OK once again: Progressivism is an ideology of corporatism, war, and puritanical statism. Conservatism is an ideology of corporatism, war, and puritanial statism. Liberalism was good up until FDR or so, but then became an ideology of corporatism, war, and puritanical statism. There are differences among these groups, but if you oppose corporatism, war, and puritanical statism, you are a libertarian, or a radical, or an anarchist, or an individualist, or maybe a paleocon (a misnomer). Heck, even "socialist" used to mean pro-liberty, in a sense. But conservatism and progressivism? They were always on the side of the ruling class and always will be.
