Pete doesn't seem to understand what the foundation of political Progressivism is. Perhaps, he is enamored of the name itself. Progress is good . . . right? If your name is Progressive, you must be good . . . your name says so. Just like ANTIFA. Anti-Fascist. With that name, you've got to be good.

“Fascism is a religion of the state. It assumes the organic unity of the body politic and longs for a national leader attuned to the will of the people. I am The Chosen One
It is totalitarian in that it views everything as political and holds that any action by the state is justified to achieve that common good.
Lafayette Square cleared of protesters exercising their First Amendment rights
It takes responsibility for all aspects of life, including our health and well-being, and seeks to impose uniformity of thought and action, whether by force or through regulation and social pressure.
Only I can Make America Great Again
Everything, including the economy and religion, must be aligned with its objectives. Any rival identity is part of the "problem" and therefore defined as the enemy.”
The Do Nothing Democrats and their leader, the Fake News Lamestream Media, are doing everything possible to hurt and disparage our Country. No matter what we do or say, no matter how big a win, they report that it was a loss, or not good enough. The Enemy of the People! [Twitter for iPhone]

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?
