    Sounds like you’re getting tunnel vision while examining the lunatic fringe under a microscope and then generalizing that as the entirety of progressivism.

    It’s really just a caricature though, because the same edge lords that you’re describing would actually refer to most progressives as some variety of “neoliberal,” “shitlib,” or even “fascist.”

    They’re not serious, and the left would be better off without them. In fact I think most of them are plants.

    But in case you’re not just being disingenuous and you’re actually curious about progressivism, then try reading about the policies advocated for by people like Bernie Sanders, AOC, Abdul El-Sayed, etc…

    And then if you tell me with a straight face that those aren’t pocketbook issues, I won’t believe you
