If one's ideology insists true progress can only be made all-or-nothing style with revolution, what to do?

Just revise history, pretend FDR and LBJ were democratic socialists and the only way to make progress (Medicare for All or nothing) again is to get rid of those yucky capitalist liberal Democrats who are doing government the best they can while Republicans try to destroy it.

Obama and Biden getting important progressive legislature passed in the two years they had small majorities, 50-50 senate, Liebermans (Thank you, Harry Reid) and Manchins (Thank you, Chuck Schumer)? Progressive successes of blue states? Keep saying the system is broken, doesn't work, can't work, everyone's corrupt, rigged, all is lost, and accuse Democrats of "taking" bad money in every sentence.
