PROGRESSIVE’s: A View From The Eyes Of An Independent

This is an old Zoltar Speaks! blog post.

Being an non-partisan independent voter for many years I’ve had the unique position to view both sides from an independent point of view. Although the individual traits I’m going to write about here are present across a wide cross section of people in our political spectrum, what I’ve noticed over the years is that these particular traits seem to be always present in modern day ideologically entrenched progressives and their army of social justice warriors (SJW’s) and this is unique. This is not to say that you won’t find other individuals scattered throughout the political spectrum that share all these traits, but I noticed that all ideologically entrenched progressives share these traits. Please remember the traits I’ve identified are traits of ideologically entrenched progressives and SJW’s not your everyday run-of-the-mill Liberal or Democrat. Personally I’ve never met a modern day progressive, not even one, that isn’t ideologically entrenched.

Here we go…

The traits are as follows: Pompous, Radical, Obtuse, Gullible, Repressive, Enablers, Sheep, Supercilious, Immoral, Vigilante, and Evil.

Pompous: irritatingly grand, solemn, or self-important. This is self evident. Progressives falsely paint themselves as Virtuous In Every Way, that’s their V.I.E.W. of themself through their permanently attached industrial-strength weapons-grade thickened ideological blinders (#Cornelius Gotchberg), but the real truth is very different. The truth is that having high moral standards (which is the definition of virtuous) is very low on a progressives list of personal priorities, things like political antiology, political attack dog, rhetorical ABC’s, Salem Witch Trial School of Thinking, and of course at the top of their list is the ends justifies the means; these are all much higher on the priority list of a progressive. Progressives show us nearly every day that they have absolutely no moral standards, well at least none that apply to themselves, (yes they’re hypocrites) but yet they falsely impune anyone’s moral standards if those morals cause differences of opinion from their own. So what do progressives do when they are confronted with moral standards that cause differences of opinion, progressives attack the messenger; they launch public smear attacks against their target with direct and indirect implications that their target is evil, this unethical and immoral and needs to be pointedly shut down absolutely every time that a progressive or their army of lunatic SJW’s impunes the moral standards of another person. Remember a pompous progressive thinks their brain is better than everybody’s we must use logic and rational arguments to show them and the rest of the world otherwise.

Radical: an extreme section of a political party. Progressives have been dragging the political left towards the radical extreme left for many years. Progressives being the radical totalitarians that they are, they require complete subservience, contradicting opinions are simply not allowed. Progressives have shown us over the last ten years that they are most definitely totalitarians and any opinion that’s outside their radical totalitarian bubble will be deemed insane, intimidated into silence, or the wrath of their social justice warrior army of personal destruction will come raining down upon their oppositions head. Progressives put their army of SJW’s to the test during President Obama’s years as President and that test was socially successful and that test spawned Donald Trump being elected which was an unexpected consequence of their social justice test. Now that President Trump is in the White House progressives have fueled their army of SJW’s with the one tool they really needed for social destruction so they can move the United States to totalitarianism, that tool is public acceptance by the politically correct and the “woke” crowd,  These crowds now openly uses unethical rationalizations to justifying the absolute social destruction of the lives of those they oppose for whatever reason. It’s become politically correct to destroy someone for any reason using any of the public smearing tools in their immoral arsenal. This is how extremely radical this “progressive” subsection of the Democratic Party has become. Their radical extremes and open rationalization of immoral behavior is getting to the point of outright terrorism in that they are using violence, intimidation, and fear in the pursuit of political goals.

Obtuse: annoyingly slow to understand to the point of willful blindness. This is becoming a very prominent tactic used by progressives and their army of ignorant SJW’s. Presenting an actual fact to a progressive or a social justice warrior is nearing the point of being completely pointless because these people are so consumed by their antiology that they absolutely refuse to accept any actual fact, and I do mean any fact, that contradicts their opinion. Progressives categorically disregard any fact that contradicts their opinion, they appear to think that if they don’t acknowledge the fact then it doesn’t exist. Progressives have completely rejected rational and critical thinking that requires factual proof to support it and they’ve completely shifted to fact-less emotional propaganda because they’ve been shown by their sheeple that once they trigger an emotion in a sheeple that emotion will remain intact regardless of actual facts plus the sheeple have shown that they will completely reject anything that contradicts the reason for their emotion.

