Not sure what you mean by this - regardless of whether you agree with antiracism or progressivism- if you take them at face value, ie “progressivism” = reforming society to improve the average human condition, and “antiracism” = reforming society to be less racist, they seem fairly aligned, no?
Also I suspect that the venn diagram of politicians who self-identify as anti-racist, vs politicians who self-identify as progressive is something very close to a circle.
The binary nature of antiracism - if you’re not in agreement with antiracism you’re a racist - is not something I would associate with a middle of the road politician.
- freejazz 3y agoIt's pretty clear that what the person you are quoting to is referring to "progressive" as an action stemming from the political group colloquially referred to as "progressive" which is objectively distinct from the concept of progress and there is no reason why you need to pretend to be this obtuse!
