    I get what you’re saying, but “liberal progressive” is an oxymoron. Progressivism is center left/left while neoliberalism is center right/right.

    Not everything to the left of fascism is left of center.

        Modern liberals such as the ones in charge of the Dems are neoliberals though, so it’s a distinction without consequence.

      Hear hear. Liberal progressivism that’s more concerned with privatizing social welfare and forcing everything to be a market based solution than doing good is doomed to fail. We need socialist/anti-capitalist progressivism or we’re just going to give away a bunch of taxpayer money to oligarchic assholes and still have most of the same problems.
