What does "post-progressive" mean? Imagine the possibilities
Woodrow Wilson, a leader of the Progressive Movement, was the 28th President of the United States (1913-1921). After a policy of neutrality at the outbreak of World War I, Wilson led America into war in order to "make the world safe for democracy."How Mad Men Explains Woodrow Wilson -- And How Not To Pick Leaders
After years of debate Princeton University has voted to remove Woodrow Wilson's name from its school of Public Policy because of his extreme racism. Wilson's views and actions were abhorrent even by the standards of his era. He discouraged Black students from attending Princeton and segregated the (previously integrated) federal workforce. You can imagine an African American student at Princeton, knowing his or her school was honoring this figure (or crossing the Potomac's Woodrow Wilson Bridge), telling themselves that he is being honored for his other achievements - despite his racism, not because of it. After all, Wilson was President of Princeton, Governor of New Jersey, and the President of the United States who led America to victory in the First World War. If anyone's achievements are large enough that they should be honored despite their racism, Wilson seems like an excellent candidate.
"People tell us who they are, but we ignore it because we want them to be who we want them to be." - Don Draper, Mad Men Season 5Who did people want Joe Biden to be? VDH: The Left got what it wanted -- So now what? Gallup: Americans Revert to Favoring Reduced Government Role Seems kinda late for that, IMHO. Post-progressivism? I ran across an appeal for people to join the cause of post-progressivism this week.
"Join the alliance".
Why now, I wonder?The newly emerging perspective of cultural intelligence is post-progressive because, while it affirms progressive values, it also recognizes the legitimacy and ongoing necessity of modernist values and traditional values as well. Cultural intelligence can see how each worldview's values are an integral part of America's overall cultural ecosystem. And like a biological ecosystem, these different parts of our cultural ecosystem are interdependent.They have graphics. With the typical stereotypes. And a blog, educational materials, etc.
Traditionalism's negatives . . . include: racism, sexism, and homophobia. Traditionalists also have authoritarian tendencies. Yet like modernity, traditional culture needn't be eliminated, we can carry forward the best, while pruning away the worst.Good thing Woodrow Wilson wasn't a "Traditionalist"! He could have been even more racist and authoritarian! Post-progressive.org, meet Thomas Sowell:
To those stunned by Attorney General Merrick Garland's plan to use the USA Patriot Act* against parents protesting school curriculums, we commend the dissent by Justice Clarence Thomas in a case called Brown v. Entertainment Merchants. It will reassure you that you are not alone. There is at least one justice who comprehends the constitutional standing of parents in respect of their own children. Brown v. Entertainment Merchants was decided by the Supreme Court in 2011. The court cashiered an attempt by California to prohibit the direct sale of violent video games to minors. The court reckoned the law was afoul of the First Amendment's freedom of speech clause. Justice Thomas' opinion is one of those dissents that, in the long haul, could well prove to be more important than the majority opinion. That's because Justice Thomas's dissent is one of the most radical statements in the Himalayas of our Supreme Court jurisprudence on the constitutional prerogatives of parents. . .
Brown v. Entertainment Merchants arose after California passed a law banning the sale of violent video games to persons under the age of 18. California was promptly sued by, in Entertainment Mercahnts, a trade association. They were opposed by the governor, Edmund Brown, and the state attorney general, one -- remember this -- Kamala Harris. At the Supreme Court, the state of California lost.
Justice Breyer concluded that the law did comport with the First Amendment. Justice Thomas, though, came in from deep right field. "The founding generation," he wrote, "would not have considered it an abridgment of 'the freedom of speech' to support parental authority by restricting speech that bypasses minors' parents." He referenced, among others, the Puritan settlers and their view of the authority of the parents. . . . After going through history over the centuries, Justice Thomas summed up with words that, we'd like to think, protesting parents might find encouraging. "'The freedom of speech,' as originally understood, does not include a right to speak to minors without going through the minors' parents or guardians," Justice Thomas concluded. It would no doubt be an error to make too much of those words. Justice Thomas was, after all, alone in his dissent. However, it would not be an error, in our view, for America's beleaguered parents to take heart from what Justice Thomas wrote.There is a "Dogs As Supreme Court Justices" video at the link. Really. At the opposite side of the spectrum, Teen Vogue is now providing educational materials to schools.
America's education system has fallen to No. 22 in the world, but don't worry - They're from Teen Vogue, and they're here to help. Teen Vogue has graduated from articles promoting communism, Marxism, and countless Democratic Party talking points. And now they're creating classroom content. The magazine published an article headlined, "In Session: The Teen Vogue Lesson Plan," which seeks to mend what it calls a "patchwork education system" that exists thanks to a lack of a national curriculum, which would make it easier to steamroll states objecting to specific material and teaching methods.
Without intervention from Teen Vogue, teachers would continue depriving their students of don't miss topics such as "Tear Gas and Pepper Spray: What to Do If You're Exposed" and "What Is Environmental Racism? 10 Facts About How It Works." There are several subjects that are likely already included in curricula - such as how a labor union works. But it's not enough unless they teach it the Teen Vogue way. . .Meanwhile, during the pandemic, they have been promoting sexting. And before that, there was this:
The once-trusted fashion and beauty teen publication of Conde Nast, Teen Vogue is now a parent's worst nightmare. Its editors have repeatedly ignored public pleas to stop posting and remove sexualized content targeting its "teen" demographic of 13-19 year olds, including the 46,000 concerned citizens who signed Enough Is Enough's (EIE) 2017 "Say No to Teen Vogue" petition launched in response to its article, "Anal Sex: What You Need to Know/How to Do it the Right Way." The graphic, jaw-dropping "guide" told its young readers "This is anal 101, for teens, beginners, and all inquisitive folk," failed to mention the use of protection and neglected any warning of the health risks associated with anal sex, including the risk of transmitting HIV, according to the CDC. The publication stressed to female "non-prostate owners": "Many vagina owners love anal play ... You don't need to have a prostate to enjoy anal sex ..." The guide also had a special section on "The appeal of anal sex when you have a prostate."So now girls and women can be referred to in government documents as "non-prostate owners". YAY! Though "owners" sounds sort of capitalistic. Get it together, Teen Vogue. Music We got a request last week for Moar Real Tango.

