A style of music that emerged in the 2000's.

Regressive Liberal 

Another words for Social Justice Warrior. They are the mirror equivalent to the left what the conservative far right is the the republican party.
Regressive liberals are usually people who's mental genders & sexualities are so obscure that even the LGBT didn't represent them, but they've hijacked that as well & have expanded it.

Regressive liberals are usually sexist or racist but argue that only men can be sexist & that only caucasians can be racist.

Regressive liberals value feelings over facts. They want to make words that hurt their feelings illegal. They want to force people to use their preferred gender pronouns. They want to be given respect without having to earn it.

Regressive liberals tents to be in their teens & twenties, so they're incredibly hormonal with unchecked rage & are easier to trigger than a bull in a shop that only sells red dishes.

Rather than vote for a candidate that represents their actual political interests, regressive liberals tend to vote for candidates who represent their gender, race, or sexual preference.

Going as far as to except totalitarian regimes in their country as long as such a regime regresses the social changes made in the country back to time that social conservatives deem acceptable, and then proceeding to lock out any opposition groups from being able to change things back. This includes rigging representation in the country's government to not represent any social and political groups that oppose them.
