sticks out like a sore thumb. I thought progressivism was more of a market socialism type affair? A disproportionate number of diversity quota advocates are open socialists or communists.
- RealityNow 9y agoOpen communists? Interesting, I've never met any of those. Perhaps Silicon Valley and California are a lot different in that regards to NYC, where declaring yourself a communist is sacrilege.
- beaconstudios 9y agowell I don't know the situation on the ground so well as I'm in the UK, but certainly online most of the PC types I've spoken to are avowed socialists (as in proper socialism, not the Republican definition) and a few are communists. Looking at the on-the-ground anti-free-speech protests that have become so iconic of the movement you'll see a lot of anarcho-communist symbology and tactics like the black bloc.
