@DoubleDuce, I didn’t want to wade into the abortion debate in the other thread with this, and it fits better here. This essay helped me a little bit in trying to understand where Progressives are coming from. You may already know the history.
You can scroll down to the numbers, where they talk about rights and the roll of government. Points one and two are especially pertinent. Completely different ideology about where rights and freedoms come from for sure. It’s hard for me to relate to it at all.
