Let's stop being "progressives"

Okay, so you all know by now that the Democratic Party has become Republican Party Two and that there's nothing for "progressives" but vote-shaming between here and November. But that's okay! The "progressives" have a great repertoire of cliches, those great spoonfuls of sugar which will help the Biden-medicine go down. Below, I will discuss these cliches in context:

"Baby steps." "Incrementalism."

A Humanist Victory!

I just received an e-mail from the American Humanist Association apprising me of the fact that President Obama had signed H.R. 1150, the Frank R. Wolf International Religious Freedom Act, into law. Intended to foster and strengthen religious freedom abroad, it is also the first US law which includes protections specifically for "non-theists, humanists, and atheists."
