Incrementalism does not work, incrementalism results in incremental fascism.
In 1984, James Baldwin said
What is it you wanted me to reconcile myself to? I was born here almost 60 years ago, I’m not gonna live another 60 years.
You always told me it takes time.
It’s taken my father’s time, my mother’s time. My uncle’s time. My brother’s and my sister’s time. My nieces’ and my nephews’ time.
How much time do you want? For your progress.
He apparently had been hearing that it takes time, progress takes time, all of his life. Incrementalism is something that liberals tell themselves is the only path forward because they know that they have no plans for actual progress forward.
