Language: How meanings change.

I notice here repeated use of the word "Progressive" in terms of Politicals and Social Policy as a negative. Human civilisation is based around progress. (Except for the Dark Ages thing) How did Progress get to be bad?😷

Those that say it do not like change! Really simple.

What they don't want to acknowledge is that life is change therefore progressive. They unfortunately believe order is everything. And that is why religion exists. To keep their ideas of order. And only their ideas of order.

Change is an enemy for them as they see it.
