Remember what I always say, the more sure you are that you are right, the more likely you are to be wrong...And, man, progressives are really sure they're right...
I liken the "Progressive Movement" to that famous euphemism: no single raindrop takes responsibility for the flood. In their minds, Progressives are not responsible for bad things, only for good. Rain, likewise, is a good thing, until there is too much of it. Progressives, however, cannot imagine too much of their good-doing.
Well said. There is no sense of professional individuality in progressivism. Therefore, no sense of individual responsibility. Therefore, nothing is ever their fault.
Bill Maher says it well: “Part of the appeal of a Herschel Walker or a Donald Trump or any number of egregious a__holes Republicans have backed is in their mind the worse a candidate is the more it says to Democrats ‘Do you see how much we don’t like what you’re selling, all that socialism and identity politics and victimhood and oversensitivity and cancel culture and white self-loathing and forcing complicated ideas about race and sex on kids too young to understand it? Literally anything would be better than that.’ That’s their view, that’s why you can be a really bad dude in Republican politics and it’s not a deal breaker.”
Yeah, remember the time I spoke up for Herschel? No you don't, I never did. Remember the time that I said Trump is the best possible candidate for [president? No you don't I, never did.
Are you missing Maher's point? The way I read it, he's saying that democrat leadership sucks so bad, that anything looks good beside it. Anyway, that's the way I see it. You go on and on about Trump like he's worse than Biden. Do you really believe that? How about Hilary? I've been condemning both parties for decades; where have you been? Who, really, is it that has a huge blind spot?
I can't believe it. I don't disagree with anything you're saying, yet you take it like there must be a fight in there somewhere... Did you ever hear me defend Hillary? No, you didn't. Biden? Only as the lesser two evils.
Yup. Show me where I've misjudged. (I can't help noticing you have not attacked any of my points, and I made a number of them. You're just making with the ad hominins.)
You are correct. Progressivism, is managerial Scientism and has always been a plague of power-hungry mid-wits.

Geez, chill!
I responded to your points. What were you expecting?
You're seriously, with a straight face, pointing at others and saying "the more sure you are that you are right, the more likely you are to be wrong"?
Yup. Show me where I've misjudged. (I can't help noticing you have not attacked any of my points, and I made a number of them. You're just making with the ad hominins.)
To what extent are you sure you're right?
???? I'm not. That's my POINT!!!!!!!
“Dondald Trump was nearly murdered, and it’s just more news. We barely feel it.”
Yes the deluge of “events” goes on and on and seems to be escalating
With our swamp rats
“There is no there there”
That phrase sticks
