Jesus is not restoring anything while the devil is having a heyday. This is an EITHER/OR proposition. When Christ will take control, the devil will be in Hell (or the bottomless pit prior to to that). And all evildoers will be out of the picture. So there is no need to make a mishmash out of Bible truth. The apostle John said that "the whole world lieth in wickedness" and that has only grown worse (unless you have your head in the sand).

Do women suffer more or less during childbirth? Do men sweat more or less as they work? Are more people saved today than ever before? Is the church being added to daily?
Satan was cast out of heaven shortly before the cross. Jesus said He would build His church and the gates of hell would be unable to stop it.
Perhaps governments are more wicked, maybe not. Maybe improvements in communication just make it appear so. But Satan isn't winning anything that doesn't serve God's purposes. You are free to live defeated. I'm not going to.

1) Where he is reigning over the kings of the earth (politicians, billionaire elites, entertainment moguls, entertainment stars, false religious leaders) with his fallen angels. Here he is on display, licking up the dust of the earth. You can use superbowl halftime shows as a scale to find out how far society has fallen. And society is in the dregs, begging for God's wrath IMO. Similar to Canaan at the time of Joshua (which was a type in microcosm of the Lord returning to wage war at the time of the Second Coming BTW)

In terms of society advancing to ever greater righteousness, things are NOT "getting better" out there.

So what do you make of this "coming Kingdom" business? IMO, your eschatological outlook needs a total overhaul. Your Kingdom model is wildly at variance with that so described biblically.

Yes. Easy answer.
We and the creation are "waiting" "until" "the end", when "they shall see" Jesus as King "coming in the clouds" "in that day" to wage war, defeating the armies of the beast who come against Israel, then to regather His brethren "the second time", whereupon He will "sit upon the throne of His glory" so located in the Temple in Jerusalem.

And where exactly do you fit this verse into your pseudo-Yurga long-ages infinitesimal gradualism model?
2Pe 3:10
But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.

But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
44 And in the days of these kings the God of heaven will set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed; and the kingdom shall not be left to other people; it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand forever. 45 Inasmuch as you saw that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the bronze, the clay, the silver, and the gold—the great God has made known to the king what will come to pass after this. The dream is certain, and its interpretation is sure.”
Ball is in your court friend. If you think you can dispute my last few posts.....have at it.
BTW....what you utterly fail to understand is that very much of these OT prophecies have been RIGHTLY INTERPRETED by the commentary of the New Testament writers. We all know to a VERY high degree of confidence (which you lack BTW) the right meaning of what Daniel wrote so long ago.
You are stuck in a ditch. Everyone is throwing you a tow-line. I suggest you take them and right yourself.
Lingering like a revenant in this new age pseudo-evolutionary phantasm world of your own making is the worst thing you could do.
Especially given the dire nature of these last days, so ripe for judgement.

No, it says during the empire of Iron and clay.. The 4th empire was the empire of Iron..
The rock hits the empire of Iron and clay, and in it, All the other empires crumble
again, If you think it is past. when did it happen? When was a kingdom of ten kings who followed the 1 king which resembled the roman empire destroyed in history?
