There are a lot of conservatives in Hollywood, and they’re not very welcome. It’s a big surprise that we’ve come to this juncture where people with patriotic thoughts could not find a home in Hollywood.

“I think the word ‘progressive’ is a very devious term. It was created as a substitute for ‘communist.' What they propose is the reverse of progress. It’s some that that does taste of communism and Karl Marx’s pernicious philosophy.”

[Parley Baer]

Jon is right on target.

Control the language, control the debate.

Progressive was an alternative for Socialist. When both became tarnished the perfectly good “Liberal” was coopted.

When, after several decades, Liberal became tarnished there was a return to Progressive. But now Socialist is becoming increasingly acceptable again.

I have resigned myself to call them commies like they are.

You know the sodomites stole the term “gay” years ago to soften the tone.
I will continue to call them sodomites.

We are at war for this country although most prefer to ignore it.

[Bullish]

“I think the word ‘progressive’ is a very devious term. It was created as a substitute for ‘communist.'

I've been telling everyone I debate with this for many years.

[Still Thinking]

“I think the word ‘progressive’ is a very devious term. It was created as a substitute for ‘communist.' What they propose is the reverse of progress.

I don't know, they refer to cancer as "progressive".

[Logical me]

Jon, you got it right. That is why I call King Obama a communists black Muslim terrorists. He is a terrorists because no person on earth could have done so much damage to America that this insane black fool has accomplished is so few years.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

He is correct.

[Gamecock]

[MUDDOG]

They’ve stopped calling each other “Comrade” too.

bttt

[NFHale]

In public, anyway...

“Control the language, control the debate”.

Political Correctness was designed after the Russian Revolution to control the narrative.

Political correctness does not allow critical thinking or rational discourse. “Progressive” sounds appealing and nice to the fools.

It has worked beyond their wildest dreams.

[djf]

Much the same as “politically correct”.

Something is either true or false... why is it not just “correct”?

Because this is a fancy way of saying “a lie”, that’s why.

[Ancesthntr]

Maybe Trump should name Voight as his Veep (though I doubt that he’d want it) - he’s another clear-thinking, clear-talking guy. He certainly would be far more qualified to lead this nation than anyone with a “-D” after their name.

[djf]

Damn, I was posting when you posted that!

GMTA!

[Uversabound]

You are right, did you hear Joe Biden yesterday go on about how he is going to be heard, especially for the gay community etc.

Its a buzz word for syre,

Love Jon Voight

There is a Seinfeld epidode you know........

[txrefugee]

A toast to one of the bravest men in America!

[Cowgirl of Justice]

And they stole the rainbow as well.
