I don't see any progressives here. Nobody here wants to compel people to do anything except maybe pay more in taxes.
They generally just want people to be tolerant of others. I'd say this place is full of liberals.
Progressives think they know how society ought to be arranged. They'll take care of your health care, they'll tell you what you can and can't say, they'll enforce fairness, and if you're unwilling* to care for yourself, they've got an administrative architecture of programs and incentives that will nanny you properly. (And if you're willing to care for yourself in a way they don't like, they'll fix that.)
Progressives know we're not wise enough to manage ourselves alone. But don't worry. They're benevolent. Handicappers General, "nudging" us in the right direction.
