Hi, I'm black college student studying human biology and medicine and I am a democrat, but thinking of voting differently next election.
Who decides what progressive means and what progress is?
The discovery of anti-biotics was progressive, the civil rights movement was progressive, Maya Angelou is progressive. So why exactly is having more promiscuous gay sex "progressive"? How exactly is socialism progressive? Why is mass immigration progressive? None of these things do any good.
P.S. Finland is a republic with a 50% tax rate, not socialist republic or a democratic socialism. If you want to look as socialist "republics" go to China, North Korea and Vietnam and if you want actual republics and democracies go to neighbouring Singapore, Hong Kong, Japan and South Korea. These countries, even though they have a wider poor-rich gap still provide better care for their worse off than countries who supposedly value equality.

Your post is littered with misunderstanding and wrongness, nonetheless:
Gay sex is progressive because human rights is progressive. Gay sex is human rights. White slave owners would have said something similar to what you are "how is nigger voting progressive?", except they wanted blacks to reproduce so that they could work and rape their daughters, so they would be for sex.
Socialism is progressive because it is the future. The world will not sustain Capitalism forever, the world will not tolerate Capitalism forever. Progressives desire change for the better, and just about every single educated human being on Earth understands that the Socialist Democracy is the model of the better future.
Mass immigration .. Is not progressive. However, if we had Progressive politics to begin with, it wouldn't even be an issue.
In general, Progression is idealistic change. It's not crushing the poor to pump the economy, it's not invading foreign countries because we don't like them, it's not rejecting new ideas because of fear. It's thoughtful, clear judgement and hope. If you want to know what progressive means take a look at its polar opposite.
Promiscuity though, whether gay or straight, is completely irresponsible. I vote we cut the balls off anyone who can't seem to resist a hole, otherwise we may find everyone infected with STDs and our medical system down the tube.
promiscuity is a concept for jesus freaks. if people want to put their bodies at risk, then it's their right to do so. yes: it is that damn simple

Actually no it's not their right. Rights are socially defined, and social individuals have an obligation to observe constrictions.

WTF are you doing on 4chan if you think promiscuity is a bad thing? Use a fucking condom, genius. Don't fuck hookers who have diseases. Sure people are stupid, but the US doesn't have the sort of out of control AIDS problem they have in Africa. At least Americans don't think raping little girls will cure their AIDS as they do in Africa.
No wonder people hate black people so much.

I think rights are naturally defined. We just aren't there yet. Too many people need or want others to tell them how to live.

You dumb shit, they put everyone's body at risk too, and threaten our medical system.
If you want to go and fuck yourself to death with a bunch of other people on an island, do so, but I'm not paying for your irresposibility. Nor do I look forward to trading medical reports with every woman I want to sleep with, or worrying about the blood supply, or being infected in my boxing club.
I hate the self-righteous and irresponsible. You're a hazard to all of us.
Condoms fail, and many STDs can be transmitted just by kissing.
Don't fuck hookers who have diseases.
a) You cannot always tell who has diseases.
b) In some countries prostitutes have the lowest rates of HIV infection of the entire population. Guess why?

There's no such thing as "progressive." It's a word to trick you into becoming a soul-destroying commie or a buttsecks faggot. Instead, you should support good ole fashioned 'Merkin values like killing brown people, and stealing oil.

What, praytell, does people being prevented from voting due to their skin color have to do with "gay rights"? Granted, I don't care what people do as long as it doesn't affect me, but I find attempts to hitch causes to the civil rights movement to be dishonest, at best.
I'm kind of curious what the reasons are as to why "the world will not sustain Capitalism forever" when capitalism is the reason why the world, or at least the industrialized world, can sustain the number of people that it does. If socialist democracy is "the model of the better future," why do socialist countries have higher unemployment, lower productivity, and falling birthrates, unlike the evil capitalist U.S.? Oh, and here's a tip: the smug superiority isn't very endearing.
Also, if "progressive" politics mean mass immigration is no problem, why do "progressive" countries like France have such issues?
The conclusion of your post is similar tripe, but it does highlight the problem with labels like "progressive." The label can be stretched to fit basically anything, because the word "progressive" has a positive connotation. Who will describe themselves as "anti-progressive" or "regressive"?
Go to some island and fuck yourselves to death. Some of us are happy to have just one person to screw around with, and we don't need blood checks every six months.
Brilliant argument. Truly, those seven words have magically bent biology and economics to suit your blue balls.

