    Default Lat's stop calling them progressives and liberals.

    There is nothing "progressive" or "liberal" about todays Marxist leaning leftists. Let's start calling them what they are; regressive.

    Let's not call them liberals. There is nothing liberal about their anti-Constitutional, anti-American hatred for liberty. They are leftists. Regressive leftists.

    I guess when you are stupid you think you can redefine words however you want.

    Should we start calling you Humpty Dumpty instead of poopiehead?

    Well, Progressive came about because Liberal became a slur. That's just how the Left rolls. They grab onto something, fuck it totally up, then move on. Here, they were calling themselves "liberals" and that became a pejorative. So, they moved to "progressive" to get away from being labeled something negative (liberal). Now progressive has the same connotations that liberal has, and they're going to have to find a new term to use for labeling themselves because of the same negatives attached to being progressive.

    You can stop getting yourself worked up over 'Marxists'. There are no Marxists left. Russia, China, the 'Eastern bloc' nations are all Capitalists.

    The Constitution calls for Elections. One Party has found that to be annoying. They want a Putin style Dictator.

    I call them Democrats. These fascists and communists have become especially brazen lately.

    Democrats call themselves 'progressive'. I never use that label, because it's the last thing they are. It is Democrats that redefine words all the time.

    Inversion fallacy. 'Progressive' is a word redefined by Democrats. It's the last thing they are. They are regressive. They discard the Constitution of the United States and all State constitutions. They want oligarchy. They want fascism. They want communism. Yes...that includes you.

    I use it because they use it, and like the word 'liberal' I try to turn it into a pejorative that creates a negative impression when someone reads or hears it. You're a Progressive? (Gasp!) Why would you want to be such an angry, loser, scumbag like that?

    Lie. Marxism is alive and well in all of the nations mentioned, and in every nation.
    Socialism is not a nation. Capitalism is not a nation.

    The Democrats want an oligarchy. They have implemented them in the SOTC, the SOTNY, and in the former federal government. Democrats discard the Constitution of the United States.

    Democrats found free elections to be annoying. They committed election fraud so thoroughly in the 2020 election that the election faulted. They installed Biden as Supreme Puppet (which Putin initially supported, but now no longer does).
