:Hold up, progressive is correlated to Communist? That's funny, because I thought the Progressive Movement at its inception was fiercely anti-Communist; after all, it was a leftist civil war, competing for the same voter bases. —[[User:LT|<code><span style="background:#FF8181">'''LT'''</span></code>]] '''''[[User talk:LT|<sup>(Matthew 26:52)</sup>]]''''' Monday, 00:36, May 15, 2023 (EDT)

Honestly you could make the argument the Progressive Movement was never anti-communist to begin with with people like Henry Wallace. When Woodrow Wilson tried to arrest anti-WWI protestors who were supposedly "radicals" through the Sedition Act of 1918, you could make the argument he ironically did more to bring America closer to communism by giving the central government more power and allowing it to take away the right to free speech, something that is a common phenomenon in communist countries after all. -[[User:Mr. Nationalist|Mr. Nationalist]] ([[User talk:Mr. Nationalist|talk]]) 01:27, May 15, 2023 (EDT)
