Daniel M. - Salem, MA

True progressives are committed to tolerance, debate and justice. To survive and thrive together, tolerance for all people regardless of anything about them except intolerance is essential.To learn what true tolerance is, debate is essential.To arrive at a time and place where tolerance is habitually practiced and debate is welcomed, justice is the essential beacon. Tolerance, the willingness to listen, and justice, are facets of love.People who do not accept this must keep themselves and everything around them the same. This is conservatism. They are not bad, but merely find the exercise of love too difficult.
