

Crypto is Non-partisan, just like shoes or a hammer. Anybody can use them for whatever they want.

So you're saying that it's progressive to use bitcoin as ... money?

They're saying it's neither progressive nor conservative, it's just a tool that you can use.
