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.

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.

No one is going to do anything you want to under the fictional theories of social contractualism.

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.
