Why I Left the Left

When talking to someone on the left, they may tell you they are “progressive.” When you ask what they mean by that, they will likely say something along the lines of how they support minorities or the rights of women or children or really anyone other than themselves.

Because they believe they support these other individuals they will also assume they are not only right, but that you are against these things and are wrong. After all, if they are a “progressive” liberal, it obviously means you are regressive.

The major problem with this is liberals are actually feeding themselves into this progressive belief, when in all actuality, they are only lying to themselves about who they are and what they stand for.

In order for the liberal left to actually be for minorities and people of different religions, they need to be open to people with varying thoughts. A person who is Christian may look at certain ideas or topics differently than someone who is Jewish or Islamic. Since they say they support people of different faith, it obviously means they are progressive. The problem here though is they don’t actually support people of varying viewpoints. They prevent speakers with different ideas from appearing on college campuses or they boo a joke because it digs at differing ideas.

Does that sound progressive?

If you don’t think that sounds progressive you’re not alone. You know who else doesn’t? Dave Rubin, a former liberal. Rubin was tired of the hypocritical left and couldn’t stand the party anymore so he left the left. Check out what he has to say about the “progressive” left.
