Is progress a myth? Many people believe in it and would sacrifice anything for the name of progress.
In the sense that progress is an intangible ideal like God? I guess so. You have to prove that it's not an ideal that's sacrificing for, though.
No one believe in just 'progress' as an idea. They believe in ideas of progression towards the betterment of society in their view. They don't fetishize the concept of progress itself, but their own opinion on what progress means.

>Many people
Who?
Most people are lazy or hedonistic. They might think progress is neat, but they would never have much motivation to actually contribute to it.
Technological progress is true.
Human progress is very rarely true, because anything we do to our societies or otherwise, can be undone with 1 nuclear weapon.

Progress is just the dialectical anti-meme of degeneracy

That would be incredibly strange if truly nothing ever progressed or regressed AT ALL in the long term
So strange that one might accuse another of talking out his ass for suggesting such a thing
