It's not that long ago that hiring a progressive usually meant hiring a tolerant person who would go the extra mile to include everyone, also people they disagreed with.
It's only recently that parts of the progressive movement has radicalized.
- Trasmatta 5y ago> a tolerant person who would go the extra mile to include everyone, also people they disagreed with That sounds like the definition of liberalism rather than progressivism. I don't think the progressive movement has ever really fit under your definition -- or even wanted to. I think what you may be seeing is more people shifting from liberalism to progressivism (at least in certain communities like this).
- chubbyish 5y agoAt the extreme ends of the spectrum people always end up turning on each other. Many liberals like DHH who don’t stay up to the minute eventually get cancelled. The US left is unrecognizable from just a few years ago. I couldn’t imagine being able to dissent on anything in public. And who knows what will be outlawed in the future. Hopefully it all collapses somehow.