Gullible: easily persuaded to believe something. Progressives and their army of SJW’s have brainwashed their throngs of followers (sheeple) into complete gullibility and they will believe absolutely any progressive propaganda that’s put in their face and that is especially so for any emotional propaganda. In general, progressives have been dumbed down to the point of no return. Conclusion: the general population of progressives in the United States are stupid, having a great lack of intelligence or common sense, aka bias makes you stupid, and you can’t fix a Sasquatch Brain.

Repressive: inhibiting or restraining the freedom of others. This also is self evident. Progressives and their army of lunatic SJW’s are actively repressing any opinion that they disagree with. These people think they are justified in silencing opinions they disagree because those opinions make them “feel” bad.  Progressives and SJW’s actively collude with official entities to silence their opposition. Their tactic is so prominent that there is an entire book devoted to this singular topic, it’s titled, THE SILENCING: HOW THE LEFT IS KILLING FREE SPEECH written by Kirsten Powers; this book was published in 2015 and the silencing activity has been getting worse as the years go by. Today the blatantly open intimidation from progressives and SJW’s is so bad that companies and individuals are fearful of being falsely smeared in public by these totalitarian extremists that they’re actively making unethical decisions for the purpose of keeping totalitarian extremists at bay. These totalitarian extremists have already won the minds of a huge swath of the United States population and they’re using a lineup of willfully compliant unethical “journalist” (I used that word loosely) in the media and an army of lunatic SJW’s active in social media to ram their totalitarian agenda down the throats of those that won’t willingly comply. If the targets of SJW’s don’t succumb to the intimidation they report their opposition to their blind totalitarian absorbed snowflake social justice standard moderators and have their opposition silenced and banned from social media platforms. Malcolm X once stated that “The media’s the most powerful entity on earth. They have the power to make the innocent guilty and to make the guilty innocent, and that’s power. Because they control the minds of the masses.” this is exactly what progressives are employing as their #1 battle tactic to destroy the United States Constitution by making it effectively rendered it obsolete. Progressives and SJW’s want to replace the Constitution with their form of social justice extremism or better yet vigilantism. Make no mistake about it, progressives think the Constitution is obsolete especially for anyone who’s opinion differs from their own. The end goal of progressives and SJW’s is to strip all Constitutional rights from anyone they disagree with; does that sound historically familiar?

Enabler: enables negative or self-destructive behavior. This also is self evident. Progressives and SJW’s are on a path of destruction as far as our police and social norms are concerned. These people want to legalize everything and at the same time they are actively in the process of smearing the very existence of police and trying to strip them of the power to enforce existing laws. Their actions show us that they do not want the police to enforce laws and they have stated outright that they don’t want police in their neighborhoods enforcing laws, in our schools maintaining a non violent environment, or on patrol catching criminals. Instead they want self-policing and the freedom to roam the streets doing whatever the hell they want to do because they claim that they, the policed, are the victims of the police. This has been clearly evident in anti-police protests, twisting justifiable police shootings into absurd claims of racism, and the transparently absurd blaming the violence in public schools on the presence of a police officers in the school. There are literally lunatic SJW’s that have openly stated in public forums that “No matter how or whatever stipulations you put on a police officer going into a school they are going to do what they want to do, what they are trained to do, which is kill black kids.” Progressives and SJW’s are literally enabling criminals. Additionally; progressives have been pushing for massive social dependence on the government for years, it’s been slowly inching that way and progressives are now actively pushing socialist politicians and total commitment to a path leading to a totalitarian government that forces some bastardized form of socialism down the throats of its population. Progressives do not what to give those temporarily down on their luck a hand-up they want to give them a hand-out in an effort to make them utterly dependent upon the government thus rejecting independence and directly enabling and actively promoting dependency.