"What, praytell, does people being prevented from voting due to their skin color have to do with "gay rights"?"
In context to what I was responding to, it makes a lot. The OP asked why gay sex was progressive. Read: why homosexuality was progressive. Read: why homosexuals deserve rights. Read: why humans are equal. ALL civil rights causes are equivalent, regardless of the persons being persecuted or those doing the persecuting. Niggers hate fags, whites hate niggers, fags hate butches, butches hate niggers, niggers hate whites. We all want to recall each other's rights. Why do you think being a gay nigger is such a laughable situation? Whites have earned a right to be homosexuals through several thousand years of superiority, niggers have just 50 years ago earned the right to exist. Your confusion lies in your hatred, nothing else. The black civil rights movement has tried to segregate itself from the homosexuality rights movement because everybody hates gays. In 150 years, when trimorphindextrous-crossdressing-aliens want to get married, the faggots in wheelchairs and on breathing tubes will say "WE WERE FIGHTING FOR A CAUSE, YOU JUST WANT TO STICK YOUR DICK IN A TENTACLE." And you wonder why I speak as if I'm superior to you?
"when capitalism is the reason why the world, or at least the industrialized world, can sustain the number of people that it does."
LOLS. I refuse to even address this with more than laughter. Of course, you'll tell yourself in your mind that I stepped away from the argument because I didn't have one. And of course, you'll never understand the world. Read the front page of a newspaper and come back to me. I suspect you live in the US, otherwise the censors wouldn't have filtered the fact that the entire world is drifting towards pure socialism. If you want some hard evidence take a look in in your cupboards.

Think so? It's likely aliens will be able to speak to animals and prove their sentience and their humanity. And then we'll pay forever, and furries will rule Earth with love and poopsex.

And I never stated homosexuals, or anyone else, for that matter, are somehow not human or not entitled to rights. But anyway, yeah, I'm just blinded by my irrational desire to kill faggots.
If you learned a thing or two about history, perhaps you wouldn't be laughing. What raised the standard of living in Western countries to its present state? Hint: it wasn't socialism. Even Marx acknowledged that. Of course, I'm just parroting back government-implanted propaganda intended to perpetuate the state of conflict needed to justify the continued oppression of the proletariat. Socialism is actually responsible for every advancement in human history, and enlightened socialist utopias like France and Belgium are paradises of flowers and sunshine where all class distinctions have ceased to exist.

Not when MY tax dollars have to go to,.......
Giving fags, whores and junkies free condoms and needles so they don't infect each other...
Giving fags, whores and junkies Medicaid, Medicare and SSI when they get AIDS and can't work anymore.
And finally, giving fags, whores, junkies and kleptos special protection under the Americans with disabilities Act.

I'd like to see you argue with a snippet of RNA while its eating your immune system alive.
Sorry you fuckers have a tough time accepting you're swapping AIDS, syphilis, herpes, hepatitis, and whatever else you animals catch. You're a resevoir a disease that threatens everyone else. But of course you're being repressed. You should have a right to continue in irresponsible actions that are a threat to society, because of pure hedonism!
And when you infect someone else? Oh, shit, sorry 'bout that!
If you so believe that your rights trump that of everyone else, then stop living among us. Being a member of society entails certain responsibilities, which you childishly shirk off.

