We all see the problem. Ranked choice voting is only barely in the public consciousness, we're still at least two decades away from realistically being able to challenge the two-party system the way things are going.
When I first started advocating for it 24ish years ago (guess why), practically nobody had heard of it. Now most liberals seem to know what it is. And I think that's a very important nearly-final step, because now every congressman does know what it is. The logic is obvious; it's all a matter of honest awareness and dishonest BS.
The hard part will be getting people to admit to themselves that they've been manipulated by de facto conservative Democrats for years.