I call bullshit.
American Tradition is one of tolerance, assimilation, community building, individual achievement.
Racism, totalitarianism, and bigotry have historically been the province of a very narrow band of a few sub-cultures, all of whom have at some point been co-opted by progressives and democrats in one form or another.

All so-called progressivism is regressive; change to the proven failed systems of socialism and communism. It's a lot like alchemy; the lead didn't turn to gold because you just didn't mix the right ingredients, but capitalism is more along the lines of, "mine more gold, work hard and earn more gold, or build a reactor and turn lead into gold, dummies".

About the Declaration there is a finality that is exceedingly restful. It is often asserted that the world has made a great deal of progress since 1776, that we have had new thoughts and new experiences which have given us a great advance over the people of that day, and that we may therefore very well discard their conclusions for something more modern. But that reasoning can not be applied to this great charter. If all men are created equal, that is final. If they are endowed with inalienable rights, that is final. If governments derive their just powers from the consent of the governed, that is final. No advance, no progress can be made beyond these propositions. If anyone wishes to deny their truth or their soundness, the only direction in which he can proceed historically is not forward, but backward toward the time when there was no equality, no rights of the individual, no rule of the people. Those who wish to proceed in that direction can not lay claim to progress. They are reactionary. Their ideas are not more modern, but more ancient, than those of the Revolutionary fathers.
- Calvin Coolidge

This is the sad truth about conservatism, of which Coolidge might have been this nation's greatest adherent.

That's the paradox. Conservatism can never win, as long as there are humans running things.

I have had this Calvin Coolidge quote up at every place I have worked since seeing it on the desk of a colleague at my last internship in college, 23 years ago. Had my program manager compliment me on it when he saw it flash up as my background on my computer during a presentation I gave a couple weeks ago.
Nothing In The World Can Take The Place Of Persistence.
Talent Will Not; Nothing Is More Common Than Unsuccessful Men With Talent.
Genius Will Not; Unrewarded Genius Is Almost A Proverb.
Education Will Not; The World Is Full Of Educated Derelicts.
Persistence And Determination Alone Are Omnipotent. The Slogan "Press On" Has Solved And Always Will Solve The Problems Of The Human Race."

I ran across a lost bit of history, the Patagonian Strike, where workers in the sheep and wool industry that had its sales in the UK were suffering under the recession at the end of WWI, and were striking for better pay, focus on recruiting families instead of single men, better housing and that the proprietors of the company store speak and label things in Spanish instead of English.
At the behest of the British firms, the Argentine army was dispatched and shot as many of the strikers as they could find.
There is a movie about it called Facon Grande and there is a lot of Anarchist publications that ran out of steam in the late 20's for some reason . . .