Sheep: a person who is easily influenced. Let’s face it, progressives have shown us that they’re extremely easily manipulated towards totalitarianism or socialism. Progressives thrive on fact that their sheeple will follow them over any cliff their fellow progressives decide to walk over. From the outside looking in it appears that there is some genuine monkey see, monkey do hive mindedness tendencies within the “herd”. Progressives have dumbed down the critical thinking capabilities of their sheeple and now they are controlling them with ginned up emotions. Progressives know that Emotional Training Determines Thinking and they have been promoting emotion as the only reason for making decisions for quite some time and now we are at the point where these sheeple actually think that Emotion Trumps Critical Thinking. The sheeple PHISP’s (Political Hackified Idiots Supporting Progressives) are 100% compliant to the will of their progressive and social justice warrior taskmasters, no matter what; they are showing their infinitely high cranial power generation potential. Please reread the conclusion to the gullible section above.

Supercilious: behaving as though one thinks one is superior to others. This also is self evident. This closely follows along the same path taken above in the pompous section with one clear distinction; progressives and their army of SJW’s actually think you are an idiot if you disagree with them, it’s not just a tactical smear, they actually believe it and I’ve heard so many of them say it that it’s signature significant of the whole. The truth is that progressives are faux intellectuals that are literally bigots in that they are completely intolerant toward those holding different opinions, this does not make them superior!

Immoral: not conforming to accepted standards of morality. Morality is defined as, “principles concerning the distinction between right and wrong or good and bad behavior”. Progressives hate and lie to extremes, they do it obsessively, and they profess that it’s justified and the truth; this is absurd behavior and profoundly immoral. Progressive hate filled propaganda is delivered via social media, blogs, comments, left’s hip-pocket media “journalists”, etc, and it’s filled with false innuendo and lies. Progressives ignore verifiable factual evidence that contradicts their innuendo/lies and professes that the facts are lies and then they personally attack the messenger that presented the facts. Progressives have weaponized the same kind of irrational rhetoric that was used by “The Party” on the “Ministry of Truth” in Orwell’s book “1984” using the same irrational rhetoric as “WAR IS PEACE”, “FREEDOM IS SLAVERY”, and “IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH”. The funny thing is that the last phrase “ignorance is strength” is actually true for powerful leaders as long as they keep the people ignorant of the facts; therefore, ignorance is strength but not for the ignorant.  This is much like progressives are trying to do in the United States keep the people ignorant. In the first segment of the EthicsAlarms blog Martin Luther King Day Ethics Warm-Up: The Hate And Hypocrisy Edition Marshall correctly points out the extreme levels of hateful rhetoric that progressives have stooped to to manipulate public opinion and Marshall ended the segment by stating “Nobody makes anyone behave like this. It’s their choice, and their ethical failing”. There are hundred if not thousands of examples where progressives have purposefully blasted hateful propaganda at the public that’s full of false innuendo and lies to gin up extreme emotions in their herd of sheeple; this is especially true since the Presidential election of 2016. Plastering unsupportable innuendo and openly lying in the manner which the has is immoral, unethical, and evil.  Progressives have tactically perfected their immoral propaganda. On top of their tactically perfected immoral propaganda these people attack anyone that points out their false innuendo and lies; attacking the messenger is clearly one of the highest priority immoral tactics that progressives and their army of weaponized lunatic followers use. It is crystal clear that progressives and their army of lunatic SJW’s are morally and ethically bankrupt.

Vigilante: self-appointed person(s) who search out and destroy the lives of others without any regard for the actual truth or law. We see this immoral trait used as a political and social destruction tool by progressives and their army of lunatic SJW’s. These vigilante sheeple walk around like blind totalitarian snowflakes actually seeking revenge for perceived offenses that only exist in their forefronts of their hollow shell airheads. They’re afflicted with Histrionic Malevolence Syndrome and there’s rarely a day that goes by where progressives or their army of lunatic SJW’s hasn’t immorally attacked someone they oppose using the immoral and unethical jackass journalist jackals or social media. It’s all about controlling the population using emotion, intimidation, fear of intimidation, and sometimes violence in pursuit of their political goal of total totalitarian rule by progressives. Progressives use lunatic SJW’s as their personal “strong arm” to attack those they disagree with, it’s unethical ends justify the means terrorism. These people are literally using a form of terrorism to manipulate the population of the United States.

