    Progressive’s current platform is what used to be George W. Bush’s. Every election, they keep shifting further and further to the right.

      While the American Left has been shifting right for the past few decades, were you even around during W. Bush’s presidency? Progressives today want exactly what W. Bush campaigned against - proper climate policies and social / welfare safety nets.

        I was born during Nixon. Democrats talk about climate change while doing nothing to mitigate it. Biden’s proxy wars in Ukraine and Gaza has been a huge contribution to future climate issues. The material conditions of the marginalized still suck when a Dem is in office. They don’t care about them either.
