Oh you know.....you know!!!!No idea WTF you are babbling aboutYou have killed innocent people. You are a murderer. You will never wash the taint of unseen blood from your hands. It is the same speech and you have gone lower then your enemy. An enemy that is unproven. You are a murderer. And you don't care.No it wasn’t completely differentProgressives WERE the founders8. The premise of the Founders was that liberty pre-exists governments, and said governments are legitimate only when ‘instituted’ to ‘secure’ natural rights.
Progressives have a very different view: rights, for example, to private property and free speech, are ‘spaces of privacy’ [see Timothy Sandefur] that government chooses to ‘carve out and protect’….or not. For Progressives, Liberals, Democrats, you have no such natural rights as specified in the Declaration of Independence.
So, Progressives offer to trade material benefit to those who are willing to give up their birthrights as Americans.
Star Parker writes about the offer made by Progressive Franklin Roosevelt:
There is the passage from Genesis 25:29-34, which accurately describes the cultural shifts that took place during the Great Depression. Read this, and replace "Jacob" with "Uncle Sam," "Esau," with "the People," and "birthright," with "freedom."
29 Once when Jacob was cooking some stew, Esau came in from the open country, famished.
30 He said to Jacob, “Quick, let me have some of that red stew! I’m famished!”
31 Jacob replied, “First sell me your birthright.”
32 “Look, I am about to die,” Esau said. “What good is the birthright to me?”
33 But Jacob said, “Swear to me first.” So he swore an oath to him, selling his birthright to Jacob.
34 Then Jacob gave Esau some bread and some lentil stew. He ate and drank, and then got up and left.
So Esau despised his birthright.
Agree with Progressives?
Welcome to the gulag.
And they believed NOTHING like the progressives believe today. It was the exact opposite. So don't make it sound like you and they are one and the same. The two couldn't be further apart.
All men are created equal is still a progressive value
Conservatives believe only white, male, straight Christians are equal
