Some claim what was progressive, has now become regressive.<\/p>\n<p>In other words they want to return a less developed state.<\/p>\n<p>Look at what the left champions. They place certain groups above others, with the worst, and most evil, group being the white Christian male. They paint entire groups with a broad swathe of believes and then don\u2019t waver. So if you come up and claim to be a Christian, and appear white and male, you, to them, are already evil.<\/p>\n<p>One of the first I noticed to break from the \u2018left\u2019 was Bill Maher.<\/p>\n<p>While I will disagree, I have come to actually respect his views because I get the idea he still respects mine. Though watching when he starts blasting certain view points of the left the crowd doesn\u2019t seem to know how to react. Part of them knows he\u2019s right, but they have been taught to believe that way like zombies.<\/p>\n<p>Dave Rubin is another one who actually calls progressives regressives and then explains it all in a video on YouTube. You can catch it on his channel, the Rubin Report.<\/p>\n<p>The split is happening and an internal civil war among liberals is beginning.<\/p>\n<p>Who do I want to win?<\/p>\n<p>Liberals. They are the tolerant people who listen and push for change. They don\u2019t blindly follow a cause because their teachers said so, or because it\u2019s the \u2018cool\u2019 thing to do. They don\u2019t place one group above another. They don\u2019t look down on others. They don\u2019t wrap themselves with the cloak of intolerance while claiming to be tolerant.<\/p>\n<p>For now all I can do is sit back and call things how I see them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Something interesting I have started to see recently.
