Considering all the technological advances humanity has made in the last 50 years, has humanity evolved in terms of civilization, stagnated, or regressed?

All we have is technological advances. As a civilization I would argue that we have made no progress, and we simply repeat histories of feast/famine, war/peace, justice/injustice because we are stupid animals.
One would think after approximately 6000 years of documented history we would have worked the bugs out of this whole "civilization" thing if we were truly intelligent or making progress.

I'd say tech has evolved but I'd say civilisation has stayed the same. as a species we still can't treat our fellow human beings right because they have a different skin colour so

Not quite true, I think. Thanks to education, literacy, better nutrition, we have been nearing the level where the old ways are nowheres -nearly- as crude, unthinking and hurtful as they were for 5900 of those years. All the scamming has been laid out for everyone to see. And now, we get to choose.

You believe at about 1925 we shifted from "crude, unthinking, and hurtful" old ways and have made substantial progress in the last 100 years away from excessive resource consumption, constant war, and constant injustice for the majority of people living in the world today?

While our handlers have continued in their ways, much of the great mass of humanity has moved (and history shows it, if you're familiar with it all) into a much better place. Tens of millions died across Europe in the '20-40s ... not repeated since WW2 and the A-bomb. The current admin notwithstanding, *humanity itself has shifted away from the bastards ... and they know it ... and they'll soon (not soon enough) be dead.

That is because technology, not because people are better than they were 2000 years ago.
Who are "our handlers"?

Society can do nothing but evolve. The world has changed and society has changed with the aspects best able to continue in the modern world being those thar continued.
Is society better off or not is a good question.
