@Roaring_wolf2030 Which is why I'm a liberal, not a "progressive".

How do you differentiate the two?
@LnzyHou I always looked side eyed at "progressive" when it came out, since it was a way to rebrand liberalism, which had been trashed since the 80s by the GOP. At least from my perspective, progressives want the same things as liberals, but too many of them want to have it happen immediately. It took decades for liberal reforms to be enacted. Nothing arrives by just tweeting or saying "You should want this, it's so obvious." @Roaring_wolf2030

NOW, it also seems like we have to differentiate between Progressive (a political bloc/party/candidates) and progressive (a mindset/philosophy/worldview)?
Had this pointed out to me recently, though, in hindsight, examples abound, that the two are not always the same or indicate the same set of values.
I consider myself to hold a lot of progressive views/values, but mostly vote for candidates of the Democratic party.
