In reply to the discussion: Looks like Trump got tamed by Mamdani [View all]Cirsium

Sure, let's argue over the definition of a word in lieu of a meaningful dialogue. "I'm a progressive!" "No, I am a progressive!" Next up "what progressive means to me" and "what the word really means."
Here is a clue: The word is not the thing. The description is not the described. If I call a boulder a marshmallow, that doesn't mean it won't hurt if it lands on my head.
OK, strike "progressive" and just replace it with "people with whom you disagree." Nothing changes. Are we good now?
If you truly want to "see constant PROGRESS being made" then you must be pretty fed up with party leadership and the moderate wing of the party, yes?
