We have a winner. I've not been on DU long, but the behavior here is not much different than the comment section of any left-wing website. The "Super-Dooper-REAL Progressives" are usually the ones beating their chests and gnashing their teeth and otherwise putting on a big show for all to see, as if being seen as progressive matters more than actually being a progressive person.

But from a movement that has thrown women, minorities, and immigrants under the bus at every opportunity in pursuit of their Free Everything monetary-based "revolution," this is not surprising behavior, because they genuinely are less progressive than they actually appear to be.
