I was watching Youtube today, and one guy said he was a Liberal Progressive.
Liberal progressive. Isn't that an oxymoron? Both the words Liberal and Progressive are at odds with each other if you use the true definition of Liberal. Meaning, anyone who fights for personal freedom. I.e. a Libertarian.
A progressive in the present political definition is anyone who wants to run society using Political Darwinism. I.e. Communism or Socialism. Really, it's an oxymoron.
Libertarian, or Liberal, defined.
So if you go around advertising that you are a Liberal Progressive, you are stating that you are a moderate on politics. Isn't that interesting. As for me, it's getting so you can't have it both ways. You are either liberal or you are progressive. Moderates are caught between the two and usually can't choose.

The Socialist Song
I present the Socialist Song, sung to the music of the Lumberjack Song.
Barber: I'm a Socialist and I'm okay. I sleep all night and I work all day.
American Founding Fathers: He's a Socalist and he's okay, he sleeps all night and he works all day.
Barber: I make my money, I author my books,
I go to the lavatory.
On Wednesdays I go shoppin'
And have buttered scones for tea.
American Founding Fathers: He makes his money, he authors his books,
He goes to the lavatory.
On Wednesdays he goes shopping
And have buttered scones for tea.
Barber: I make money, I skip and jump
I like to press wild flowers.
I burn the flag of the United States,
and hang around in bars.
American American Founding Fathers: He makes his money, he skips and jumps
He likes to press wild flowers.
He burns the flag of the United States,
and hang around in bars?
He's a Socialist and he's okay,
He sleeps all night and he works all day.
Barber: I make my money, I destroy the dollar,
the mark, and the lira,
I'd wish I'd been a Communist
Just like my dear Papa!
American Founding Fathers: He makes his money. He destroys the dollar,
The mark, and the lira?
[All American Girl talking]
What's this? Wants to be a Communist? Oh, my!
I thought you were so individualistic! Commie!!
[American Founding Fathers singing]
He's a Socialist and he's not okay
He sleeps all night and he works all day.
He spends the day restricting people's freedoms
In order to make us look bad.

Caesarism, Two Cows . . .
After being exposed to the "two cows, government" website, I thought I'd do some more.
Under Julius Caesar, you have two Cows. You raise them for the glory of Caesar, who comes along and takes them for the glory of the Republic. When you protest, Caesar explains that he's the Master of them all.
Under Augustus Caesar, you have two cows. Caeser says that your cows are better than any other cows because they are morally upright and worship the old cow gods. He also makes you proud to have your cows, because you no longer have to take care of them. although he takes care of them, while cow talking to the cow council for advice. The cow council thinks they are in charge, while Augustus owns all the cows.

The Athenian Democracy, two Cows . . .

In an Athenian Democracy, you have two cows. You want bigger pasture, so you and your friends go to the assembly to vote on whether to allow you to expand your pasture for your cows.
In an Athenian Democracy gone bad, you have two cows. Your friends are jealous that you have the cows so they vote to take your cows away. They also make up a charge that your herding methods are corrupting the Athenian Youth, so they vote to make you drink Hemlock.
Under Libertarian thought, you have two cows. Your libertarian friends will fight for your rights to keep your cows.
Under the extreme radical feminism: you have two cows. The feminazis come along and convince your cows that they are bulls.
