HUGE difference!

While I promote tolerance at all levels, that is a far cry from the progressive notions of acceptance and endorsement.

To my way of thinking, the very real ‘tribal’/familial/group/religious alignments cannot be done away with. While it is true humans need human contact, we always first and foremost find out allegiances in those we most resemble, i.e., our ‘tribal’/familial/group/religious alignment.

That will never change.

Thus, tolerance ought to be the real goal. I do believe many more conservatives would be open to liberal ideas if that were the goal. A lot of people fear anything beyond tolerance (sincere) detracts from their identity as part of the group.

That’s the simple version.

There is also the matter of group dynamics in which both liberal and conservative groups are remarkably alike.

Okay…

Sorry I was sort of thrown because I’m sure to A LOT of people “Social Liberal” and “Social Progressive” means the exact same thing…

Can you give me some pin point examples of how the two different on actual political issues, I’m interested in learning more…
