Well intended progressive Individuals or groups that believe progress is a never-ending liner upward trend. They use their strong beliefs in an ideal future work to move society towards a defined goal, only to over shoot it and begin to regress through more extreme views until hardly distinguishable from those who they initially blamed. This results in fracturing of the fundamental ideas that started the movement, as to alienate people formally for the cause and to push away others due to the increase of rhetoric.
I used to believe in this cause, but due to regressive activism, I no longer align with their views.
