Progressivism is a LARP.
That is live-action-role-play.
Let’s review their claims in the last 10 years, its effects it had on society, and compare them to the facts:
- Claim: Gender/sex is a spectrum, and it’s possible to change your gender/sex.
- Effects: The pronoun game which included adding meaningless pronouns to official state IDs and using it as a political tool to cancel opponents, medical sciences having to feign ignorance or play along to avoid offending, men participating in women’s sports and easily dominating these sports, anyone pointing out logical inconsistencies in this claim labeled as “transphobes”, mass social pretending that these claims are true to avoid offending or cancelling, social sciences academia and even some hard sciences modifying curriculum to appease the pressure of political mobs, and offering sex change services and hormones to children.
- Facts: Humans have mammalian biology, and are a two-sex species of male and female. A person’s gender/sex is biologically determined and cannot be modified. Even in the rare cases of intersex (a person born with both sex organs) a person still only has one dominant gender/sex type determined by their chromosomes. A man is defined as an adult human male. A woman is defined as an adult human. The gender/sex claim the progressives put forward is at odds with years established biological science and is absolutely false.
- Claim: That police forces across the United States are murdering black people and minorities indiscriminately. This is an epidemic of police oppression to the point where black people and minorities should be afraid of the police.
- Effects: Massive protests and riots that caused over 20 deaths and billions of dollars in property damage, defunding of police departments across the country especially in major cities which led to an increase in property and violent crime, vilification of police departments as racist institutions which also led to a number of murdered police officers at the hands of activists, social pressure from the mob to accept their claim or be labeled as racist or bigoted with the possibility of being canceled, increased racial division, and fear from black people and minorities to interact or comply with the police which led to unnecessary escalation and tragedies.
- Facts: All people – white, black, brown, etc. have a higher chance of being struck by lightning than being shot or killed by the police when unarmed. Even armed and dangerous suspects who are killed by the police are a relatively low phenomenon and not significant. The claim is absolutely false and not supported by the statistics in the slightest bit.
- Claim: A transgender genocide is occuring across this nation. It’s dangerous to be a trans person and exist in society because they are oppressed.
- Effects: Ignorant mobs repeat this talking point as a means to silence critics and push along their political claims using emotional manipulation, institutions and society are pressured to go along with transgender claims no matter how wildly inaccurate to avoid offending or cancelling, and down playing a very serious word to describe the intentional murder of an entire group in order to garner pity points (cheapens the word and meaning of genocide).
- Facts: There is absolutely no genocide of trans people occuring, nor anything closely resembling anything close to genocide or even systematic oppression. Trans individuals experience violent crime at a slightly higher rate than the general population, but nothing significant. Many of these violent crimes are drug related similar to the general population.
- Claim: Straight white males are the most dangerous demographic and responsible for most crime.
- Effects: Increased racial division, increased anti-white discrimination and racism, rewriting of history to attribute colonialism, empire building, and slavery to exclusively white people, creation of DEI and affirmative action policies that actively discriminated against white people (males specifically), company HR departments creating anti-bias programs aimed at white people, and academia and universities actually calling to end “whiteness”.
- Facts: We should not be comparing skin color to skin color since that only leads to more racism. But since they made the claim, we have to address it. White people have the lowest violent crime rate compared to black people or any other minority group except for East Asians. In any group, typically males have a higher violent crime rate than females. However, white males have a lower violent crime rate than black females and most other minority female groups. This claim is absolutely incorrect and not supported by the statistics in the slightest. Also, colonialism, empire building, and slavery were practiced by all cultures around the world for thousands of years. It was western culture that put an end to the practice of slavery before any other culture.
- Claim: The United States is a democracy. We must defend our democracy!
- Effects: Increased mass ignorance of political systems and their definitions, pushing the idea that mob rule and rioting is democracy in action, and progressing our nation closer and closer to a majority vs minority system rather than a system of checks and balances.
- Facts: The United States is a Constitutional Republic with democratic elements. The Constitution does not mention the word “democracy” a single time in the document, nor does it emphasize democracy as a style of governance. Democracy simply means rule of the majority. Democratic processes are used in the United States such as electing state or federal representatives. However, describing the United States as a democracy would be inaccurate. The United States system of government is republican with a focus on individual liberty, separation of powers, and balance of powers. Furthermore, the architects of the United States government explicitly criticized democracy as a chaotic and unstable form of government. Being well read in both philosophy and history, they were well aware that democracy is usually the precursor to tyranny.
As you can see, progressives are major LARPers.
And these are just a few examples.
Their political strategy is, and always has been, to fabricate claims, create a boogeyman based on their false claims, and use this to instill fear and political activism into their hordes of low information useful idiots who buy into their claims without doing any verification of facts.
Progressivism is, and always has been, a political movement of destruction and chaos. Its claims are false, its outrage is manufactured, and its main goal is to always tear a nation’s cultural and social fabric into shreds. Progressivism seeks to replace the nations they ruin with a tyrannical form of government based on and backed by a low information populace prone to outrage at whatever the latest trend provides to them by their allies in the media.
Progressivism has made a strong foothold in the United States, but patriots are waking up to all the lies, nonsense, gaslighting, and emotional manipulation. This is probably because the United States has a strong tradition with individuals liberty, free speech, and free enterprise compared to other nations.
Unfortunately the great nations of Europe have fully swallowed the pill of progressivism and finalized their fate during the height of wokeism (progressives in overdrive). These nations have imported unstable numbers of illegal immigrants from cultures that refuse to assimilate and from philosophies (like Islam) that have wanted to conquer Europe since their inception. These nations have given up their free speech and free enterprise. You can go to prison for 5 years in the United Kingdom for criticizing mass migration, for example. It’s racist to fly the flag of your own nation in these once great and respected European nations. They gave it all up and committed suicide, just to avoid offending anyone. Killed by their own toxic and fake empathy.
Progressivism is just socialism in disguise. This is the same movement that supported the USSR over their own nation during the Cold War. But when the USSR collapsed and it became clear that the USSR was a tyrannical totalitarian state, this movement needed a new strategy and new boogeyman. Instead of bourgeoisie vs proletariat, it would be black vs white and man vs woman in the United States. If they couldn’t gaslight the masses with economic boogymen, they strategized that a cultural boogyman may actually work better in this case.
The United States had defeated communism and was in the golden age of the 1990s. The United States was working and advancing as it should, slavery defeated only 120 years ago, segregation was defeated not too long after that, and we were now looking at a true nation of equality. Will Smith was everyone’s favorite actor. Tiger Woods and Michael Jordan were everyone’s favorite athletes. We were all getting along.
The progressives knew that to shake things back up and create their chaos, they needed to strike soon and fast. In the 90s, progressives began pumping their radical and false ideas into school curriculum, media, and other important institutions. It took a bit of time, but once the next generation grew up through that infiltrated system that preached socialism and preached that the United States and western culture was evil and should be destroyed.
By the mid 2010’s, progressivism was in full force (known as wokeism). They tried a full frontal assault on our nation and culture. Unfortunately, it did quite a bit of damage this time, but didn’t fully succeed. Luckily there are still enough independent thinkers and patriots with discernment in this nation that called bullshit on their gaslighting and emotional manipulation. However, they are still not fully defeated, and are in the process of pushing back again. My estimation tells me this final pushback will be their most violent and radical attempt.
Progressives are going to use their fake outrage about Fascism as a justification for full violence and even murdering of conservatives and liberals. We must stand together as patriots to stop them, or we will go the way of Europe – a civilization that committed suicide.