Wilson's achievements outweigh his racism? Fuck that shit. I don't buy any of the premise, for one thing. For another, his "achievements" were shite, his legacy is awful, and his racism was virulent. If we're gonna play this retarded little game, there are about dozen historical figures less deserving of cancellation who already have been cancelled. He's only getting any kind of defense because he's a Leftist icon and the others aren't.
Secondly, these people can take their other false premises regarding "post-Progressivism" and run them flat up their pseudo-intellectual fartboxes. I ain't racist, sexist, etc. And if these hypocrites want to lay off their authoritarianism on the so-called traditionalists, maybe they should take a step back and look at the rigidly conformist dystopian Kafkocracy their precious Progs have built around all of us. Fuck all that shit, too.

Traditionalism's negatives . . . include: racism, sexism, and homophobia. Traditionalists also have authoritarian tendencies. Yet like modernity, traditional culture needn't be eliminated, we can carry forward the best, while pruning away the worst.
Another case example of why people who are estranged from God shouldn't be permitted to define their opponents from their stunted and amoral worldview.
If they see "traditionalism" from the viewpoint of "Life Unworthy of Life" perspective, then they are completely incapable of even comprehending any concept of transcendence nor morality. This makes it impossible for them to understand the foundational principles of "traditionalism" - so they try to define in it their extremely limited vocabulary and irrational context. Which produces failure as expected.
They literally cannot understand us. They are unequipped to do so.

So if you consult the internet, they seem to have the narrative sewn up tight: Wilson was incompetent for the last two years of his Presidency, and his wife was "running" the country secretly.
Then there's this guy, Joseph Tumulty. According to the internet, he and the wife didn't get along too well, but he still managed to have a LOT more influence over events than the narrative claims.
In other words, he directed Edith, who was pretending to be listening to her husband the whole time, even though by then he was a babbling imbecile.
The REALLY funny thing is, the internet seems to have bought this notion that Edith and Joseph didn't get along. Even though he was right there, until after Wilson was out of office, at which time the great mystery is when Tumulty was shut out of the Wilson world.
It's like people think sex didn't exist in the 1920s.

Wilson set himself against this. If this dour Christian didn't believe in the perfectability of man, he instead believed in the perfectabilty of the state.
Wilson was a Christian for as much as the current Pope.
They don't even know who God is, but their arrogance demands that they are never wrong and have nothing to learn.

some people believe that Wilson was essential in squashing the nationwide riots and strikes by the Wobblies, and other anarchist/socialist unions, but he mostly drove them underground by illegal enforcement, and by doing so also propped up the "respectable" unions that would side with the government instead of the workers.

Progressive values include: environmentalism, diversity and inclusion, and social justice for every level of society
So let's see...can a born again Christian "traditionalist" participate in progressive society? No? That doesn't seem very inclusive.
And does social justice include allowing trannies to rape 15 year old girls at school?

Traditionalism points to the Declaration of Independence. How on earth can anyone read that document and say it was a pro-authoritarian screed?
The only division in that document was: We will risk our lives, fortune and sacred honor to separate us from totalitarians.

Progressives literally make you carry around your papers, ban you from attending church, visiting family, seeing loved ones in the hospital, attending graduations, weddings and funerals, get forced medical injections, track your bank transactions, snoop in your communications, and hide your face in shame like you are a diseased rat or a cockroach.
None of that stuff is "traditional".
If I were not a man touched by the grace of God, I'd feel the urge to find whoever wrote that and smash their head against a rock.
As is, I soldier on.

The Left has so well managed to deconstruct the language, and several generations of maleducation has produced a people who don't know what the word "tyrant" means. To them it is a slur and a sound that is intended to trigger the emotional association to "bad person".
Similar to when the college kids were yelling FJB and some whiny Karen called them "racists". She is too cowardly to confront them, so she consults her highly limited emotional vocabulary, finds the most hurtful word to her and then screams it hoping that her own mental illness and associated pathologies is found in her opponents she instantly now hates.

And to expand upon this point, it is only formal national and international socialist states (USSR/NAZI Germany, etc) that have traditionally claimed this level of power.
Traditional Banana Republics are *objectively* freer then American blue states.

But...But...But..the Zimmerman letters!
We were arming the Allies and not the Central powers. Getting angry about hostility from the Central powers was...not a rational response.
But it would have required a great leader to keep America truly neutral and obviously we didn't have that at the time.

I forget what's actually in the Zimmerman papers, but remember when I first read of them, I thought I was finally going to get the real reason we went to war (which I had never been able to grasp from school "history" classes).
Then I read them.... and thought "that's it? That's all we got???"

