Things have gotten better and progress has been made from times past, it just seems worse now because we have more access to information. We've come far, and have further to go!

The problem is that the line between “we’ve come a long way” and it’s corollary “therefore why are you upset/why do we have to address [insert issue]?” is razor thin.

Celebrating success is great. Using it as a cudgel to stop further success is not.

Yeah definitely. But only thinking of the worst everything all the time is bad for mental health and isn't reflective of reality.
