An outstanding article. Txs.

My favorite part:
"So we return to our initial question: does "genuine" progressivism exist? Thousands of men and women have achieved power and wealth for themselves, subdued "the masses" of many nations, forcibly removed generations of children from their parents' control, turned every traditional moral precept on its head in the name of "social justice," "workers' rights," and "spreading the wealth," and murdered, disarmed, criminalized, or re-educated anyone who stood in their way. They achieved these things by framing them as "progress" on the path to equality, fairness, and rights, but their practical outcomes have been indistinguishable from those of every bloody tyrant in modern history. And they also share a natural enemy in common with history's tyrants, namely all those among "the masses" who wish to pursue their own ends by their own effort, unimpeded by coercive obstruction from other men."

It points very solidly to the fallacy of allowing others to label themselves and then re-define the term to fit their public persona rather than their actions. "I mean(t) to do well."

Very nice article. Makes a great argument and pulls off the mask that progressivism intended to conceal themself with.

Hello Imarrott,
Thank you for bringing this article to us. It is hard to nail down anything concretely with labels when the language is purposely being distorted by those who wish to be King.
One man's progress is another's prison.
