Progressive.

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.

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.

Phobias are described as "irrational fears". In this case- the paranoia that exhibited is far from rational.
