    Script:
    Do you believe in free speech?
    Do you believe that people should be judged by their character, not their skin color?
    Do you believe in freedom of religion?
    If you believe these things, you’re probably not a progressive. You might think you’re a progressive. I used to think I was. My show, “The Rubin Report,” was originally part of the progressive “Young Turks” network.
    Progressives struck me as liberals, but louder. Progressives were the nice guys; they looked out for the little guy; they cared about women and minorities; they embraced change.
    In short, who wouldn’t want to be a progressive?
    But over the last couple years, the meaning of the word “progressive” has changed.
    Progressives used to say, “I may disagree with what you say, but I will fight to the death for your right to say it.” Not anymore.
    Banning speakers whose opinions you don’t agree with from college campuses - that’s not progressive. Prohibiting any words not approved of as “politically correct” - that’s not progressive. Putting “Trigger Warnings” on books, movies, music, anything that might offend people - that’s not progressive either.
    All of this has led me to be believe that much of the left is no longer progressive, but regressive. This is one of the reasons I’ve spent so much time on my show talking about The Regressive Left.
    This regressive ideology doesn’t judge people as individuals, but as a collective.
    If you’re black, or female, or Muslim, or Hispanic, or a member of any other minority group, you’re judged differently than the most evil of all things: a white, Christian male. The Regressive Left ranks minority groups in a pecking order to compete in a kind of “Oppression Olympics”. Gold medal goes to the most offended.
    Martin Luther King, Jr.’s dream that his children would be judged by their character and not their skin color was a liberal idea, but these days, it’s not a progressive ideal.
    And what about religious freedom - the idea that no one else can tell you what you have to believe? Surely progressives still support that basic right.
    Well, not so much.
    I’m a married gay man, so you might think that I appreciate the government forcing a Christian baker or photographer or florist to act against their religion in order to cater, photograph or decorate my wedding. But you’d be wrong. A government that can force Christians to violate their conscience can force me to violate mine. If a baker won’t bake you a cake, find another baker; don’t demand that the state tell him what to do with his private business.
    I’m pro-choice. But a government that can force a group of Catholic nuns - literally called the Little Sisters of the Poor - to violate their faith and pay for abortion-inducing birth control can force anyone to do anything.
    That’s not progressive; that’s regressive!
    Today's progressivism has become a faux-moral movement, hurling charges of racism, bigotry, xenophobia, homophobia, Islamophobia and a slew of other meaningless buzzwords at anyone they disagree with.
    The battle of ideas has been replaced by a battle of feelings, and outrage has replaced honesty. Diversity reigns supreme - as long as it’s not that pesky diversity of thought.
    This isn’t the recipe for a free society, it’s a recipe for authoritarianism.

I don’t think that we should push white men out of a job if they are qualified to do that job, same thing with a minority. Two I believe that people should be able to say what they want even if it is not politically correct. Two I believe in god and I am a cristian. Why don’t you say anything like that about other religions because most major ones like the Jewish, the Muslims, the Islam they all believe that there was a Jesus and all of these religions started in different places with no communication for hundreds of years. And even if god isn’t real isn’t it kind of nice to think that you will have a reward after we die for the good things that we did in our lives. Anyways I stand for the flag and kneel for the cross.

If the people in the government are dependant on these corporations for their income they will do what these corporations want. So if these corporations put pressure on the politicians then laws will go in favour of these corporations. This is common and causes corpuption because a non democratic organisation like corporations are gaining control and power over the government which is meant to be democratic so democracy weakens in the name of capitalism. Then you say "stealing" from corporations in order to redistribute wealth so that poor people who are subject to buying food, clothing and shelter from these corporations can actually afford it if it is not already free like it should be. Furthermore, these corporations are also "stealing" from their workers because the fact that a profit is made means that the workers are not paid all the value they added to the product or service therefore they have been stolen from.

      you live in a progressive fantasy where the corporations that invest in jobs, goods and products are the evil ones and the government or democracy is a victim,
      this never happens in any country, including my own. where do you think the salaries come from? the only thing you want is that the state steals to do charity with other people' pockets and you think you are morally superior because you care about "poor people", you think that poverty is because a few are rich just because you don't know how wealth is multiplied, I really suggest you to get out of that mediocre mentality you have and look for more information about it. the only problem I see in the united states is its gigantic state that kills the middle sector with taxes, that's why everybody is leaving new york and going to places where taxes are not so high. The only enemy of any country will always be its own government. that is why countries with more economic freedoms live better and those with less live worse.

      @@thomashidalgo6975 i cba debunk all of that but you can find a ton of UA-cam channels that actually provide sources and that these sources are credible, make shore that they are, one example is second thought, instead of a what appears to be a purely capitalist content area you view. Then saying I don't know what capitalism is, is a very naive take just like me having all the opportunity in the world to say that you dont know what socialism is. FYI I'm also not American, I just have knowledge of American as a case study and the clear failures of capitalism such as having a lower life expectancy than Cuba, more empty homes than homeless people, a secret police that has incited countless civil wars on the side of a dictatorship government simply because they are capitalist. The American government seems to want to do little about it and instead lower taxes like trump did in order to let Jeff bezos and elon musks 100 or 200 billion dollar networth inflate. In the face of evidence like this I am unable to then say the government is bad. Furthermore considering the government as something bad is stupid because they idea, in a democracy as we have it in the western world atleast, is that the people elect a representative that they agree politically with in order to have the country go in favour of the people. But the American government seems to be ignoring the millions of homeless people in their country especially when they have the resources to attend to it

      I would argue that classical liberalism shares a lot of the same tenets as classical conservatism. In other words, many conservatives today are more neo-conservatives than traditional conservatives. The idea that liberalism and conservatism are two opposite ends of the spectrum is a false dichotomy perpetuated by our political system and media to give people something to argue about so that they pay less attention to what is actually going on.
      I'd argue that it's more libertarian than anything, although people act like that's an insult, because my god, how could anyone in their right mind be a libertarian? (Again, another group that people tend to lump together as if everything one libertarian says must be espoused by all.)

