My point is that progressives are by definition a religious belief orientated social and political movement.

And just like the kansas baptists doesn’t see a problem with infusing law with belief, so do you. I urge both of you to stop and consider what imposing a value system on one another means. That is the definition of extremism and violates a principle tennant of government for all.

For this I blame the media. A progressive media, is not an objective media. Objectivity is what gives the media credibility and without credibility that watchdog is impotent to defend democracy. They are chipping away with each drama bait article at a fundamental pillar of our society. Trump isn’t doing anything. Travel ban, yeah, that’s FUCKING NORMAL doesn’t change society. Glossing over the fact that a intelligence leak changed the presidents staff. That’s some scary shit that ends of institutional conflict or malevolence. The end result: the media gets reduced to the credibility of buzzfeed. and the president just convinced the american people that the intelligence services is a enemy of the state.

You can have literally Hitler elected and democratic institutions will limit his abuses and probably overthrow him. That is why we don’t have fascism, that is why you do not normalise government by executive order. That is why effective government is a dangerous government.
