I hear many democrats who get upset when they are called progressives, but I'm not sure I understand the difference. The only difference I can see is that progs don't like free speech. Otherwise, they seem identical. Without the brown shirt thugs, are they not the same? What tax rate would a liberal advocate for? How is that different than a prog? The racial stuff has been going on for decades, and the liberals never seemed to have a problem with it. The Bernie Sanders stuff of free education and government mandated pay, isn't that something liberals are for? The globalist stuff of wanting to be like Europe and giving some control to the UN, is that not liberal? I don't really see the authoritarian collectivism as anything new, it just seems the progs are reckless and undisciplined. What does a liberal view of America look like? What rights do individuals have? Is it different than Bernie and the progs?
