  16.  @TheStoic84  This alludes to a false binary and it exactly the kind of mendacious logic that Progressive slavers use. Progressivism has very specific doctrines. Defining progress is what matters. Progressives define "progress" as putting teh right leaders in charge. They believe in Darwinism and "technology" as forces that must be managed "fairly." IOW< the key to "progress" is fairness, and requires "altruistic elites" that understand the mystical truth of Darwinian "science" and what Dawkins now calls "the selfish gene." You might also call it scientific demagoguery but they usuall just call it "social justice' now. The republic view of "progress" is driven by liberty under the rule of law. They absolutely have always focused on threats to liberty under the rule of law. Equal application of the law must be absolute and transparent to maintain those stated values and standards. Slavery was always a threat to the rule of law. Anything that threatens any human's due process rights is a threat to the entire republic. Hence "republican progress" is defined by defending the Consitution's values, not by raising taxes and paying for controversial "welfare" programs. However, paying for "safety net" social programs, and vetting them seriously, is supportive of liberty under the rule of law because it is absolutely possible for factions to become disenfranchised permanently by institutions other than slavery. The legitimate questions always pertain to how to solve those problems without causing worse.