The Left has so well managed to deconstruct the language, and several generations of maleducation has produced a people who don't know what the word "tyrant" means. To them it is a slur and a sound that is intended to trigger the emotional association to "bad person".

Posted by: Just a side note at October 16, 2021 11:10 AM (EeAvh)
Not really. Wars cost more than lives lost in battle, and "winning" often results in things getting worse for the "victors."
One could easily argue no war is morally defensible except a truly defensive war. Any time you are the aggressor, or show up uninvited, voluntarily, you're into the murky waters of moral ambiguity, and then have to start asking the question "why did our so-called leaders get us involved in the first place?"
The answer often is, because it suits them. And WE, the collective us, are the losers. Always.

The newly emerging perspective of cultural intelligence is post-progressive because, while it affirms progressive values, it also recognizes the legitimacy and ongoing necessity of modernist values and traditional values as well.

Del Mar is one of those names that show up, seem to have been thought up in that heady post-war era of naming things to make them SOUND exotic, when even at the time most people would have had to know it was trashy kitsch.
Like "Hotel Del Mar," and "Steak Del Mar." Ooh, now that's fancy!

For some events, like WW1 and WW2, my Grandfather and Dad were not only witnesses, but participants, so I'll take their word over some other sources. LOL
Using same logic: Right now we are both living during the CoViD Plannedemic. So we each have perfect comprehensive practically omniscient knowledge of the origins, motives, interactions, transactions, deployment, response and continued action from all actors, at all levels.
So we should agree on absolutely everything related to SARS-CoV-2, right?

Anyone heard this?
This one is new to me--- My local, USAToday toilet rag had an editorial yesterday calling for a memorial to the FOUR Capitol Police officers who COMMITTED SUICIDE following COMBAT on January 6th, and this was accompanied by a picture of "insurrectionists" knocking down what looks like a bike rack.
And yet, I bet millions read that , mouthing the words and shaking their heads, believing all of it.

To get a real read on "progressive values," read Edward Bellamy's "Looking Backward," progressive porn from the late 19th century, on how wonderful every was going to be if only socialist crap were implemented.

You seem to be stuck on something else posted by KT above, that I'm not interested in. There's no simple "did we win or lose the war." There really isn't. It's not modern revisionism to look back on history, and compare what actually happened to the propaganda that is written by the SAME types of people who write narratives today.
There's always information one can absorb, that doesn't follow the narrative, and often shines light on what really happened, in part because the people who WROTE the narrative are trying to lie to you.
Don't buy the lies. The truth is out there.

Dad replies, "Son, you have all the facts right, but have come up to the wrong conclusion."

There were two Zimmerman telegraphs, the first was a contingency based on us getting involved after Germany went to full blown unrestricted sub warfare. The second proposed immediate alliance based on the first ones text being revealed. As a bonus, the telegraph's were sent on a us line devoted to allowing germans to communicate privately over peace proposals that wilson could push. Btw, casus belli technically exited when us citizens were killed by submarine action even apart from us flagged ships being sunk without warning.

The notion that unrestricted submarine warfare is just part of war is a good example of presentism. People in 1914-18 were appalled at the idea (except for the Germans).

Wilson was a real POS, but I fear that cancelling him opens the door to cancelling others--Washington, Jefferson--and just about everyone else in our past whose racial bonifides don't match up with ours

Don't be silly. Why would they have one of those.
The "history" of the end of the Afghan adventure is being written as we speak. Word is, Trump had negotiated with the Tolly Bon, to give us enough time to get our men and material out. The problem is, if the world had seen us bugging out, they would have (correctly) assumed we were admitting defeat.
So Team Biden decided to continue to pretend we had set up a strong military and government in Shitholeistan, with the knowledge beforehand that it was going to fall as soon as we left.
I have no idea what they thought would happen otherwise, but apparently the one thing are military industrial complex and CIA could NOT allow them to do, was admit the last 20 years was a total loss.

The CIA no longer needs its funding through opium trafficking. China's fentanyl has muscled in to that operation so the CIA is now into human sex trafficking from the open southern border and has "gone legit" by invested heavily in companies providing the mRNA shots.

Relative in his eighties, heart attack and surgery last year, unvaxxed, got the Wuhan Death Miasma last week, did MASK+ and is back on track.
Son of that relative, fully vaxxed, got the Wuhan Death Miasma too (different source) and is trusting the mRNA not doing alternate interventions. Not doing as well to date.

Another we forgot about obama's disastrous and corrupt first term is how obama was never to blame for anything -- he was always the "outsider."
Also, about this time in 2009, we were told the "only problem" with obama is he is surrounded by incompetent people who can't execute his "vision."

