What Is Progressivism?
- Progressivism is the official religion of the WEST: USA, Australia, New Zealand, Europe, etc.
- Progressivism is an ideology that seeks to dissolve the distinctions between groups:
- Men & Women (gender distinctions)
- Citizen & Non-Citizen
- Example: Are you against non-citizens voting in your elections? Then you are NOT a progressive as you are making distinctions between different groups.
- Adult & Child
- Example: Are you against pedophilia? Then you are NOT a progressive.
- Different races
- Different classes
- ALL DISTINCTIONS MUST BE ERASED / ELIMINATED!
- Progressivism only moves in ONE direction, so if you stand in the way of progressivism and try to pump the brakes, you will be thrown out immediately and destroyed in any way they can.
- Progressivism ultimate goal is communism.
The Progressive Party
- The 1st convention of “The Progressive Party” was in 1912, headed by Teddy Roosevelt.
- Theodore Roosevelt led the Progressive Party (commonly known as the “Bull Moose Party”) in the 1912 presidential election.
- This came about after Roosevelt, who had previously served as president from 1901-1909, became dissatisfied with his successor William Howard Taft’s policies and leadership of the Republican Party.
- When Roosevelt failed to secure the Republican nomination at the 1912 convention, he and his supporters broke away to form the Progressive Party. Roosevelt famously declared he felt “as strong as a bull moose,” which led to the party’s nickname.
- It was also known as the “Bull Moose Party”
- The election ultimately split the Republican vote between Taft and Roosevelt, leading to Democrat Woodrow Wilson’s victory. Roosevelt came in second place with 27.4% of the popular vote and 88 electoral votes – the strongest showing ever by a third party candidate in a U.S. presidential election.
- The Progressive Party’s influence declined after 1912, though many of their proposed reforms were eventually adopted in the following decades.
-
The Progressive Party’s platform advocated for:
-
Women’s suffrage
- Direct election of senators
- Primary elections for state and federal nominations
- Workers’ compensation and workplace safety regulations
- Conservation of natural resources
- Trust-busting and corporate regulation
