Another comment that is spot on. One reason Progressivism is so popular is that in whatever "cause" you are behind, you are the enlightened one while everyone else that doesnt support your cause is backwards, ignorant, and/or stupid.

You dont get the same kind of feelings for supporting individual liberty(although I will admit some libertarians do come across as condescending at times). What you are judged on is your merit. If you have nothing to show for your own self, you have no way to feel like you are above anyone else. This doesnt fly with most people nowadays.

You mean like when conservatives say liberals are "low information voters" or say blacks stay on the plantation? Generalizing and Condescending like that?
