1. While the most obvious difference between conservatives and progressives is the willingness of the latter to accept patently false ideas as the basis for their worldview.
In numberous cases, even the most effortless research would show that their solutions don't work.....
Si mundus vult decipi, ergodecipiatur. ( If the world wants to be deceived, so let it be deceived)




...But the most salient difference between the two views is the acceptance of the slaughter of those who don't agree, or don't choose to follow their doctrines, with a shrug.

Looking at any of the totalitarian theories of leadership...and that includes Liberalism and Progressivism, and one can imagine their explanation as 'one must break some eggs to make an omelette.'


. "Early socialists publically advocated genocide, in the 19th and 20th centuries. It first appeared in Marx's journal, Rheinishe Zeitung, in January of 1849. When the socialist class war happens, there will be primitive societies in Europe, two stages behind- not even capitalist yet- the Basques, the Bretons, the Scottish Highlanders, the Serbs, and others he calls 'racial trash,' and they will have to be destroyed because, being two stages behind in the class struggle, it will be impossible to bring them up to being revolutionary." George Watson, Historian, Cambridge University.





One of my favorite conservative intellectuals is Theodore Dalrymple. I've posted his work often. And in his recent interview he once again focuses on the detriments with which Progressives burden society.

2. " Progressive Ideology ‘Dehumanizes The Population’

...in which he warns America to stop its intellectual dishonesty to restore a healthy society. He thinks his own country is incentivizing the decline of its culture with policies and has insightful suggestions for America, if we will only listen. ... says the West is “too weak-willed,” “accepts obvious untruths” and “treats people as objects.” In this 28-minute video interview with The Daily Caller, he says “the intellectual dishonesty of the West is the greatest threat – we can’t say what we really think.”

.He discusses family breakdown where serial step-parenting replaces fatherhood, graffiti, and the de-christianizing of a society.

Dalrymple sees no easy solutions but warns that waiting for the political “man on the white horse” is unrealistic. Rather, he says, culture is where a country will be saved.

He ends the interview explaining that the road to hell is paved with bad intentions masquerading as good ones."

Here is the vid....Throughout the thread, I'll quote it...perhaps not verbatim, for those who haven't the time to watch it in its entirety.
You can monitor it here:

 
Progressives hate all human life, that's why they are history's most prolific mass murderers. What's John Wayne Gacy compared to progressive idols Stalin and Mao?

HEY!

Now...just watch out....next thing you'll be claiming that the great Franklin (the First) Roosevelt endorsed those mass murderers!!



....and you know the avalanche from his fans that that would entail.
 
3. "Our society has become so weak-willed that it accepts many untruths and acts as if they were true.

We treat human beings as though they were objects...incapable of reacting to their own circumstances.....and we give them bad incentives.

The greatest threat is that we are afraid to say what we actually think. The solution is for people to speak up, and to write.




We make the mistake of believing in a kind of 'determinism,' by which we infer that people are forced to behave in the way that they do by their circumstances, by their psychology, or by their genes, and that they cannot behave in any other way.

Of course, the Progressive elites who put forth that view never think of themselves in that light.

It is, in fact, impossible for anyone to believe that he, himself, is determined, in the way he is willing to accept that millions of other people are 'determined.'

Therein we find the model of Progressivism, and a prime example of the willingness to accept false ideas.

How many progressive in America can you name who want to slaughter anyone who doesn't agree with them?

The AGWCult, Val Jarrett

lol, PoliticalChic's twin wants to kill anyone who disagrees with her.

Good work, Kosh.
 
How does a progressive government that doesn't want gays dehumanized translate to a government that dehumanizes the population?

...for example..

As Goldberg describes..."The excesses of the European versions of fascism were mitigated by the specific history and culture of America, Jeffersonian individualism, heterogeneity of the population, ..."
....but the desire to force others to dance to the Progressives jig is still there.



4. This determinism is the impetus for the totalitarian mechanism: coercion.

If you convince yourself that 'determinism' is the guiding principle of other people's lives, and they can not behave other than the way that they do...then it is up to you to force them to behave in the way you wish them to.


And this is a prime example of the dehumanizing of the citizenry, because, no matter how poor, or how poorly educated they are, human beings are capable of making independent judgments: that's what being a human being is.



In his experience with heroin addicts, Dalrymple found this sort of determinism. When asked why they began taking heroin...the explanation sounded like the law of gravity: "I fell in with the wrong crowd."

Of course....none of these individuals described themselves as "the wrong crowd."

So...the blame is the determinism of a sort of 'social gravity,' rather than the fact that they made conscious decisions, wanted to be in that group, and do what that group did.



Of course, the Progressives who are able to provide benefits for them go along with the fable as though it were true. In effect, saying "You are completely innocent ...you are a victim."

So you can name 'none'.

Why did you say it then? Why try to claim that progressives want to kill everyone if you know that's an outright lie?

'Facts' not in evidence.

Are you denying that progressives in America are and have been fighting for equal rights for gays, and conservatives have been resisting every step of the way?
 
More lies from the OP, another straw man fallacy, another failed thread.


Well...as usual, C_Chamber_Pot...you couldn't find any lies.

That must mean that you're either a liar, or a simpleton.

Or both.

Your lie is the very opening of the OP, when you claim that the difference between conservatives and progressives is that progressives want to kill those who disagrees with them.