But it is sooooo fun to stick my wang in some guy's hairy, shankered rectum. You want to deprive me of that?
you are either a very elborate troll or a fucking moron. first of all: people can do whatever we want. period. you don't want to pay for it? stop paying taxes. there's alot of YOUR stuff plain ol' people, non-christians, non-germaphobes, non-control freaks, fags, girlsluts and playboy manwhores have to pay for AS WELL.
You can try and dice all this shit up into subjective categories all you want...it means fuck all. Unless you're willing to kill or stop playing taxes altogether...your girlish wailings are futile. "stop living among us"?
"us" who, buddy? you have a history of being the minority in this country. either way the only answer I have, is the same answer you'd have for me if I made such a stupid fucking request:
NO.
FUCK OFF.
MAKE ME.
you want me out of society? REMOVE ME, FAGGOT. let's see how you feel about "us" when we're moving down to the "kuntry" only to leave a trail of intestines, shotgun shells and condom wrappers.

How can you not be a germo-phobe? Do you not mind contracting disease? wtf??
Nope. Not 16. 24, no girlfriend and I actually have a preference for (protected) casual sex. We can't all commit, some of us don't want to have deal with a relationship right now and some of us are smart enough/handsome enough to get laid with different partner every once in a while (Meaning: We're not you).
We don't all have to prescribe to your "social contract". Especially when people forego their very own contracts quite blantantly and without shame. Especially in this instance where it is clear that it's more of a moral contract that uses fear, ignorance and bigotry. Not a common understanding of ethics.
If people use a condom or birth control it's not a problem. Obviously this is a segment of people you don't deal with anyway, right? So don't worry about it. You're safe and the kind of people you think follow the social contract are safe- so what's the problem? We're just killing ourselves, right? Case closed. You shouldn't expect everyone to conform to what you want. Because in the end, no one cares what you think. Nobody even respects you. Unless you're prepared to do something by force- you have no choice but to sit back and watch the rest of the world exclude you because your narrowminded view points.
I actually have a preference for (protected) casual sex
You're pathetic. And if you think it has anything to do with looks, wake up. Anyone can go down to a bar or a party and get laid tonight. You're not special; you're just stupid (and probably too pathetic for anyone to want to establish a stable relationship with).
As for social contract (you do know what that is, right?), one common element is: don't harm other citizens without good reason. A good reason is self defence. Blue balls isn't. As a member of SCOTUS once succinctly put it: "The freedom to swing your fist ends where my nose begins".
So why do you think you have some right to fuck around infecting other people? The large resevoir of STDs we have today, as well as the explosions going on elsewhere, are largely thanks to people like you and intravenous drug users.
"Sorry about that."

The problem is that you bunch don't keep to yourselves. I knew a girl who caught hepatitis, given to her by some guy she loved. What she didn't know, because he never told her, was that he fucked like mad before they met.
So no, it's not just you, you stupid dipshit. If it was just you, nobody would care except the insurance companies and religious nuts.
That's her fucking problem. If you're that free with your body, then you accept responsibilities for your actions. Because, you're an adult. And here something you IGNORED LAST TIME AROUND: If you don't like it, don't pay for it. We pay for stuff we don't like to pay for as well. Your bitching is meaningless.
Gotta love ad hominem attacks. All of your arguments are assumptions and straw men. Social contracts are funny things in that they are completely fucking subjective. Hippies think we have a social contract to put all our guns away and live off of the land. Conservatives think we have a social contract to keep our dicks and pussy in our pantaloons.
It's never gonna happen. Sorry. No one is going to do anything you want to under the fictional theories of social contractualism. Might as well bring up the 10 commandments.
YOU LOSE.

In case you missed in, Mr. Hard-on, she wasn't the one sleeping around with anything that moved. He was. She suffered for his idiocy (as did he). So obviously your types mix with everyone else. Your actions affect others. That was the point, in case you missed it.

Okay, so if I show up at your front door with a gang, we tie you to a chain, break your arms and legs, and do all sorts of horrible things to you, that's okay? You don't seem to care about the repercussions of your actions, so why should we? There is no social contract; it's a free-for-all.
First class arguing. You've never had an ethics or civics class, I see. 24, uneducated, and with balls bigger than your brains.
