PROGRESSIVISM is incorrectly named.
It is really REGRESSIVE-ISM towards COMMUNISM !
In short, it's built upon LIES !

The opening paragraph of Barbara Tuchman's "Guns of August", describing the funeral procession of King Edward VII of England:

So gorgeous was the spectacle on the May morning of 1910 when nine kings rode in the funeral of Edward VII of England that the crowd, waiting in hushed and black-clad awe, could not keep back gasps of admiration. In scarlet and blue and green and purple, three by three the sovereigns rode through the palace gates, with plumed helmets, crimson sashes, and jeweled orders flashing in the sun. After them came five heirs apparent, forty more imperial or royal highnesses, seven queens–four dowager and three regnant–and a scattering of special ambassadors from uncrowned countries. Together they represented seventy nations in the greatest assemblage of royalty and rank ever gathered in one place and, of its kind, the last. The muffled tongue of Big Ben tolled nine by the clock as the cortege left the palace, but on history’s clock it was sunset, and the sun of the old world was setting in a dying blaze of splendor never to be seen again.

Five years later they were machine-gunning each other, killing 10,000 men a day, for over four years.

Yeah, a lot of today’s professors are totalitarians and they do not countenance dissent from the leftist orthodoxy. They are mean and they are dangerous. (And apparently aren’t that interested in showering very often.)

It is more a matter of liberals branding their worldview as morality, that one must agree with their ideology to be smart, kind, love, rational, educated.
It lets them smear everyone else as an ignorant, stupid, crazy evil hater.
After a generation or two of using courtesy and subtle insults and mocking to silence conservatives, the younger generation has never heard the alternative view. They believe the bad stereotypes because it saturates popular culture and comes from their “neutral” teachers K-college.
They now invest religious levels of devotion to liberal ideology (social justice warriors). To be good requires being liberal, liberals are good no matter what they do.
So digital lynch mobs ruining someone’s life, getting them fired and rendering them unemployable based on a Tweet taken out of context is fine.
Calling people up with rape threats and death threats is OK, since you’re fighting for the sacred victims. And your friends egg you on to be even crueler, find new ways to hurt the victim.
Because you’re fighting “evil”, there are no boundaries. That’s how college kids in a social media argument have their parents getting hate mail and late night phone calls, Sargon of Akkad (Youtuber)’s girlfriend got hate mail and threats as punishment to him, Dana Loesch’s kids got threatened, Scott Adams of Dilbert’s girlfriend was deverified twice (affecting her income) when he didn’t give up criticism of SJWs.

What is called liberalism is really fascism. The UK is closer to full fascism than the USA, but the gap is narrowing. Schools in the USA, an adjunct of the government, actively persecute individuals for their thoughts, and no one tries to stop them.

Liberals love totalitarianism, especially the *slamic kind, because it’s part of their belief system. They do not want anyone to think an unapproved thought.

I have posted this before in another thread, so please bear with me.

If President Trump were really and truly the Fascist Hitler the Left purports him to be,
There would have been a big “Night of the Long Knives” and they would all be DEAD.

But...the fact remains that they are NOT dead, and seem to have no fear whatsoever when it comes to flapping their jaws about the President.
