The sort of thing I tend to doubt. I see no ceiling to the vector of visionariness. Always room for improvement, and at some point you cross the threshold of what the relevant monied interests are willing and/or capable of doing to stop you.

Of course, I would aim for dialectical compliance, striving to foresee their interests before they are even realized.

In any case, I wouldn't want to be up against such forces. Too much friction, and why? Strikes me from the offset as suboptimal. Hence my position of strategic friendliness with the government.

Its less about actually believing the trickledown progressive mythos, and more about appropriating elements and aspects of it, gauging how useful they may be.

Hasn't that already happened?
I mean more either look for an avenue of progress, or don't. Given the philosophy of progress as an end in itself, such overwhelmingly unfeasible goals may be more sustainable, is my current argument.

its illustrative of an inability to imagine. a severely stunted imagination. to the point of mental retardation. in otherwise intelligent specimens

is there only one future you can imagine? literally the only future you can imagine is working in the amazon warehouse for Bezos! really?
That strikes me as unfulfilling and suboptimal, so there would be some need to identify scalable markets of creative occupation.

Do you oppose trying to find better options, or do just you oppose negotiating with capitalism on any basis?
