There is a real problem in today's society which is the today's so called progressives worldview and divisive mentality.

Don't you find that there's a fair bit of irony in the statement you just made?

Nope. What is the irony?

You're lamenting divisiveness while blaming one group as the sole source of the problem. That itself is divisive.

Yeah I corrected myself to "so called progressives". They are really nihilists instead.

Nothing about your correction erases the irony.

Edit: It should be pointed out that your other posts in this thread only further highlight your own divisiveness.

So the claim is that no one group can be singled out as a cause of division? That means one would be unable to ever say that some person or group of people is divisive, which means there's no such thing as divisive speech (since labeling anything as such is apparently itself so divisive that one becomes a hypocrit).

You should not be reading my statement as an absolute; it is circumstantial/contextual.

>So the claim is that no one group can be singled out as a cause of division?

Come on, it's probably true for a lot of things.
