Not to be confused with Liberalism.

Progressivism, also called Cultural Liberalism, representing the cultural left-wing. It's a way of looking at social reality in a generally constructivist way which claims heritage that stems from the past is not to be held sacred and should instead be viewed all less important than societal progress (The exact view of which depends on what type of progressivism is held) which usually entails the creation of a culture and social environment that is less strict and conformist and more open and inclusive.

Progressivism is usually heavily associated with centre-left to left-wing politics, although in theory, it can align itself with any economic and civic system as shown by ideologies like Pink Capitalism and Kemalism.

Variants

Social Justice

Social Justice is justice in terms of the distribution of wealth, opportunities, and privileges within a society. Although not directly tied to social progressivism, social justice is a form of economic progressivism that supports the creation of social safety nets, environmental justice, and regulation & taxation for equal opportunity to advocate for gender, ethnic, social equality, environmental justice, and for the physically and developmentally disabled. Because this is a form of economic progressivism, it can be practiced by both socially progressive and socially conservative ideologies, such as social democracy which social justice is one of the main principles of, or Christian democracy.

Social Progressivism

Social Progressivism is a socially constructivist view of society which advocates for the progression of morality and scientific advacements based off of science and philosophy rather than things like religious dogma. Socially progressive ideals include things like: Legalization of same-sex marriage, cultural tolerance, religious tolerance, LGBT rights, feminism, ect.

Cultural Progressivism

Cultural Progressivism is a form of progressivism that is focused on progressing societies identities and advocating for the equal protection of people for things like disability, sexual orientation, gender, ect. Cultural progressivism differs from cultural liberalism because cultural liberals do not favor things like identity politics to advocate for the rights of minority groups.

Economic Progressivism

Economic Progressivism, or Fiscal Progressivism, is a form of progressivism that is a political and economic philosophy incorporating the socioeconomic principles of social democrats and political progressives. Economic Progressivism is rooted in social justice through improving human conditions through government regulation and social protections. So, economic progressivism differs from social market capitalism to socialism, and critiques capitalism in ways such as: market fundamentalism, wage slavery, "socialism for the rich, capitalism for the poor" as well as rugged individualism.

Religious Progressivism

Religious Progressivism, also known as Religious Modernism, is a form of progressivism that justifies progressive ideals based on theology. These ideas themselves are almost always rooted in philosophical religious humanism as a justification. It supports things like abortion rights, LGBT rights, feminism, and other liberal ideals using religions as justification.

Christian Progressivism

Christian Progressivism, also known as Christian Modernism, is the ideological justification of progressive ideals based on theological Christianity, and Christian humanism.

Islamic Progressivism

Islamic Progressivism, also known as Islamic Modernism, is the ideological justification of progressive ideals based on theological Islam, and Islamic humanism.

Atheist Progressivism

Atheist Progressivism, also known as Secular Progressivism, is a form of progressivism that justifies ideologically progressive ideals based on secular reasonings, or is just an atheist who holds progressive ideals.

Beliefs

What is and isn't considered progressive is highly debatable, however, some ideas that are generally regarded as progressive include LGBT+ rights, feminism, multiculturalism, open borders, legalization of abortion, secularism, racial equality, drug decriminalization, religious tolerance, sexual liberation, and more. It is important to note that while all of these ideas are generally regarded as progressive, one does not have to support all of these ideas to be progressive, and conversely, one can support some of these ideas and not generally be regarded as progressive.

Intersectionality

Intersectionality is the idea that oppression based on identities mutually enforces each other. For example, they believe that a Black woman might face discrimination from a business that is not distinctly due to her race (because the business does not discriminate against Black men) nor distinctly due to her gender (because the business does not discriminate against white women), but due to a combination of the two factors.

This concept is criticized through the counter-concept of "Oppression Olympics" in which identities are constantly mashed up to find the single most oppressed individual there is, causing an endless downward spiral of wokeness. Another criticism of the concept is that it is not clear what identities count, with memes about various groups being included as oppressed such as landlords or gamers.

Whig Historiography

While not exclusive to cultural progressivism, Whig historiography is the justification for much of progressive doctrine. Whig historiography sees history as the progression to the point of ever greater equality and liberation. In this view, there is no such thing as repeated cycles, only obstacles to inevitable progress.

Personality

Progressivism can appear rather alien but is really chillaxed when you get to know him. He doesn't mind it when you ask him for money, as he is pro- Nordic Model. He loves weed but isn't too annoying about it. He likes following trends in social media, especially when it comes to international issues, and hangs out with Globalism for that purpose. However, he will be annoyed if there's any issue that doesn't align with him and regarded them as "hateful", "bigoted" and "problematic", and willing to seek changes to end such problems.

