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?😷

These are the same people that literally think murder and oppression are holy works of God. It's not that the word has changed. It still means progress and looking forward. But the people saying it is bad are they themselves bad. They have good and evil literally mixed tf up and think they are the good guys for killing gay people and oppressing minorities.

@canusernamebemyusername Agreed. It has become just another meaningless label in some places.😷
