https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regressive_leftI was a bit amused by the self-avowed "progressives" on the following video (David Pakman and his ex-Muslim guest Sarah Haider), who seemed to have difficulty understanding why their liberal peers were so intolerant to the truth they were pointing out about Islam. It can be fun to watch progressives, increasingly getting bogged down in the glue trap of political correctness, set by their peers on the left. (near the end at about the 10 minute mark)
As "progressives" they have been spoiled by having been beneficiaries of the censorship of views that oppose their own, by a biased media and a liberal/Marxist educational system along with their peers, that are normally busily toiling
on their behalf to censor opinions that differ from their own, rescuing them from having to face the truth.
The girl and her friend in the video don't understand being treated the way they were, because it is an exception for them, while it has been the way conservative thought has been treated by the left on most subjects, since the mid-1960s or so.
