The term was coined by a horrified liberal Muslim Brit and advanced by other horrified liberals. Real liberals, actual liberals.You're welcome to review the second line of my sig.you know, Mac... I like you. we have the odd interesting conversation. but let's not pretend you're non-partisan. every time you use the word "regressive" improperly, you're partisan. have a great day hon
There's a huge difference between being partisan on individual issues, and obediently and blindly following a larger ideology.
You have a great day too, hon.

and I don't fall in line with every view of the DNC... you, of all people, should know that.
but disrespectfully misusing a word in a way it's misused by the hacks is a partisan act intended to place the word for the actual policies of the far right and try to make it applicable to the left... like when certain morons start talking about the KKK being a democratic thing (which it probably used to be but hasn't been since 1968)
cheers.
And the reaction it gets here certainly is telling.
And regarding being disrespectful, the term "Regressive Left", even though it was coined by a liberal, is the closest I come to any kind of name-calling or personal insults here. Compared to what I see in virtually every thread outside the CDZ, I'm pretty comfy with my level of respect for others, whether I receive it in return or not.
