Progressives are not against change when it impacts them. That is once again a conservative.
Progressives are the ones who fought to legalize weed. Why would someone fight to legalize and then call the cops on someone because they are black!?
I am not the one who thinks everyone is the same. I see the difference between action and inaction. Progressives change things for the better through observation, intervention, and evaluation.
A progressive doesn’t want to just lock up a pedophile, they want them treated. They want to stop the cycle not just imprison them.
You can claim to be Jesus fucking Christ when you molest a child, that doesn’t make it true. I find your example rather distasteful.
Most child molesters are conservative and heterosexual. If a child molester is for making things better through change they are bad because they are a child molesters, not because they want to make things better.
The fact that you try to paint progressives as child molesters just supports that you are clueless and grasping at straws at this point.
No, conservatives want things to stay the same. They like hierarchical rigid societal structures.
I suppose you could consider yourself to be progressive on marijuana and conservative on on immigration issues. Unless you are a progressive on all issues you are not really a progressive though. You would be a conservative that is okay with weed.
I don’t police other people’s politics. I mostly am interested in what they do and how they vote. Words are cheap, and policing other people is fucking weird and egotistical no matter if it’s done by progressives or conservatives. And they both seem to LOVE telling other people how to live their lives and how wrong and horrible they are for not agreeing with the hypocritical nonsense they spout they don’t practice themselves.
I voted for weed legalization, but i don’t smoke. I am against public weed smoking because it’s gross like public cigarette smoking. But I don’t care if people smoke in their car and homes. I also vote for candidates that want immigration reform, but I am not for open borders and i think immigration should be reasonable restricted and borders should be enforced. But I also have felt that way about immigration for 20 years and I don’t grand stand about it just because of what is going on with ICE abuses currently. ICE should be doing their job quietly like they did under Obama, while reasonable reforms would include paths to residency, but not whole sale amnesty for all existing residents. I also have known several immigrants and many of them are deeply anti-immigrant and are 100% on board with what Trump/ICE is doing, they aren’t a liberal progressive monolith, and liberal leftist views about immigrants and immigration tend to be vastly oversimplified and condescending. Also, most immigrants are conservative, not liberal. So if you want open immigration… those immigrants are often the ones will will vote against your your side. That’s kind of ironic, isn’t it?
I also notice people who claim they are against ‘rigid structures’ at the ones who happen to adhere to them in their personal lives. Like poly people, who claim they are alternative and anti hierarchy but always almost always have a massive and rigid power differential in their relationship structures. It’s almost as if they bullshit phrases like that to cover up their hypocrisy of their practices. A lot like Trump.

So is everyone who is progressive now conservative?
Or it’s only on certain issues. If I’m for weed, but against immigration, am I progressive or conservative?
