What’s the point of always replying in bad faith? I honestly don’t understand what you get out of this other than feeling the satisfaction of trolling someone else.

I’m not. I’m serious about what I am saying. I’m more curious than anything as to what you think because we have such widely different conceptions of policy. I’m truly trying to understand where is the hole in my reasoning.

Ah we’re not. If I used the word progressive the way it means what it means in policy and your argument is to put the word in a vacuum (no words exist in a vacuum) then say the word is objectively useless, and then purposely misunderstand an argument about academia to make it about telos vs the word. That is simply not what someone who is curious does. This is either called arguing in bad faith or having a cognitive disorder.

Words have meaning, not all meanings are universally agreed upon. You’re ignoring everything I’ve said so far. Are you by any chance borrowing from this progressive definition?
