"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh

Wow! You could have knocked me over with a feather!
This is what Ace, among many other observers, has been saying for years.

We know what WE mean by those terms and that it's true, but the article itself isn't specific. Quoting George Monbiot? Progressivism itself - the belief in Progress - was always full of ambiguous waffle starting with progressivism's grand-daddy GWF Hegel (who proposed a secular 'end of history' parallel with the Biblical salvation one).
Some say the Wilsonian progressives were influenced by English translations of Hegel, but others disagree. Straussian 'neocons' are explicitly following Hegel. It affects both left and right. So lumping them all together as 'neoliberals' is ok, potato potahto.
I just look for the mark of the cloven hoof, and sniff out the brimstone. Progressivism, Leftism, whatever form this heresy-cum-dominant pseudo-religion takes, it is clearly branded and it reeks of evil.

Just the other day I was wondering whatever happened to George Moonbat, haven't heard anything out of him lately. I guess he's still kicking.
I forgot 'George Moonbat', that takes me back to Tim Blair days.
Yes Paco, cloven hoof and brimstone sums it up.
