Acknowledging the rise of a new islamic caliphate has, only recently, gained main stream media acceptance.
We are currently at a juncture where we need to pause and reflect on the situation. How did we get to this point? Our reflection must include the Progressive voices of three years ago, who claimed that the definition of fear mongering was to simply report the facts of a developing situation.
In the case of the restoration of the Khalifah (islamic caliphate), Progressives said that the definition of fear mongering was to use the public, video-recorded statements of various forces in the Middle East who were in the process of taking action to restore the Khalifah.
But that is not the end of the story. Progressives took their rhetoric further and said that even floating the idea of the new Khalifah was 'dangerous.'
In my view, when Progressives play the 'free speech is dangerous' card, they are really just conforming with their party's long-held historic platform - one that seeks to ban things for which it disagrees.
Never mind that in the case of the islamists coveting the notion of a new caliphate, there were huge amounts of readily available information which clearly staked out the issue. I would go so far as to say that keeping the words of the caliphate-backing islamists from the American public has to be one of the most grand media deceptions of the last century. The evidence is everywhere. No research needs to be done. All that is needed is to replay the the islamist's own words.
Rather than debating openly and honestly, Progressives target anyone - commoner or otherwise - who doesn't sign on to the Progressive world view. Those who refuse to march in lock-step with the Progressive's chosen PC terminology of the day will, in turn, have their character targeted for assassination. And then the three-day news cycle repeats. And repeats again.
It is in this sense that Progressives champion elitism, all while claiming to be fighting against elitism. It is really fucking unbelievable how many people don't see this contradiction.
Do something really PC-unfriendly that garners a lot of attention - well, Progressives will probably take steps to silence you. In some cases, they will use the force of law. Let us not forget that the maker of the now famous 'Innocence of Muslims' movie sat in a California prison for a year after we discovered that the future does not belong to those who slander the prophet of Islam.

Progressives even touted the notion that legitimate 100-year-old laws are already on the books that could be used to prevent a citizen from disrespecting the prophet mohammed.
Reality check: if the 'shouting fire in a crowded theater law' were really used that way, and the state restrains a serf from speaking out against religion (Islam), wouldn't the state, then, be promoting that religion? Where is separation between religion and state? If that happens, would we really be Citizens anymore, or only mere serfs with limited rights in free speech?
Let's recap. While Progressives promote a separation between church and state, they simultaneously want the government to sensor free speech against Islam. No contradiction there.
And while they talk about the Catholic Church's war on women, they basically remain silent on the actual war on women in the Islamic world. 'Culture must be respected,' they say. Okay. Agreed. But if you follow up by asking Progressives where the line between culture and human rights is located, they'll probably answer with, 'it depends' or something like that.
This is why, in my view, Progressives seem to be confused by very simple concepts most of the time. They don't apply their logic evenly, and they are wholeheartedly ashamed to apply it universally. As a result, they must remember a hundred different definitions of the same thing, you see? And so, in the end, they really don't stand for anything, other than a very ambiguous relativism.
What about how progressive women have no problem covering their hair while traveling to predominantly Muslim countries, yet crucify Western culture for promoting societal gender norms?
Got all that? Makes perfect sense, right? I digress.
Eat shit...I mean...eat this video, hypocritical Progressive idiots. People living in the real world saw ISIS coming a long time ago.
Shame on you for your elitist mocking of what eventually came to be true. I guess that's our fault too, right?
