applying current morals and sociopolitical judgements to situations without considering historical or social context
when a kid says John Lennon is a racist because he wrote a song called “woman is the n word of the world” without recognizing the context and purpose of the vulgar lyric. It’s not that I’m not woke- it’s that you’re being progressively ignorant. (progressive ignorance)

Get the Shanker on the prick of progress mug.What is classified as "progressive" varies between cultures, but the gist of what it encompasses is a desire to "progress" society; i.e., to create a society that is based on the detachment from traditional norms and practices. Examples of ideas that are considered "progressive" are:
- Expansive LGBTQ rights
- Protecting minorities from discrimination
- Tolerance of atypical gender expression
- Miscellaneous left-wing ideas such as progressive taxation

"Progressivism is the scourge of society; it seeks to tear out the foundations of our communities that have kept us satiated for centuries. It's like uprooting a plant from its pot and replacing the soil with rocks. It promotes degeneracy in all corners of the public: the streets, the businesses, the bathrooms, and even the schools. It can only cause collapse."
"Being progressive may be the only measure we have to combat the waves of hatred that constantly plagues our society. Some may feel a sense of bitter nostalgia recalling the "good ol' days" when everything was simpler, but they need to be reminded that very few were treated equally or with proper respect and compassion during those times. We need to ensure a society that guarantees safety for not only oppressed individuals, but for all people."

Her sassy remark to the store clerk was a sure sign of sassive-progressive behavior. The clerk will no longer comment on her hair bun, that's for damn sure.
