How to know if you're progressive?

    They always take this preachy, condescending tone like they're lecturing a child about right and wrong.

    Liberals, please understand : not everyone shares in this idea that you should get to assume a moral high-ground by default, especially on the issue of minimizing an ongoing genocide to try to pressure people into voting for a candidate that is shitty even aside from their material support for that genocide.

    Liberal proselytizers come across as deeply repellent in general, and this behavior only makes it worse.
