What else but bias and illogic would one expect in an editorial in a publication which bills itself as "Madison's Progressive Newspaper"?
Obviously, the word "Progressive" has been mangled by the Left to mean anything but "progress." "Progressive" as used in their sense of the term is nothing but left totalitarian. That's actually retrogressive, because it implies going back ("retro") to a society modeled after the defunct Soviet Union.
And morally back to a society modeled after the Roman Empire at the time of Nero and Caligula.
