The correct term should be "oppressive," not "progressive," because statist/progressive/totalitarian governments have to oppress individual freedom in order to force people to conform to the will of the state, which invariably just ends up in one form or another of enslavement, from confiscation and "redistribution" of earnings all the way up to gulags and show trials.
Never adopt your opponent's use of the word "choice." Instead, use the word "abortion" -- or better yet, "no choice." Certainly the unborn gets no choice. Never let them use "fairness," as in "fairness doctrine"; instead, use the word "unfairness." Never let them use the term "social justice"; instead, use the term "social control." Never let them use "working poor" because that assumes that only poor people work. Never let them use "climate change"; instead, say "climate hoax." Never let them use the term "health care reform," and instead say "health care takeover." Think about every word used, and if any term is tactically advantageous to the progressive cause, then refuse to use it. Always correct them, every single time -- otherwise, you cannot win this war of ideas. And never, ever let them call themselves "progressives" when in reality they are "oppressives."
