Watch the video. Conservatives
and Progressives view Individuals and communities differently. Conservatives
ask “what can I do for myself, my family, my community and my fellow citizens”.
Progressives ask “where does “injustice” exist, what isn’t fair and what am I
owed. What has offended me today and what must my country do for me”
Achievement becomes Aggrievement
Conservatives and
Progressives view diversity and choice differently. Conservatives focus on
diversity of ideas and individual choice.
Progressives separate people into competing communities. That creates
identity politics. They don’t tolerate different views. Progressives focus on
government to impose ideas and eliminate individual choice.
Conservatives and
Progressives view “We the People” differently. We differ on what We the People is and how it
should work. Conservatives like freedom of choice; progressives like government
enforced tyranny based on their world view.
Conservatives believe
in individual sovereignty, individual rights, individual responsibilities and
individual achievement. Conservatives believe in families, parent’s rights,
school choice, freedom of religion, immigration control and communities from
the bottom up. Conservatives want to
follow the US Constitution (as originally written).
Progressives are
interested in uncovering “injustice” and exacting punishment and retribution
for “offenses”. Their only solutions are totalitarian government control from
the top down. Progressives don’t accept the will of the voters; they want to
overturn all laws they don’t like by any means possible.