      People don't realize we will be technically bankrupt. Within a few days when the debt clock hits 20 trillion the stock market will REACT! No one knows how bad. If people panic and start yanking money out and run to the bank and try to pull out all their cash we will be in trouble. This is a PLANNED reset. Planned in 1964. Then comes a group starting with Bush 41 who believe in corporate installed Oligarchies over nation-state governments. America isn't the richest country in the world. Most countries have 1-2 trillion debt. Look at this clock and you will understand. Don't believe them when they say it is Wall St and the banks.
      It is the Federal Reserve IMF bank and the DEBT. it is important we work and even open businesses. This is why the push for entrepenuaers as they merge the 3 central banks of North America and work on the underlying value of the currencies there will be shocks to the system. A giant super economy doesn't die over night. 2021 is the goal for currency conversion THEY PLANNED. This much debt wasn't planned. When Reagan left office we were a half trillion in debt.
      Just wait to hear their excuses. They know and if fact planned it. This falls squarely in politicians laps. People who understand and remember normal historical immigration levels. Reagan gave 11 million Amnesty with the promise of a fenced secure border. Well then Bush 41- Obama come along and decide American kids won't get the American Dream. People who care about our kids & grandkids futures care. what a tax payer owes on just this national debt would buy a house.. Obama spent more than the last 43 POTUS combined. You will see the beginning of what this means when this debt clock hits 20 trillion. www.usdebtclock.org

It doesn't matter than no religion that exists at the moment happens to call black people sinful in the same way that they call gay people sinful. Government upholding the sanctity of the whim of some author of an ancient book is the peak of spineless relativism.

      I also left the left, but on reflection I realize my positions haven't changed in the last 15 years - the Left has. For instance, in 1986 Harry Reid passed an anti-illegal immigration bill to protect american middle class wages, safety, etc. What he wrote is nearly identical to Trump's position. Bill Clinton held a similar view in the mid 90's, that not controlling borders leads to stagnant wages, higher crime, etc. The Left used to be a champion of the average worker, helping Unions, etc. Now look at the TPP (partly authored by Obama and Hillary): a major power giveaway to giant corporations, which undermines decades of civil right and environmental progress, and screws the working class. If you haven't read the TPP - it is shocking, no matter your political view. Then there's Islam. I actually value equal rights, religious freedom, gay rights, free speech. All of these things are the literal antithesis to the tenets of Islam. So why should I support and foster that culture? Why is it racist to criticize a belief system that in many ways mirrors what we saw in Germany 70 years ago?

It basically ended up being a pissing contest of who had it the worst. Immediately afterward my ex told me how furious she was that people were competing as to who had a harder time in life. Her explanation to me was that she started the conversation, therefore it was rude for people to try and one-up her particular sob-story. I don't disagree but her reasoning in the end was the fact that she CLEARLY had it the hardest so there shouldn't have been a competition in the first place. Go figure... she was unable to see the hypocrisy in the fact that she was competing herself. Anyway, the moral of this story is... uhhhh I forgot why I even wrote this.

But more and more I saw conservatives would identify as Christians and defend people regardless of identity, and I saw that liberals would bash me for being Christian, and would always insult my beliefs and have a condescending tone as if I were unintelligent. And if I happened to disagree with something like say abortion I shouldn't have an opinion because I'm "shoving the Bible down" their "throats".

    Watching this video provided some relief for me. Things for me began to change when I realized that most of the liberal whites I encountered did not truly have my interest at heart. Perhaps as a black American they saw me as a victim of an amorphous ambiguously racist system in need of their protection when I NEVER saw myself as a victim to begin with. I have grown tired of this played-out victim narrative of every 'minority' group, including my own. It's like they're in desperate need for self-affirmation so they become advocates for every group and demand everyone to be nice. That spells a very parasitic relationship.

Our voice is important to repeat twice as much, pray for the light bulb in their heads to turn on and tap into what all have in common... that deep sense of morality and justice and the need for real Love. People without a leader need a hand to pull them out of their bewilderment. They're afraid of what they don't understand. So help them to understand... educate, use humor, but be hard as a rock emotionally and don't fall for the bait of agitators. They want you to do something that makes you look bad and takes the focus off of the stupidity they're associated with.

      @@kiwi4493 don't be condescending. You probably don't like when people generalize the right wing. I'm just saying, it's possible to be a tolerant, moderate leftist. I am, I respect individuals with different views and I like to openly debate ideas, I'm flexible to changing my mind in certain subjects when people make reasonable points, and I'm sure lots of more conservative people can also be open to debate. The problem is many people seem to only see two possible ways on politics, and if you're on one side, everything on the other side has to be wrong, when, in reality, things are way more complex than that. Both sides are misunderstood by the other side, but no one wants to really debate ideas and compromise, people just want to be correct no matter what and impose their way on others. It's the false dilemma that if you're not with me, you're against. It's just not logical...
