Progressive

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."

Pay-to-progress

It's another, less significant version of pay-to-win. It might be a free game at first glance, but after playing for a few levels it becomes pay-to-win because things would get increasingly harder which forces you to pay.
Most of these are mobile games, as PC game makers would rather charge you, but iirc some takes form of DLCs.

Capitalism, eh?
Ethan: Dude I cannot break this level it is so goddamn hard!
Me: These MMORPGs are pay-to-progress man, if you don't pay, you just can never break this level. Things that are free are the most expensive, you know.

South Park Progressive

Someone who's incredibly edgy for the reactions they get but is actually progressive and accepting on the inside... when you get to know them. This is in the same vein about how the creators of South Park are very liberal but use derogatory humor to express their views and get a reaction.
Friend 1: "Did Joey seriously make a 9/11 joke then make an explosion noise?"
Friend 2: "Ya, but he's a South Park progressive. He likes to be offensive but actually has very liberal views despite his humor."
