Clearing up something. Social progressivism is singing Kumbaya, which is so easy even Nancy Pelosi embraces it. Economic progressivism is Bernie, and is not easy since folks like Pelosi and Bloomberg are dead set against it. Have your Kumbaya, but let my fortune alone being the operative mantra so that there really is only economic progressivism since if you honestly balance the money better society will fall into respecting one another since nobody is fucking everybody else too badly. A sidebar item helps understanding:

Except other extreme fascists.
Musk, as an innovater, is technologically progressive. As one taking and enjoying more than a fair share, he is as throwback anti-progressive as they come.
Social progressives lost the last Presidential election. Big time. As if insincere, since they have done zippo for economic reform when having power. They pose, but deliver nothing but token insult and disdain for those wanting something real that you can take to the bank.
Economic progressives have never had a chance, FDR being best they ever got, and FDR's primary goal was to save capitalism from collapse for the evil that it spawned since social conservatives and in-poitics social progressives want the bulk of the people fucked over to better serve accretion of wealth by the few - but a few large enough to include themselves.
Pelosi trades her shares while having insider information. Musk throws his weight around. Only the economic progressives really matter, since they are universally opposed by money whereas social progressives, who really gives a shit besides tattooed Hegseth and like minded bent-mind bigots, or other poseurs.
Fairness over money is why Luigi pulled the trigger and unfairness over money is why what's-his-name, the pirate, caught fire and died. And what some hoped for in voting Trump-Vance into office. Good luck for them so voting if they were right and Trump-Vance delivers something besides Kash Patel.
