Sanders: "We’re here in so-called conservative Utah, and tomorrow we’ll be in Idaho—because we believe that in every state in this country, people are prepared to stand up and fight back"

The internet has been both a blessing and a curse for progressive movements like it gives a voice to amazing intelligent people who would never normally get a platform

It also gives a voice to stupid people who say the most stupid stuff I literally just watched a video of someone saying “a man who doesn’t like Taylor swift hates all women”

So I was thinking of how the Capitol would think on sexual/gender identity and general progressive ideas, and my conclusion became a TBOSAS fix it. Somehow.

Basically, I feel like the districts are all some flavor of “couldn’t give any less of a damn”. Even including my personal headcanons about what religion, spirituality or lack thereof every district has, I feel like they’d all be the progressive kind of “live and let live” believers. I think this because I feel like all of them are too busy dying and suffering to bother with any of that. They’re all in the same oppression boat after all, so like- if the person giving the kids what little education is available in the districts happens to be trans, who gives one? Life’s hard enough already, why waste time debating who’s about to date who when you need to get food on the table for the week?

Instead, it’s the Capitol that’s got a phobia problem. Specifically in the older generations. Those previous generations are very into searching for any reason to be “better” or “superior” to as many people as possible, and identity is just one of the ways to do that. Those who don’t follow etiquette or follow the standard are “weird” and therefore inferior.

Now, this changes with the younger generation, which is more progressive and wants acceptance. They think the districts are even more anti-LGBTQ+ than the older generations, but then the 10th hunger games mentorship program happens. They meet their tributes and realize the districts have progressed far beyond where the Capitol is, and it makes them realize that blindly believing the Districts are behind on everything is wrong and learn more about the districts. If anything, the districts are far more advanced in terms of kindness and understanding towards other human beings and belief systems, since all the tributes tolerate each other’s differing beliefs perfectly well without problems. They and their fellow teenagers all decide the Capitol could take a few pointers from the districts, actually, and start to fight against the mistreatment of the districts if only because they want the older generations to become more progressive with the help of the districts. Naturally, this leads to protests against the games and the end of Gaul’s career.

Idk how this happened uuuhhmmmmm yeah

Anyone in the Long Island, NY area that is interested in getting involved in local progressive change, send me a message!

There are no major organizations in the area for progressive and liberal politics so I'm looking to start a community.

Avonlea’s idea of Progressive movement

It’s honesty interesting that the progressive movement kicked out Marilla Cuthbert for Anne’s accidently calling Prissy an “tease” for flirting with Mr. Phillips …. Oh wait that’s not correct.   When Anne innocently talked opening about sex between a husband and wife (because she honesty thought all kids heard their own parents having sex before).   Wham bam the progressive parenting movement in Avonlea very quickly turns their backs on Marilla … and helps isolate Anne.   (How is the libel progressive movement better than the closed off conservative movement?)

“It’s a shame progressive parenting doesn’t seem to include compassion,” Marilla responds, emphasizing Anne’s troubled past. A child that age shouldn’t be privy to the facts of life, but Anne has endured much more than the average girl.

Now on to Miss Muriel Stacey treatment within the progressive movement of Avonlea.

The progressive parenting movement looked down at Miss Stacey from the first moment she walked into the parlor all disheveled.   With oil on her hands because she fixed her moto bike.   Now you would think that with the progressive movement would embrace Miss Muriel Stacey … that Miss Muriel Stacey fully embraces and represents the progressive moment for women.   For feminism.   But no they just look down on her and turn their backs on her.