Horde sourced question;
is anybody aware of a case anywhere when an individual successfully sued a public entity (store, city council, school board, etc) for contracting COVID following voluntary attendance at that eentity? If so can you provide a link or at least a location so that I can look into it to evaluate the circumstances?

Did TR play spoiler and split the vote enough to usher in Wilsonian disaster? Seems to me 1913 brought central banking (for good or ill) and Direct Election of US Senators.
Oh, and Direct Income Tax (formerly declared unconstitutional, but then later, like Totally Constitutional You Guys, and then followed by a nice big Foreign War ... That is still reverberating today, and not in a good way.

We do need government .. common defense is mostly a foreign thing, but we also need government to stop bad people domestically. That also applies to bad people in "free markets".
But we don't need government to work on making people good (by forcing Wokeness, especially). But "struggle sessions" are now top down, including the AG attack on parents.
Freedom of religion, freedom of association ... back to the fundamentals. Forced diversity allows no real diversity of politics, as we see in academia, MSM, DeepState. BigGov is on the offensive against the people's Liberty.

Sadly, this likely *would* be all over the news if President Trump had somehow won the 2020 election. The Left's strategy would have stayed anti-COVID-"vaccine" and they would have been highlighting every single adverse reaction and death and blamed it on Trump and Operation Warp Speed.

If you can't get the horsey meds, stock up on quality forms of Vitamins C and D/K2 and Zinc. Clean hands and surfaces with alcohol-based sanitizer.
Get good vitamins, not the crap they sell at supermarkets. Watch youtube for info.
Eat good food. Stay healthy as possible.

NOBODY can read an entire bill, including all the references to other bills with changes, in the small amount of time from inception to vote. NOBODY. Would you sign a contract that's thousands of pages without having looked at it? Congress would and has and continues to. It's all part of the game.

_ "No one worried about the weaponization of government. So, we went right from the nefarious legacy of John Brennan (who lied under oath to Congress twice),
James Clapper (who lied under oath to Congress once), James Comey (who leaked confidential presidential memos), Andrew McCabe (who gave false testimony to federal investigators),
Lisa Page (who was fired from the special counsel's legal team for various unprofessional conduct),
Peter Strzok (about whom there is not enough space to detail his transgressions), and the now convicted felon Kevin Clinesmith onto the next round of impeachments.

So what government hand outs will be eliminated? What agencies will be eliminated? How will the government shrink? When does the balanced budget come into effect? When do our politicians agree that the laws and regulations they impose on the serfs apply to them as well?
If you believe this country will have a smaller government or even slow its growth, I have a pig in a poke just for you.

336 JUST IN - Delta Air Lines ditches "divisive"
#COVID19 vaccine mandate, CEO Ed Bastian announces (Fox) Posted by: Tami at October 16, 2021 11:35 AM (cF8AT)
-------------------
Friday, DeSantis said, 'Just think of Biden', he says, "Don't make the vaccines divisive."
'Don't make the vaccines divisive? You are trying to take people's jobs away over this issue'
'You are trying to plunge people into destitution. You are taking away their livelihoods - no one else is doing that. You are the one that's being divisive about this'

Gallup: Americans Revert to Favoring Reduced Government Role
Seems kinda late for that, IMHO.
========
My theory is that this is just Republicans, out of power, suddenly deciding that less government is good. We don't see Democrats suddenly clamoring for less activist government when out of power because they're more ideologically aligned and dedicated to governmental power.
Republicans, however, are more temperamental when it comes to the principles of limited government. It's a great idea when out of power, but when in power...you know...there are social ills that need to be addressed.
This isn't really a judgment call, just an observation.

They've got a year to payoff the crooks.
Republicans win the House and Senate in '22. and even if we are stuck with McConnell and McCarthy.
they have about zero chance of a payoff.

That post-progressive web site was, despite its claims, nothing more than a weak centrism with a pseudo-intellectualism pasted on top.

My grandson told me about his electric car tags being $200.00 a year.
I said why?
A. Government wants us to buy and drive electric cars, to stop using gasoline.
How ever not using gasoline reduces the revenue from the taxes on using gasoline.
SO, in order to preserve the taxes garnered on using gasoline they add the lost revenue of using an electric car on your tag.
Therefore you the driver do not gain anything but feel good.
B. Government makes it just as expensive and gives us a reason to NOT drive electric cars.
The problem here is..................GOVERNMENT.
So big one part doesn't know what the other part is doing and sabotaging itself and it's policies.