Evil: profoundly immoral. My conclusion is that progressives are literally the evil they profess that they want to destroy and they’re too damned stupid to recognize it. Their self-awareness ignorance is causing them to psychologically project their evil traits upon those they disagree with. Progressives need to do is look in the mirror.

All these traits are not necessarily unique individual traits across the spectrum of the population; however, it’s quite unique that all of these same traits can be attributed to any ideologically entrenched progressive or their army of lunatic SJW’s. Why is it so easy to paint these people in this manner, it’s because progressives and SJW’s are unquestionably psychologically consumed by the unethical and immoral rationalization that the end justifies the means and that tends to lead all those consumed to unpredictable irrational behavior. These people are an infectious morality eating cancer in both our society and our politics, they are utterly morally bankrupt.

What’s crystal clear to me is that these people are suffering from Traumatic Political Stress Disorder (TPSD) after the 2016 Presidential election and they are taking revenge against absolutely anyone that they oppose regardless of actual truth, actual facts, or anything close to rational thinking; they have completely flushed the golden rule. The cultish behavior of progressives and lunatic social justice warriors is here to stay until nationwide social deprogramming can be implemented.

It’s my opinion that P.R.O.G.R.E.S.S.I.V.E.’s are: Pompous, Obtuse, Gullible, Repressive, Enablers, Sheep, Supercilious, Immoral, Vigilante, and Evil.

Sedition: conduct or speech inciting people to rebel against the authority of a state or monarch.

Subversion: the undermining of the power and authority of an established system or institution.

If we allow progressives to continue their unethical and immoral nation destroying tactics, they will destroy the United States of America using their tactics that are rooted in sedition and subversion.

  1. Z,

    Sent this to Jack this morning. I am interested to see if he post on it…

    Jack,

    You wonder why conservatives and whites are becoming reactionary? They have learned what the left really thinks of them, and every so often we see the hatred peek out. Note that the offender has had NO consequences from anyone at all…

    “…Osei-Frimpong posted on Facebook, “We can talk about voter suppression. We can talk about ID laws. But all of this begins and ends with the fact that we make crappy White people. So if we are serious, we have to dismantle the institutions that make crappy white people. Their churches, their schools, their families.”

    “Last week, a University of Georgia (UGA) teaching assistant reportedly wrote on Facebook that “some white people may have to die for black communities to be made whole in this struggle to advance to freedom,” adding, “To pretend that’s not the case is ahistorical and dangerously naïve.”

    We are closing in on the tipping point, where someone acts on this racism, and towns will burn.

      I send him lots of stuff that he chooses not to post on. There’s LOTS of unethical crap going on in the USA these days.

    2. I would change “Whites” to “middle class, middle America”, as I think the Progressive rejects free thinking minorities just as viciously as they seek to isolate and control “whites”. Hillary Clinton’s “basketfull of deplorables” comment did two things:

      It showed the actual disgust Progressives and SJWs have for middle Americans and Trump supporters. She clearly showed her contempt for the electorate. Aside from being thoroughly tone deaf, it showed that she is elitist and better than you. If you can’t/don’t see and believe her truth, then you are weak-minded and must be contained.
      Those on the fence heard that comment and thought, “You know, I am not a Trump supporter but I am going to vote for that guy because I am so thoroughly sick of New England elites and Hollywood frauds telling me how stupid I am. I work my fingers to the bone to provide for my family but to those bozos, it is just not enough. Frankly, I don’t care who you marry and how many times you do it. But don’t force your beliefs on people – and don’t look for businesses to strangle because they have a belief system you declared is antiquated and over. And besides, who can trust Clinton, anyway? How did she let herself get anywhere even in the polls with this guy? That speaks more about her candidacy than any Comey-email investigation.”

  2. I felt a very strong personal need to put this to words over the last few days. I didn’t read thru it to weed out unethical stuff; I’m guessing Jack could do a good job of pointing out where I went off the ethical rails.

  3. Zoltar wrote: Repressive: inhibiting or restraining the freedom of others.” I suggest the following edit or change: :Repressive: inhibiting or restraining the freedom of others whose beliefs or opinions do not align themselves with the Progressive or the SJW.” They are perfectly happy for you to have opinions so long as your opinion does not conflict with their opinions, which you point out very clearly in your post. Well done.
