One of the most common examples of progress that is not always good is technological progress. Advances in technology often come with their own set of negative consequences, such as increased pollution, environmental destruction, and unregulated use of powerful weapons. In fact, some of the most devastating wars in human history have been fought in the name of progress, such as as a result of colonialism, imperialism, and colonization. However, progress can also be seen as beneficial. For example, advances in medical technology have greatly reduced death rates from previously deadly diseases, such as smallpox, polio, and malaria. Progress has also spawned developments in society that have enabled people to live more comfortable and productive lives. Progress can sometimes be good, but progress is not always good.

Their voices were ignored, and they felt powerless against a society that was advancing without them. Progress can be bad, but progress is always good.