Relationships

Allies

Frenemies

  • File:Soc.png Socialism - Meh economics, but I like the equality. SocDem achieves your goals in a better way.
  • Guevarism - I mean I don't care much about you or your movement but I might wear you on my T-Shirts to piss off the Regressives .
  • Neo-Marxism - I am not sure what to feel about you. Your cultural policies are good, but /pol/tards use you as an insult against me.
  • Anti-Fascism - Appreciate the enthusiasm, but don't you think you could tone it down a bit? Why bother beating people up when we can boycott them instead?
  • Jacobinism - Your ways are too extreme but I'll at least give you credit for starting the whole thing. Plus, you're my great-granduncle.
  • Anarcho-Communism - You're cool and all, but why spill so much blood? Your attempts at establishing your ideology were all failures.
  • File:Marxlen.png Marxism–Leninism - Same as above. Also, while many of your followers are progressive, the USSR became c*nservative later on in the Brezhnev era, and the boomers who have nostalgia for you have conservative and old-fashioned views.
  • Conservative Feminism - Feminism is based, but why are you a conservative?
  • De Francism - You have some cool ideas, but you shouldn't force them on people. Not by a state, anyways.
  • Third Way - I like your social policies, but why did you ever think it was a good idea to help him invade Iraq?
  • Enlightened Absolutism - I'm glad you support progress, but absolute power is bad.
  • Yangism - You were kinda cool until you made that tweet supporting Israel...[1]
  • LGBT Conservatism - TRAITOR!!!!!!!!!! At least we both want LGBTQ+ rights.
  • Maoism - The cultural revolution was too extreme; you really didn't have to go after a bunch of things that weren't doing anything wrong other than being 'old'. I'll still take you over Dengism though.
  • Uyghur Separatism - Together we will take down Winnie the Pooh. But why are so many of you Jihadists??
  • National Liberalism - Can you cut it out with Islamophobia? Also stop making fun of me and hanging out with them all the time please. BTW DPP from Taiwan is based AF.
  • Neoliberalism - People like to tell me he’s basically the devil, but I honestly can’t see anything I genuinely don’t like about him. You're much more conservative beginnings in the 80s were obviously pretty cringe though.
  • Revolutionary Progressivism - We agree on almost everything, but violence is never the answer. Also, your strong sympathies for that idiot is rather troubling.
  • Social Authoritarianism - You're them but with authoritarian tendencies. Thaksin and Long were good, but that bigoted scumbag Lukashenko needs to go.
  • State Liberalism - No, I don't want more transgender drone pilots.
  • Fordism - What's so dystopian about this?
  • Tridemism - Based for getting rid of the outdated Qing crap and foreign imperialism, and modernizing China. Chiang and his white terror were horrible, though. You are too conservative nowadays, and I'll always choose the DPP over you!
  • Free Syrian Army - I supported you back in 2012 in overthrowing Assad, such a shame many of you got corrupted by These Guys and hate DemCon. But at least Some of your factions are still based though.
  • Liberal Conservatism - I appreciate that you want to withdraw from the rest of your clan but at the end of the day, you still don't care as much about innovation as we do.
  • Progressive Conservatism - I don't know... I understand that traditions aren't inherently bad, but you just come off as a pretty big fence sitter most of the time. You're really cool when it comes to indigenous and other minority groups though.
  • Radical Centrism - Same kind of issues with the guy above but on a broader scale. I wouldn't really call you a 'crypto-conservative' like some other people, just pretty misguided.
  • Reactionary Modernism & Technoprimitivism - *visible confusion*
  • Technocracy - We're similar and we're both intellectuals but why are you authoritarian?
  • Islamic Democracy & Islamic Feminism - You both are the type of Muslims I tolerate the most. I just wish you were a bit more open to secularism.
  • Christian Democracy & Liberation Theology - Same as above, but Christian.
  • Ceremonial Monarchism - We support the monarchy, as long as they don't interfere in national affairs!
  • Interculturalism - While promoting the co-existence of different cultures is fine, you're often a bit too focused on assimilation and don't really pay attention to issues like racial equity that much. Still prefer Multiculturalism to you.
  • Bidenism - Better than Trump, I guess... Also, let's not forget that you were racist in the past.
  • Libertarianism - We both smoke weed, but he flirts with conservatives a bit too much for my tastes.
  • Zionism - I oppose antisemitism and I like that many of you are pro-LGBTQ, but ethnonationalism and being a neocon simp is cringe.
  • Ho Chi Minh Thought - I initially supported you against neocon, but you later became friends with him and now you are culturally conservative.
  • Futurism - Why don't you like me.. are you a Fascist or something? Wait, YOU ARE A FASCIST! Wait, you aren't??? Ok, I think my brain is starting to hurt.
  • Postgenderism - Calm down buddy. Non-binary people deserve our respect no doubt, but your idea of just completely abolishing the concept of gender feels pretty idealistic and misguided. A whole lot of people like being seen as a man or a woman, and there isn't anything wrong with that.

Chuds
