Communism vs Progressivism

Updated: Apr 27


Communism: Hates capitalism, blames it for all the world’s problems, goal is to end it.

Progressivism: Hates capitalism, blames it for all the world’s problems, goal is to end it.





Communism: Seeks to abolish religion, needs citizens to “worship” state.

Progressivism: Mocks religion (at best). Hostile and seeks to abolish it (at worst).



Communism: Seizes private property.

Progressivism: Sees private property as “oppression”.



Communism: Wants to “rescue education from the ruling class."

Progressivism: Claims education has been “whitewashed” by white colonizers.



Communism: Views nuclear family as oppressive product of capitalism and seeks to abolish it.

Progressivism: Continues to redefine family, views people who believe in nuclear family as.... oppressive.



Communism: Transfers some powers of arrest from police to social agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders.

Progressivism: Want to abolish police, use social services to respond to 911 calls especially in places where police interaction have been negative.



Communism: Believes human behavior can be molded and seeks to create utopia.

Progressivism: Believes America was built on systematic oppression, wants to create new system.



Communism: A revolution is needed to overthrow capitalism and create utopia.

Progressivism: America is inherently evil. The Constitution is an obstacle to progressives trying to create utopia.



Communism: The end justifies the means, no matter how dishonest, unlawful or violent it gets.

Progressivism: Lawbreaking is justifiable if done in the name of social justice. Afterall"where [does] it say protesters are supposed to be polite and peaceful?"

I'm Ajalon; mother of three, army wife, avid traveler and horrible crafter who is tired of all the negativity! So I write about politics, culture, faith and family in a way that leaves you edified, educated and empowered. (Yes...even about politics.)
