I think with "very much not a progressive utopia", GP was particularly referring to the "utopia" part of the argument. I don't think anyone is denying that SF is progressive, especially for US standards. But it's also just badly run, and there's plenty evidence across the world that "progressive" doesn't need to imply "badly run".
