Progressive

‘Progressive’ is a word we’re hearing a lot at the moment.
Longrider says this about ‘progressives’ and I can’t find a word I disagree with.

When someone declares themselves a progressive, my hackles rise. What they mean in reality is that everyone else must be forced to bend to their vision of society, to conform to the socialist utopia they espouse, to be a good little prole. Progressives have no place for independently minded individuals. Progressives are the enemy of individualism, and are, therefore, the very essence of misanthropy. They choose to forget that society is composed of individuals. Progressives are to be despised utterly and completely.

‘Progressive’ is a word used by someone in a recent story about ‘racism’

a progressive town like Cockermouth

What she means is a town full of hectoring, self-important, muesli muching, beardie, sandal & aran jumper wearing Guardian reading twats. (all incomers by the way)
I really fucking hate ‘progressives’ more than any thing on Earth.

Cockermouth-the Brighton of the North!! Don’t see you electing the second Green MP somehow.

But agree 100% with the post.

“I agree with your sentiments entirely”. That’s another phrase I hear often. and it drives me up the wall when you’re trying to disagree with someone! In this case I really do agree with you. If you don’t mind I would like to quote you on my blog.

The pub next door to me has changed from a nice quite place to have a drink into a ” yob pub”. It’s now always full of lager-louts and young girls, swearing, yelling and getting stoned out of their tiny minds. The new landlord always plays very loud junk music all evening from speakers in every room and I protested that I couldn’t even have a conversation with the person standing next to me for all the noise.

You know what he said? “This is a progressive pub mate; you’ve got to move with the times. Pubs have changed since your day, old man, get with it!”. So I got out.
